Introduction
HIV-1 transmitted drug resistance (TDR) could
reverse the gains of antiretroviral rollout.
To ensure that current 1st line therapies remain
effective, TDR levels in recently infected
treatment-naive patients need to be monitored.

Methods
A literature review and data mining exercise was carried
out to determine the temporal trends in TDR in South
Africa. In total 1,650 sequences were analyzed.
Publicly available data on TDR were retrieved from
Genbank, curated in RegaDB and analyzed using the
Calibrated Population Resistance Program.
Including, 72 sequences from seroconvertors identified
from Africa Centre's 2010 HIV surveillance round were
also examined for TDR.

Conclusion
The prevalence of TDR in rural KZN is still very low, similar to reports from
other provinces of South Africa.
Although widespread resistance testing in South Africa is not recommended
at the present time, pretreatment genotypic testing has been shown to
significantly improve the outcome of first-line drug regimens in resource-rich
countries.
In Southern Africa as ART access and treatment programs grow, it is critical to
maintain surveillance among recent seroconverters and treatment-naive and
treated populations.
Programs covering well-defined geographic areas and populations minimize
the biases inherent in TDR surveillance and provide guidance in implementing
risk reduction and secondary prevention to maintain the effectiveness of firstline treatment.
