Virological factors associated with outcome of dual maraviroc/raltegravir therapy (ANRS-157 trial)

Abstract: Maraviroc plus raltegravir failed to maintain virological suppression in virologically suppressed HIV-1-infected patients. However, neither minority viral variants nor ultrasensitive viraemia was found to be a predictive factor of VF or virological rebound in this context.

“…However, in the ROCnRAL study, presence of minority X4-tropic viral variants was not associated with virological failure. 20 (ii) Since the patients were already under antiretroviral treatment in the ROCnRAL study, the tropism was determined on cellular proviral DNA, whilst it was determined on plasma RNA in our study. It has been suggested that proviral DNA was not as representative of the different viral populations as RNA, which could explain the emergence of non-R5 viruses at failure in the ROCnRAL study.…”

“…Indeed, switching to maraviroc and raltegravir dual therapy was too “weak” to maintain virological success [7], with a high risk of emerging resistance. Besides, no predictors of virological failure were identified [9]. Conversely, darunavir/ritonavir or lopinavir/ritonavir monotherapy exhibited efficacy rate concordant with triple drug regimen [10,11], with no selection of major resistant variants at failure [12].…”
