Abstract excerpt
Blood samples from patients with plasma HIV-1 RNA <20 copies/ml for more than 2 years were studied. Significant decreases in total and integrated HIV-1 DNA were observed during the first 15 months of suppressive therapy before the concentrations became stable. Clonal analysis of HIV-1 pol demonstrated that the proportions of resistance mutations in DNA sequences after 2 years were lower than those in baseline DNA...
