Antiretroviral resistance in PrEP trials demonstrating efficacy of PrEP for HIV prevention

# of HIV seroconverters assigned FTC/TDF or TDF PrEP with HIV resistance Comparison: # of HIV infections averted in the PrEP trial (# of infections in placebo arm minus # of infections in FTC/TDF PrEP arm)
Individuals with seronegative acute HIV infection at enrollment Individuals who acquired HIV after enrollment
iPrEx 2/2 0/36 28
Partners PrEP 2/8 0/30 74
TDF2 1/1 0/10 16

Footnote: In iPrEx, the 2 subjects with seronegative acute HIV infection at the time of PrEP initiation both developed M184I/V mutations, conferring resistance to FTC. In Partners PrEP, of 8 subjects with seronegative acute HIV infection at the time of PrEP initiation, 2 developed antiretroviral resistance: one K65R substitution (conferring resistance to TDF) and one M184V substitution. In TDF2, 1 subject, also with seronegative acute HIV infection at the time of randomization to the FTC/TDF PrEP arm, developed both the K65R and M184V substitutions.
