The HIV Network for Prevention Trials (HIVNET) 012 trial showed that NVP resistance (NVPR) emerged in some women and children after the administration of single-dose nevirapine (SD-NVP). We tested whether K103N-containing human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-1 variants persisted in women and infants 1 year or more after the administration of SD-NVP.
We analyzed samples from 9 women and 5 infants in HIVNET 012 who had NVPR 6-8 weeks after the administration of SD-NVP. Samples were analyzed with the ViroSeq system and with 2 sensitive resistance assays, LigAmp and TyHRT.
ViroSeq detected the K103N mutation in 8 of 9 women and in 2 of 5 infants. LigAmp detected the K103N mutation at low levels in 8 of 9 women and in 4 of 5 infants. K103N was not detected by ViroSeq 12-24 months after the administration of SD-NVP but was detected by LigAmp in 3 of 9 women and in 1 of 5 infants. K103N was also detected in those samples by use of the TyHRT assay.
K103N-containing variants persist in some women and infants for 1 year or more after the administration of SD-NVP. Sensitive resistance assays may provide new insight into the impact of antiretroviral drug exposure on HIV-1 evolution.
艾滋病预防试验网络(HIVNET)012试验表明,单剂量奈韦拉平(SD-NVP)给药后,部分妇女和儿童出现了奈韦拉平耐药(NVPR)。我们测试了含K103N的人类免疫缺陷病毒(HIV)-1变体在SD-NVP给药后1年或更长时间内是否在妇女和婴儿体内持续存在。
我们分析了HIVNET 012中9名妇女和5名婴儿的样本,这些妇女和婴儿在SD-NVP给药后6-8周出现了NVPR。使用ViroSeq系统和两种敏感的耐药性检测方法LigAmp和TyHRT对样本进行分析。
ViroSeq在9名妇女中的8名和5名婴儿中的2名中检测到K103N突变。LigAmp在9名妇女中的8名和5名婴儿中的4名中检测到低水平的K103N突变。SD-NVP给药后12-24个月,ViroSeq未检测到K103N,但LigAmp在9名妇女中的3名和5名婴儿中的1名中检测到了K103N。使用TyHRT检测方法在这些样本中也检测到了K103N。
含K103N的变体在SD-NVP给药后在部分妇女和婴儿体内持续存在1年或更长时间。敏感的耐药性检测方法可能为抗逆转录病毒药物暴露对HIV-1进化的影响提供新的见解。
