Resistance Trends of Antiretroviral Agents in People with Human Immunodeficiency Virus in Korea, 2012 - 2020.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Domestic data on antiretroviral drug (ARV) resistance are limited, while alterations in ARV resistance are expected as the incidence of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection increases. We evaluated the ten-year change in ARV resistance in people with HIV (PWH) in Korea.

Materials and methods

Adults aged ≥19 years and diagnosed with HIV infection between January 2010 and December 2020 at a 750-bed municipal hospital were retrospectively reviewed. Data on clinical characteristics and resistance mutation test results were collected. The study population was divided into three-year intervals according to diagnosed year and their clinical characteristics were compared.

Results

A total of 248 PWH were analyzed, and ARV resistance was detected in 30 of them
