BACKGROUND: To evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of rilpivirine (RPV), a non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI), in combination with nucleoside/nucleotide reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs) in human immunodeficiency vir...
BACKGROUND: Primary analysis at 24 weeks showed that switching to rilpivirine plus darunavir/cobicistat was non-inferior to continuing a standard three-drug antiretroviral regimen in virologically suppressed people with HIV. We present efficacy and s...
Switching from a three-drug regimen (3DR: boosted darunavir [bDRV] and two nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors [NRTIs]) to a two-drug regimen (2DR: bDRV and dolutegravir [DTG]) demonstrated non-inferiority with regard to viral suppression in...
BACKGROUND: Transmitted drug resistance (TDR) occurs in patients with HIV infection who are not exposed to antiretroviral drugs but who are infected with a virus with mutations associated with resistance.

A key enzyme in human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) life cycle, integrase (IN) aids the integration of viral DNA into the host DNA, which has become an ideal target for the development of anti-HIV drugs. A total of 1785 potential HIV-1 IN inh...

A generative adversarial autoencoder for the rational design of potential HIV-1 entry inhibitors able to block CD4-binding site of the viral envelope protein gp120 was developed. To do this, the following studies were carried out: (i) an autoencoder ...
Drug resistance mutations (DRMs) appear in HIV under treatment pressure. DRMs are commonly transmitted to naive patients. The standard approach to reveal new DRMs is to test for significant frequency differences of mutations between treated and naive...

Genetic compartmentalization in semen has been observed in previous studies. However, genetic signatures associated with compartmentalization in semen are only beginning to be explored. A total of 2071 partial HIV env sequences for paired blood and s...
MOTIVATION: Knowing the sensitivity of a viral strain versus a monoclonal antibody is of interest for HIV vaccine development and therapy. The HIV strains vary in their resistance to antibodies, and the accurate prediction of virus-antibody sensitivi...
Pathogen genomic sequence data are increasingly made available for epidemiological monitoring. A main interest is to identify and assess the potential of infectious disease outbreaks. While popular methods to analyze sequence data often involve phylo...
