HIV Treatment Failure: Testing for HIV Resistance in Clinical Practice

Luc Perrin, Amalio Telenti

Perrin and Talenti discuss how to evaluate antiretroviral therapy for AIDS. Their examination of data from the Swiss HIV cohort study suggest that failure or success is more complicated than analysis of virus replication. These observations have an impact on discussions of the relevance of HIV resistance testing to clinical practice.

The authors are at the Laboratory of Virology, Division of Infectious Diseases, Geneva University Hospital, 1211 Geneva 14, and Division of Infectious Diseases, Centre Hospitalier Universitaire Vaudois, 1011 Lausanne, Switzerland.
