Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND & AIMS: Development of resistance results from mutations in the viral genome, and the presence of selective drug pressure leads to the emergence of a resistant virus population. The aim of this study was to analyze the impact of genetic variability on the genetic barrier to drug resistance to DAAs. METHODS: The genetic barrier was quantified based on the number and type of nucleotide mutations required...
