Characteristics of Treatment-experienced HIV-infected African Children and Adolescents Initiating Darunavir and/or Etravirine-based Antiretroviral Treatment
Conclusions:
In our study, a significant proportion of treatment-experienced African children and adolescents had one or more DRV-RM and ETR-RM. For the new regimen, more than a third of pediatric patients failing second-line ART were prescribed NRTI-sparing regimens. Better understanding of the current approaches to pediatric ART sequencing in resource-limited settings is needed.
