N2 - The relationship between phenotypic susceptibility to lopinavir (LPV) and genotypic pattern was investigated in LPV-naive, protease inhibitor (PI)-experienced subjects. Protease sequences of 100 HIV isolates with ascertained susceptibility (determined by Antivirogram) to LPV were analyzed (VircoGen). Two different thresholds (2.5- and 10-fold) were used for defining reduced susceptibility. Mutations were classified as LPV/r (the actual formulation of LPV that combines LPV with low-dose ritonavir) mutations according to the International AIDS Society-USA. Thirty-four isolates showed reduced LPV susceptibility (2.6- to 75.9-fold). Fold resistance to LPV correlated with the number of total and LPV/r mutations (Spearman coefficient = 0.62 and 0.74, respectively; P <0.001). Current PI therapy (P = 0.002) and indinavir administration (P <0.001), >5 LPV/r mutations (P <0.0012), and detection of L10FIRV, K20MR, M46IL, I54VL, A71VT, G73SA, V82AFTS, I84V, and M90L were associated with LPV resistance in univariate analysis. Factors independently associated with LPV resistance were K20MR (odds ratio [OR], 13.9; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.3-145.1; P = 0.028), I54VL (OR, 131.7; 95% CI, 10.5-1654.7; P <0.001), G73SA (OR, 19.2; 95% CI, 1.4-273.7; P = 0.029), and I84V (OR, 177.5; 95% CI, 6.0-5232.5; P = 0.003) mutations and >9 protease mutations (OR, 18.6; 95% CI, 1.6-213.0; P = 0.019). Sixteen of 34 and 18 of 34 isolates with reduced LPV susceptibility showed >10-fold or 2 = 0.70). In conclusion, for PI-experienced patients requiring salvage therapy, switching to LPV should be based on the number of baseline mutations and the presence of mutation 54.
