Effect of Mutations at Position E138 in HIV-1 Reverse Transcriptase on Phenotypic Susceptibility and Virologic Response to Etravirine

The contribution of E138 mutations to etravirine resistance was investigated. Amino acids at position E138 after failure with etravirine in DUET were A (n = 1), G (n = 5), K (n = 3), P (n = 1), Q (n = 5), and V (n = 2). At baseline, only E138A and Q were found at 3.0% and 2.5%, respectively. Virolog... View More
