Abstract

In a sample of 6,156 sequences from 4,183 persons, the top 30 patterns of protease inhibitor, nucleoside reverse transcriptase (RT) inhibitor, and nonnucleoside RT inhibitor mutations accounted for 55, 46, and 66%, respectively, of sequences with drug resistance mutations. Characterization of the phenotypic and clinical significance of these common patterns may lead to improved treatment recommendations for a large proportion of patients for whom antiretroviral therapy is failing.

Percentage of mutant sequences explained by the 553 different PI resistance mutation patterns (dashed line), 1,120 NRTI resistance mutation patterns (solid line), and 411 NNRTI resistance mutation patterns (dotted line). The top 30 PI, NRTI, and NNRTI resistance mutation patterns accounted for 55, 46, and 66%, respectively, of all sequences with drug resistance mutations.
