Antiretroviral Drug Resistance Among Children and Youth in the United States With Perinatal HIV
Abstract
Among 234 US youths with perinatal human immunodeficiency virus, 75% had antiretroviral resistance, substantially higher than that of the reference laboratory overall (36%-44%). Resistance to newer antiretrovirals and to all antiretrovirals in a class was uncommon. The only factor independently associated with future resistance was a higher peak viral load.
Keywords: adolescents; antiviral resistance; children; human immunodeficiency virus; perinatal infection.
