Genotyping and NNRTI mutations: where do we go from here as HIV populations get older? A perspective
Keywords:

As genotyping procedures have increasingly become more sensitive and complex, HIV scientists and physicians are finding new clinical approaches to treat compromised patient populations on non-nucleoside transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI) classes of drugs. Further, as age demographics play a vital role in older populations affected with HIV, understanding phenotype/resistance panels for regimen changes is paramount.
