Abstract: INTERVENTIONS AND MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S): Before our lab was consulted, the patient was unsuccessfully treated with interferon, an obscure drug named Hepon, which should activate antiviral immune response, and Lamivudine, the latter most likely becoming ineffective due to the mergence of resistant subpopulations (
rtL180 M,
rtV207 M, two strains with stop codons at position
rt188 and
rt198,
rtM204V (
YVDD),
rtM204K (YKDD)).
