Pooled ECHO and THRIVE: summary of resistance findings *One VFres occurred after Week 96 in RPV group (E138K, K219E, M184I); †At least one emergent NNRTI RAM (from the NNRTI RAM list)1 or IAS-USA N(t)RTI2 RAM 1Tambuyzer L et al.

Compensatory effect of E138K on the replication capacity (RC) of M184I/V. • The RC of both E138K and M184I are each decreased by 3-fold compared to wild-type and decreased by 2-fold for M184V. • There is no difference in RC of double mutants E138K/M184I or E138K/M184Vc compared to wild-type .
What is the proper definition of: Genetic barrier for resistance? Number of mutations needed for a minimal level of resistance Number of mutations needed for resistance > 10-fold Time to development of clinically relevant resistance Duration of exposure to drug in order for resistance to occur Number of viral replicative cycles required to overcome inhibition by a drug. All of the above
Number of mutations needed for a minimal level of resistance or resistance > 10-fold ClassDrugMutationFold-change NNRTI Nevirapine Y181C >100 Efavirenz K103N >100 N(t)RTI 3TC M184V >100 Tenofovir K65R ≈ 3-fold Abacavir L74V 3-5 fold PI Darunavir >10 mutations 5-20 fold Lopinavir >8 mutations 5-20 fold
Time to development of clinically relevant resistance 1. Single dose NVP. Weeks? 2. Triple therapy. Only in cases of adherence? 3. With PIs, resistance based on mutations in PR is rare, even in cases of viral load rebound. What about cleavage site mutations in gag? Monitoring of cleavage site mutations is uncommon. 4. Oftentimes, compensatory mutations serve to increase levels of resistance while simultaneously restoring viral fitness that may have been impaired by a primary mutation, e.g. (a) zidovudine, the various TAM pathways; (b) the 148/140 mutational pathway for raltegravir and elvitegravir.
5. Does the concept of genetic barrier apply to transmitted resistance? E.g. K103N, TAMs, M184V (-the latter is commonly deselected after transmission).

Clinical resistance has occurred in regard to every HIV drug developed until now and therefore must continue to occur for all future medications as well.

At the very least, a drug that does not easily select for drug resistance should be intolerant of ongoing HIV transmission so long as patients remain adherent to therapy.
