Methods All adult ART-naive patients who initiated standard first-line treatment between April 2004-February 2012 at four public-sector health facilities in Johannesburg, South Africa, experienced virologic failure, and initiated standard second-line therapy were included. We assessed predictors of attrition (death and loss to follow-up [≥3 months late for a scheduled visit]) using Cox proportional hazards regression and predictors of virologic suppression (viral load
