- Abstract
Most treated HIV-1 patients have undetectable viral loads and the strategies for managing long-term side effects may involve a new class of antiretroviral-like CCR5 antagonists. Tropism determination based on proviral DNA sequence is necessary for patients with a fully suppressed plasma viral load, as assays analysing DNA phenotypes have yet to be developed. We aimed to analyse HIV-1 tropism using proviral DNA sequencing and the associated factors, in a group of patients on antiretroviral (ARV) treatment with an undetectable viral load in plasma.
