Overview
Acquired HIV drug resistance arises when the human immunodeficiency virus develops the ability to withstand the antiretroviral drugs being used to treat it, after a person has started therapy. It typically emerges when viral replication is not fully suppressed, for example because of inadequate drug levels, suboptimal regimens, or incomplete adherence, allowing resistant viral variants to be selected and to predominate. Acquired resistance can compromise treatment, requiring changes in regimen, and monitoring for it is important for sustaining the effectiveness of antiretroviral therapy. Within Clinical Research In HIV AIDS And Prevention, research relevant to acquired HIV drug resistance includes a study of human immunodeficiency virus drug resistance and baseline characteristics among antiretroviral-therapy-experienced children and adolescents under care in Hurungwe, Zimbabwe, which directly examines resistance in treated patients. Related work on the psychosocial factors influencing antiretroviral treatment adherence addresses a key driver of how acquired resistance can develop. Together these studies illuminate the emergence and management of resistance during HIV treatment. This page gathers peer-reviewed, open-access research relevant to acquired HIV drug resistance and antiretroviral therapy.
