Clinical outcomes of once-daily darunavir in treatment-experienced patients with darunavir resistance-associated mutations through 48 weeks of treatment

Darunavir (DRV) is approved for once-daily use in patients with no DRV resistance-associated mutations (RAMs) and twice-daily use in those with DRV RAMs. Several studies suggest that once-daily DRV retains efficacy in the setting of 1–2 DRV RAMs whereas three or more DRV RAMs are needed for DRV resistance. There are few data to support the long-term use of once-daily DRV in patients with DRV RAMs. This observational study evaluated 48-week clinical outcomes of 22 treatment-experienced patients with ≥1 DRV RAMs switched to once-daily DRV between 2014 and 2017. The primary endpoint was HIV-1 RNA
