Characterization of two HIV-1 infectors during initial antiretroviral treatment, and the emergence of phenotypic resistance in reverse transcriptase-associated mutation patterns.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundHighly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) is recommended to control the infection of HIV-1. HIV-1 drug resistance becomes an obstacle to HAART due to the accumulation of specific mutations in the RT coding region. The development of resistance mutations may be more complex than previously thought.
methodsWe followed two HIV-1 infectors from a HIV-1 drug resistance surveillance cohort in Henan province and evaluated CD4+ T-cell number and viral load thereafter at ten time-periods and characterized their reverse transcriptase-associated mutation patterns at each time point. Then we constructed the recombinant virus strains with these mutation patterns to mimick the viruses and test the phenotypic resistance caused by the mutation patterns on TZM-b1 cells.
resultsCD4+ T-cell number initially increased and then decreased rapidly, while viral load decreased and then dropped sharply during initial antiretroviral treatment. The number of mutations and the combination patterns of mutations increased over time. According to the phenotypic resistance performed by recombinant virus strains, VirusT215Y/V179E/Y181C/H221Y exhibited high levels of resistance to EFV (5.57-fold), and T215Y/V179E-containing virus increased 20.20-fold in AZT resistance (p < 0.01). VirusT215Y/V179E/Y181C increased markedly in EFV resistance (p < 0.01). The IC50 for VirusT215Y/V179E/H221Y was similar to that for VirusT215Y/V179E/Y181C. VirusT215Y/K103N/Y181C/H221Y induced a dramatic IC50 increase of all the four agents (Efavirenz EFV, Zidovudine AZT, Lamivudine 3TC, and Stavudine d4T) (p < 0.01). As for VirusT215Y/K103N/Y181C, only the IC50 of EFV was significantly increased. T215Y/K103N resulted in a 26.36-fold increase in EFV (p < 0.01). T215Y/K103N/H221Y significantly increased the resistance to AZT and 3TC. The IC50 of EFV with T215Y/V179E was lower than with T215Y/K103N (F = 93.10, P < 0.0001). With T215Y/V179E, Y181C significantly increase in EFV resistance, while the interaction between 181 and 221 in EFV was not statistically significant (F = 1.20, P = 0.3052). With T215Y/K103N, neither H221Y nor Y181C showed a significant increase in EFV resistance, but the interaction between 181 and 221 was statistically significant (F = 38.12, P = 0.0003).
conclusionsData in this study suggests that pathways of viral evolution toward drug resistance appear to proceed through distinct steps and at different rates. Phenotypic resistance using recombinant virus strains with different combination of mutation patterns reveals that interactions among mutations may provide information on the impact of these mutations on drug resistance. All the result provides reference to optimize clinical treatment schedule.
