Association between phenotypic resistance and virologic response to mega-HAART regimen in patients from the Frankfurt HIV Cohort V Miller, A Cozzi-Lepri, K Hertogs, P Gute, B Larder, S Bloor, C Rottmann, AN Phillips, S Staszewski
Introduction • The Frankfurt HIV Cohort consists of all patients attending the clinic who have presented at least once since Jan 1, 1995 • data pertaining to antiretroviral history, immune status, HIV-1 viral load, HIV-associated clinical events and demographics are collected prospectively • patients with multiple treatment failures were treated with salvage regimen consisting of 6 or more antiretroviral drugs • phenotypic resistance tests were performed from stored plasma samples
Patients & Methods • 50 patients met the definition criteria and the DAP requirements • viral load: Amplicor • resistance: Antivirogram (recombinant virus based phenotypic assay) • virologic failure: > 400 copies/week 24 window • statistical analysis: as described per DAP
Study Population: Baseline characteristics Characteristic Median Range HIV RNA(log10 copies/ml) 5.52 3.40 - 6.70 CD4 cell count (cells/mm3) 95 2 - 587 Time on HAART (months) 18.3 1.7-53.5

Conclusion • in this retrospective analysis based on a small group of extensively experienced patients, phenotypic resistance was a significant predictor of virologic response, independent of baseline viral load and previous antiretroviral history • either a 4-fold or a 10-fold cut-off provided significant independent information • in models looking at resistance within individual drug classes, resistance to PI was more predictive than resistance to NRTI
