Current situation of ART and TDR in Japan 1. A key drug of the first line ART is changing over time. 2. PIs were the most frequently used in this decade. 3. However recently, INSTI has been mainly selected. 4. Current ART have been very effective in terms of viral suppression. Almost all patients on ART achieved VL suppression below 20 copies/ml. 5. Annual prevalence of TDR has been slightly increasing but still below 10% in the past two years.

Hanoi cohort in National Hospital of Tropical Diseases - HIV-infected patients on ART were enrolled - Background: 1. Number of patients on ART is expanding rapidly 2. ART is implemented based on WHO guidelines 3. CRF01-AE is predominant What to follow; 1. Monitoring of ART 2. Side effects due to ART in Vietnamese

2016, 11(3): e0150781
Consecutive 300 newly diagnosed cases were enrolled each year
Current situation of ART and TDR in Vietnam 1. ART is expanding rapidly in this decade. Annual new cases have been decreasing since 2007. 2. Patient cohorts revealed very high retention rate and low true LTFU (3.1%) 3. First line ART was very effective. However, there were still ADIs including TB. 4. Prevalence of TDR during 2008-2012 was still low (4.2%).

Basic understandings of acquired DRMs 1. Adherence is the most important factor for ARD. Pill burden, side effects, etc. 2. VL at week 12 after initiation of ART is critical for treatment success 3. ADRMs appear in plasma first and then in PBMC under drug selection pressure 4. ADRMs disappear in plasma first and then in PBMC under no drug selection pressure

How to stop ART Of course, ART should not be interrupted. However, at the extremely situations such as natural disaster or budget depletion, and if drug supply was stopped ----, When discontinue ART, in general, stop all drugs simultaneously in order to avoid inducing drugresistance.

How to stop EFV without inducing DRM 1. EFV is the most widely used ARV in the world. 2. Basically, EFV should not be interrupted. 3. If we have to stop EFV, - Substitute EFV with PI prior to interruption - Stop EFV first around 1 week before the other drugs - pay special attention to slow EFV metabolizers
