and CRF02_AG
•Rilpivirine (RPV) is a second generation non nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI) recently approved for HIV-1 treatment.
•The activity of this antiretroviral is against a broad spectrum of wild type and first-generation NNRTI-resistant HIV-1 viruses.
•Several NNRTI mutations have been already associated with E138K+M184I was commonly detected in patients with virologic failure Multiple-hypothesis testing = Benjamini-Hochberg method.
Objective
After correction for multiple-hypothesis testing, only the primary
RRM E138G was present with a significant prevalence within
