Resistance Mutations in Subtype C HIV Type 1 Isolates from Indian Patients of Mumbai Receiving NRTIs Plus NNRTIs and Experiencing a Treatment Failure: Resistance to AR

Abstract: We present here the first data available on resistance to nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs) and nonnucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTIs) in India. In these subtype C isolates, we have observed most of the mutations noted in reverse transcriptase (RT) for subtype B with some additional substitutions (at positions 98, 203, 208, and 221) that will warrant attention in the algorithms used.

“…In our study, 53.3 % of the patients (16 of 30 non-responsive patients) were on a treatment regimen containing 3TC, and none of them exhibited the Q151M mutation. Similar findings have been reported in previous publications from India [26,42]. One of the drug-naive patients in the current study, however, showed the Q151M mutation, which again suggests transmitted resistance.…”

“…In our study, the majority of the sequences obtained from the patients, all but four, were identified as subtype C (96 %) based on the reverse transcriptase gene sequence and phylogenetic analysis. As in our study, along with subtype C, subtype A1 has been reported in other studies to be a minor subtype [3,13,26,42]. The pattern of clustering shows evolutionary relatedness among the sequences.…”

“…Previous publications from India have highlighted the absence or low prevalence of the Q151M mutation. [4,5] Based on data from the West from previously published studies, M184V was the most commonly observed mutation in patients on NRTIs. [9] We have very limited data but the mutational patterns observed appear similar to published data.…”

“…[9] We have very limited data but the mutational patterns observed appear similar to published data. [4,5,11] One of the worrying factors is a recent report from western India which documented M41L, D67N, M184V, and A98G in the RT gene of treatment naïve individuals. [15] Mutations conferring resistance to NNRTIs were also seen, with one strain showing resistance only to NNRTIs.…”

“…This suggested that subtype C could have a lower genetic barrier to resistance to NNRTIs than subtype B, and that this V106M mutation could be more frequent in subtype C infected patients failing therapy, than in subtype B infected patients. Indeed, the clinical importance of the V106M mutation in non-B subtypes has been confirmed in several studies showing that V106M is more frequently seen in subtype C (and CRF01_AE) after therapy with EFV or NVP (Deshpande et al, 2007;Hsu et al, 2005;Marconi et al, 2008;Rajesh et al, 2009). The G190A mutation was also relatively more frequent in subtype C Indian and Israeli patients failling NNRTI-based regimens than in subtype B (Deshpande et al, 2007;Grossman et al, 2004).…”
