Abstract: Among those successfully genotyped, the most frequent mutations were
M184I/V (64%), conferring resistance to lamivudine, and
K103N (27%),
Y181C (27%) and
G190A (27%), conferring resistance to
non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (
NNRTIs), whereas 23% had thymidine analogue mutations (TAMs), associated with cross-resistance to all
nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (
NRTIs).
Discussion: All 14 had a combination of
M184I/V, conferring resistance to lamivudine, with one or more of
K103N,
Y181C and
