Reanalysis of Coreceptor Tropism in HIV-1-Infected Adults Using a Phenotypic Assay with Enhanced Sensitivity
22 Mar 2011
Abstract excerpt
The enhanced-sensitivity Trofile assay (TF-ES; Monogram Biosciences) was used to retest coreceptor tropism samples from 4 different cohorts of HIV-1-infected patients. Nine percent to 26% of patients with CCR5-tropic virus by the original Trofile assay had CXCR4-using virus by TF-ES. Lower CD4 cell counts were associated with CXCR4-using virus in all cohorts.
