Treatment-Emergent Bictegravir Resistance in a Treatment-Naive Individual With HIV Infection: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Bictegravir/emtricitabine/tenofovir alafenamide (BIC/FTC/TAF) is a highly potent antiretroviral regimen with a high genetic barrier to resistance. Clinical trials have not reported treatment-emergent resistance in treatment-naive individuals. We describe a rare case of virologic failure with an emergent R263K integrase mutation in a treatment-naïve, adherent individual maintained on BIC/FTC/TAF. The patient achieved initial suppression for nearly two years before rebound viremia with R263K and D67N mutations. Following the regimen change and treatment of concurrent syphilis, viral suppression was re-established. This case highlights that emergent bictegravir resistance can occur in adherent, treatment-naïve patients, emphasizing the importance of continued resistance monitoring.
