Abstract
Phenotypic assays measure the susceptibility of HIV-1 to antiretroviral drugs, and are used to guide treatment regimen choices. Analyses of baseline predictors of virological failure support the use of a 0.4-fold cutpoint for defining increased susceptibility (hypersusceptibility) to efavirenz in the PhenoSense HIV assay. The enhancement of the virological activity of efavirenz, associated with resistance to reverse transcriptase inhibitors, provides an opportunity to consider mutational and drug interactions in optimizing treatment.
