HIV pretreatment drug resistance among cisgender MSM and transgender women from Lima, Peru. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Int AIDS Soc, 2019
AbstractIntroductionTransmitted, or any pretreatment drug resistance (TDR, PDR) can compromise efficacy of first‐line antiretroviral therapy (ART). In Peru, genotypic resistance testing is not routinely performed before ART initiation, and estimated PDR prevalence prior to 2012 ranged from 1.0% to 4.7%. We aimed to update estimates of PDR prevalence in
