Resistance to Integrase Inhibitors [PDF]
Integrase (IN) is a clinically validated target for the treatment of human immunodeficiency virus infections and raltegravir exhibits remarkable clinical activity. The next most advanced IN inhibitor is elvitegravir.

Clinical use of HIV integrase inhibitors: a systematic review and meta-analysis. [PDF]
BackgroundOptimal regimen choice of antiretroviral therapy is essential to achieve long-term clinical success. Integrase inhibitors have swiftly been adopted as part of current antiretroviral regimens. The purpose of this study was to review the evidence

Two cases of possible transmitted HIV drug resistance to all currently available integrase inhibitors, the Netherlands, 2025 [PDF]
Transmitted integrase inhibitor resistance in newly diagnosed HIV remains rare. We report two cases with baseline resistance to all currently available integrase inhibitors in the Netherlands in 2025.

HIV-1 integrase polymorphisms are associated with prior antiretroviral drug exposure [PDF]
In a recent summary of integrase sequences, primary integrase inhibitor mutations were rare. In a review of integrase inhibitor-naïve Australian HIV-1 sequences, primary mutations were not identified, although the accessory mutation G140S was detected. A

HIV Integrase Inhibitors Block Replication of Alpha-, Beta-, and Gammaherpesviruses [PDF]
The catalytic site of the HIV integrase is contained within an RNase H-like fold, and numerous drugs have been developed that bind to this site and inhibit its activity.

Retrovirus-based pseudotyped virus neutralisation assays overestimate neutralising activity in sera from participants receiving integrase inhibitors [PDF]
Retroviral pseudotype-based virus neutralisation assays are widely used to estimate functional immunity, but may be unsuitable for testing human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected individuals receiving integrase inhibitor treatment. We evaluated these

Weight gain and integrase inhibitors. [PDF]
Purpose of review Weight gain and obesity among people living with HIV (PLWH) is a serious problem that occurs often after initiation of antiretroviral therapy but may be worse with integrase strand transfer inhibitors (INSTIs).

As an important antiviral target, HIV-1 integrase plays a key role in the viral life cycle, and five integrase strand transfer inhibitors (INSTIs) have been approved for the treatment of HIV-1 infections so far.

Structural Studies of the HIV-1 Integrase Protein: Compound Screening and Characterization of a DNA-Binding Inhibitor. [PDF]
Understanding the HIV integrase protein and mechanisms of resistance to HIV integrase inhibitors is complicated by the lack of a full length HIV integrase crystal structure. Moreover, a lentiviral integrase structure with co-crystallised DNA has not been

Weight gain among treatment-naïve persons with HIV starting integrase inhibitors compared to non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors or protease inhibitors in a large observational cohort in the United States and Canada. [PDF]
IntroductionWeight gain following antiretroviral therapy (ART) initiation is common, potentially predisposing some persons with HIV (PWH) to cardio-metabolic disease.
