Abstract
BACKGROUND: Efavirenz (EFV)-based regimens select broad drug resistance to nonnucleoside reverse-transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTIs), limiting the effectiveness of EFV and other NNRTIs. The duration, persistence, and decay of drug resistance mutations (DRMs) in the proviral reservoir is not well defined.Entities:

aThe first 8 participants from ACTG 364 had a long history of dual nucleoside treatment, and those from ACTG 5095 were naive. All participants received a second-line, boosted protease inhibitor-based regimen with suppression of viremia for up to 10 years during long-term follow-up (median, 3.6 years; IQR, 2.1–6.9 years). The last 2 columns indicate whether K103N was detected at the latest time point by Sanger and Illumina sequencing, respectively.
Figure 1.Frequency of participants with nonnucleoside reverse-transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI) and nucleoside reverse-transcriptase inhibitor (NRTI) mutations by time point as detected by Sanger sequencing. Percentage of participants with detectable NNRTI versus NRTI mutations at efavirenz (EFV) failure, early suppression (t1), midpoint suppression (t2), and latest suppression (t3). Mutations at EFV failure were detected in ribonucleic acid, whereas mutations identified after suppression were detected in proviral deoxyribonucleic acid.
Figure 2.Retention of drug resistance mutations in proviral deoxyribonucleic acid during suppression as detected by Sanger sequencing. Percentage of participants with detectable (A) nonnucleoside reverse-transcriptase inhibitor and (B) nucleoside reverse-transcriptase inhibitor mutations at efavirenz (EFV) failure, early suppression (t1), midpoint suppression (t2), and latest suppression (t3) detected through Sanger population sequencing.
Figure 3.K103N and M184V drug resistance mutations by time point as detected by Illumina sequencing. Level of K103N and M184V drug resistance mutations for each participant at early suppression (1), midpoint suppression (2), and latest suppression (3) detected through Illumina sequencing at a threshold of 2%. The 20% level is shown as a light blue line. All 3 time points were not available for all participants. Those with limited follow up had only a single time point. Time points at which K103N or M184V were also detected by Sanger sequencing are indicated by plus signs (+).
