Predicted levels of drug resistance according to the HIVdb genotypic resistance interpretation system: susceptible (1); potential low-level resistance (2); low-level resistance (3); intermediate resistance (4); high-level resistance (5). Percent mixtures are shown in parentheses.
DRM, drug resistance mutation; EFV, efavirenz; ETR, etravirine; NGS, next-generation sequencing; NNRTI, non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor; PR, protease; RPV, rilpivirine; RT, reverse transcriptase; SID, sample ID.
Sample 222 is subtype C, and sample 263 is subtype CRF01_AE. All other samples listed in this table are subtype B.
