DRUG RESISTANCE TESTING NEW DRUG DEVELOPMENT (ANTI RETROVIRAL HIV) Cross-Resistance

Cross-Resistance
HIV variants resistant to one drug in a class of antiretroviral drugs may be resistant to another drug in the same class. Recombinant viruses containing resistance-associated mutations to an investigational drug should be tested for susceptibility to all approved and any investigational drugs (where possible) of the same class and other classes with the same target protein or protein complex. Conversely, laboratory strains and well-characterized clinical isolates containing resistance-associated mutations for each of the approved and investigational members (where possible) of the same class should be tested for susceptibility to the investigational drug.
Clinical isolates should be representative of the breadth of diverse mutations and combinations of mutations known to confer reduced susceptibility. A standardized panel of virus strains and isolates with diverse resistance-associated mutations and combinations of resistance-associated mutations for the different drug classes can be helpful for profiling investigational drugs and allowing for comparison with approved and other investigational drugs. The panel should be up to date and include mutational changes in current circulating viral populations caused by the introduction of newly approved drugs.
