치료 경험이 없는 HIV 감염자에서의 항바이러스제 일차 내성 분석: 한국HIV/AIDS 코호트 연구

Abstract

Primary anti-retroviral resistance is considered one of the major problems of HIV treatment. Contrary to reports from western countries, prior Korean studies have reported a relatively low primary resistance rate (less than 5%). Based on Korean HIV/AIDS cohort data, we estimated the primary resistance rate among treatment-nave HIV- infected patients. According to the results, the primary resistance rate was higher (8.8%) than reported previously in Korean studies. However, the major PI mutation was not found.
