Virologic suppression was defined as ≤400 copies HIV-RNA/ml and detectable viral load and virologic failure were defined as >400 copies HIV-RNA/ml.
Transmitted drug resistance (TDR) mutations were defined by the WHO 2009 surveillance mutation list.
Drugs in initial regimen that were contraindicated with pretherapy resistance profiles.
Detailed baseline characteristics, resistance profiles, treatment history, and virologic consequences of the 15 cases of WHO-defined transmitted drug resistance (TDR) reported in this study.
M, male; AZT, zidovudine; LPV, lopinavir; TDF, tenofovir; FTC, emtricitabine; for other abbreviations see Table 1.
