TROCAI is a phenotypic tropism test developed using the virological response to a short-term exposure to maraviroc monotherapy (Maraviroc Clinical Test [MCT]). It was found that with TROCAI, a cutoff of <0.5% of dual/mixed viruses was needed to predict R5 HIV tropism. Here, we have validated TROCAI, using this cutoff, in a new cohort of 42 patients, finding a very high concordance between TROCAI and MCT (98%), and a good concordance (71 to 87%) with other genotypic/phenotypic methods.
TROCAI是一种表型嗜性检测方法,通过对短期使用马拉维若单药治疗(马拉维若临床试验[MCT])的病毒学反应来开发。研究发现,使用TROCAI时,需要将双重/混合病毒的截断值设定为<0.5%才能预测R5型HIV嗜性。在此,我们使用该截断值在42例新患者队列中对TROCAI进行了验证,发现TROCAI与MCT之间具有非常高的一致性(98%),与其他基因型/表型方法也具有良好的一致性(71%至87%)。
