Abstract: OBJECTIVES: Abacavir (ABC) selects for four mutations (K65R, L74V, Y115F and M184V) in HIV-1 reverse transcriptase (RT), both in vitro and during monotherapy in vivo.
Abstract: RESULTS: K65R was selected infrequently by ABC-containing regimens in the absence of ZDV (13 of 127 patients), while L74V/I was selected more frequently (51 of 127 patients).
Abstract: Selection of both K65R and L74V/I was significantly reduced by co-administration of ZDV with ABC (one of 86 and two of 86 patients, respectively).

Abstract: Many mutations associated with reduced susceptibility to nucleoside or non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors were detected: M41L (11%), E44D (4%), D67N (11%), T69D (2%), K70R (11%), L74V (2%), L100I (4%), K103N (18%), V118I (9%), Y181C (11%), M184V (18%), G190A (4%), T215Y (4%), and K219E (4%).

Abstract: HIV-1 with the reverse transcriptase mutations K65R, L74V, and/or Q151M were less sensitive to DXG, whereas the mutation K103N re-sensitized the virus to the inhibitory effect of DXG.
HIV-1 reverse transcriptase and protease resistance mutations selected during 16-72 weeks of therapy in isolates from antiretroviral therapy-experienced patients receiving abacavir/efavirenz/amprenavir in the CNA2007 study.
Abstract: In this patient population, abacavir with efavirenz preferentially selected for L74V but not for thymidine analogue mutations.
Abstract: The NRTI mutations selected were in accordance with abacavir known resistance profile, no new TAMs were observed, new L74V or I mutations developed in 39 and 16% of isolates, respectively, however, new M184V mutations were only detected in isolates from two patients, one of whom had added lamivudine + didanosine.
K65R with and without S68: a new resistance profile in vivo detected in most patients failing abacavir, didanosine and stavudine.
Abstract: However, the effectiveness of combination therapy with regimens containing these compounds is often not abolished in the presence of these mutations; it has been conjectured that diminished fitness of HIV-1 variants containing L74V and M184V may contribute to sustained antiviral effects in such cases.
Abstract: The M184V and/or L74V mutation in the reverse transcriptase (RT) gene are frequently found in viral isolates from patients treated with the nucleoside RT inhibitors lamivudine (3TC), abacavir (ABC), and didanosine (ddI).
Abstract: To understand the biochemical mechanisms responsible for this diminished fitness, we generated a series of recombinant mutated enzymes containing either or both of the L
Nucleoside analogue mutations and Q151M in HIV-1 subtype A/E infection treated with nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors.
Abstract: RESULTS: Resistance mutations found in the d4T/ddI, ZDV/3TC, and ZDV/3TC/ddI groups: none at baseline; at week 48, nucleoside analogue mutations (NAM), 2/17 (12%), 2/10 (20%), and 1/8; Q151M complex, 3/17 (18%), 0%, and 0%; M184V, 0%, 10/10 (P < 0.001), 3/8; V75T, 3/17 (18%), 0%, and 0%; L74V, 3/7 (18%), 0%, and 0%, respectively.
Abstract: Suboptimal d4T/ddI therapy led to a high incidence of V75T and L74V mutations.

Abstract: There are several major genetic mutational patterns of resistance and cross-resistance that evolve with the NRTIs including the thymidine analog mutations M41L, D67N, K70R, L210W, T215Y, and K219Q/E/W, the non-thymidine mutations M184V, L74V, and K65R, and the multidrug resistant Q151M complex, as well as others.

Abstract: The L74V mutant remained susceptible to inhibition by DXG, and the K65R mutant demonstrated moderate resistance to DXG.
Abstract: We also examined site-directed mutants containing only L74V or K65R, the characteristic resistance mutations for DXG.
Efficacy and safety of stavudine plus didanosine in asymptomatic HIV-infected children with plasma HIV RNA below 50,000 copies per milliliter.
Abstract: Resistance mutations linked to didanosine (L74V or M184V) or stavudine (V75T) were not recognized and neither were multinucleoside resistant genotypes (151 complex or 69 inserts).
