HIV-1 Genotypic Drug Resistance to Reverse Transcriptase, Protease, and Integrase Inhibitors, Plasma
Use
The test identifies HIV-1 genotypic mutations associated with resistance to nucleotide and non-nucleoside reverse-transcriptase inhibitors, protease inhibitors, and integrase strain transfer inhibitors. It aids in guiding initiation or change of combination antiretroviral therapy in individuals, including children, with HIV-1 infection. The detection and analysis of antiviral drug resistance-associated viral genotypic mutations can guide necessary changes to suppress viral replication, thereby improving patient outcome.
Special Instructions
Not provided.
Limitations
The ability of the assay to amplify the target and detect genotypic mutations is poor when the plasma HIV-1 viral load is less than 1000 copies/mL. Minor drug-resistant variants detection varies with viral load: 20% or higher at VL of 1000 copies/mL, 10% or higher at VL of 5000 copies/mL, and 5% or higher at VL of 15,000 copies/mL. Absence of resistance does not rule out resistant virus reservoirs in the individual. Expert interpretation is recommended due to result complexity, influenced by patient compliance, drug interactions, and other factors.
