Popis: In a South African cohort of participants living with HIV developing virological failure on first-line tenofovir disoproxyl fumarate (TDF)-based regimens, at least 70% of participants demonstrated TDF resistance according to combined Sanger and MiSeq genotyping. Sanger sequencing missed the K65R mutation in 30% of samples. Unless HIV genotyping is available to closely monitor epidemiological HIV resistance to TDF, its efficacy as second-line therapy will be greatly compromised.
