RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Doravirine is the latest NNRTI to be approved for the treatment of HIV-1 and has a different resistance profile from first-generation NNRTIs. Our aim was to investigate the virological efficacy of antiretroviral treatment including doravirine in people living with HIV-1 (PLWHIV), the factors associated with virological failure (VF) and those associated with the emergence of reverse transcriptase (RT) mutations in the case of VF. METHODS: A retrospective national survey of PLWHIV who were either naive or experienced on antiretroviral treatment including doravirine was conducted. VF was defined as two consecutive plasma viral loads (VLs) of ≥50â copies/mL or one VL of ≥200â copies/mL. Genotypic resistance tests were interpreted using the Stanford (v9.4.1) and ANRS (v33) algorithms. RESULTS: Of the 589 PLWHIV treated with a doravirine-containing regimen, 8.5% were naive and 91.5% had prior antiretroviral experience; 56.9% were infected with HIV-1 B subtype. Overall, 88.3% and 85.1% of participants were virologically controlled at Month (M)3 and M6 of doravirine treatment, respectively. In multivariable analysis, CRF02_AG subtype, higher zenith plasma HIV-1 RNA VL, doravirine initiation in the context of failure and baseline V179D mutation presence were associated with VF. Among 88 PLWHIV who experienced virological failure at M6, 15.9% had a median of 2 (IQR 1-3) HIV RT mutations. In multivariable analysis, the only factor associated with the occurrence of mutations was a genotypic sensitivity score that was not fully sensitive. CONCLUSIONS: This study is one of the largest to characterize the virological efficacy of doravirine-containing regimens in clinical practice and to identify factors associated with VF or emergence of resistance mutations that should be considered in clinical management.

OBJECTIVES: As many disparities in the clinical use of HIV DNA sequencing are observed, a DELPHI-type consensus was initiated in France to homogenize use, techniques and interpretation of results. METHODS: Based on a literature review and clinical experience, a steering committee (SC) of eight virologists and one infectious disease specialist formulated statements. Statements were submitted to an independent and anonymous electronic vote of virologists and HIV clinicians in France, between October 2022 and December 2022. RESULTS: The SC developed 20 statements grouped into six categories: clinical situations for the use of HIV DNA genotyping; techniques for performing HIV DNA genotyping; consideration of apolipoprotein B mRNA editing enzyme (APOBEC) mutations; genotyping results reporting; recycling of antiretrovirals; and availability of HIV DNA genotyping tests and delays. Twenty-one virologists and 47 clinicians participated in two voting rounds and 18/20 (90%) assertions reached a 'strong' consensus. For example, that prior genotyping on HIV DNA is useful for clinical decision-making when considering switching to some long-acting regimens or to reduce the number of antiretroviral agents in virologically suppressed patients for whom RNA data are unavailable/not exploitable/not sufficiently informative. Two statements achieved no consensus: reporting any detected viral minority population for discussion in multidisciplinary meetings (virologists), and possible risk of virological failure when using a second-generation InSTI plus lamivudine or emtricitabine regimen in patients with undetectable viral load within ≥1â year and in the presence of a documented M184V mutation within the last 5â years (clinicians). CONCLUSIONS: This DELPHI-type consensus will facilitate the strengthening and harmonization of good practice when performing HIV DNA sequencing.

The diversity of the V3 loop tip motif sequences of HIV-1 subtype B was analyzed in patients from Botucatu (Brazil) and Montpellier (France). Overall, 37 tetrameric tip motifs were identified, 28 and 17 of them being recognized in Brazilian and French patients, respectively. The GPGR (P) motif was predominant in French but not in Brazilian patients (53.5 percent vs 31.0 percent), whereas the GWGR (W) motif was frequent in Brazilian patients (23.0 percent) and absent in French patients. Three tip motif groups were considered: P, W, and non-P non-W groups. The distribution of HIV-1 isolates into the three groups was significantly different between isolates from Botucatu and from Montpellier (P < 0.001). A higher proportion of CXCR4-using HIV-1 (X4 variants) was observed in the non-P non-W group as compared with the P group (37.5 percent vs 19.1 percent), and no X4 variant was identified in the W group (P < 0.001). The higher proportion of X4 variants in the non-P non-W group was essentially observed among the patients from Montpellier, who have been infected with HIV-1 for a longer period of time than those from Botucatu. Among patients from Montpellier, CD4+ cell counts were lower in patients belonging to the non-P non-W group than in those belonging to the P group (24 cells/µL vs 197 cells/µL; P = 0.005). Taken together, the results suggest that variability of the V3 loop tip motif may be related to HIV-1 coreceptor usage and to disease progression. However, as analyzed by a bioinformatic method, the substitution of the V3 loop tip motif of the subtype B consensus sequence with the different tip motifs identified in the present study was not sufficient to induce a change in HIV-1 coreceptor usage.
