Result: Finally, the complete replacement of wild-type virus with
NNRTI-resistant mutants was evident by 12 weeks postpartum coupled with a significant reduction of viral load in plasma and breast milk (Table 1);
K103N mutation was present in 5 out of 8 (63%)
pol sequences, whereas
NNRTI resistance mutations
V106M,
Y188C or
G190A were each present in 3 other sequences (Figure 3).
