Abstract Eight-day inpatient directly observed therapy confirmed nonadherence as the major cause of virologic failure for 9 (45%) of 20 highly treatment-experienced persons with human immunodeficiency virus, extensive antiretroviral drug resistance, and high self-reported adherence rates, preventing unnecessary regimen changes.

The treatment goal of antiretroviral therapy is to achieve and maintain an undetectable viral load. Patients on antiretroviral therapy who do not achieve this goal can develop drug resistance to one or more drugs in the regimen. Poor medication adherence is the most likely reason for virologic failure and the development of drug resistance. Development of new drugs and clinical availability of HIV resistance tests has given providers more options for treatment-experienced patients with extensive drug resistance. Evaluating patients with extensive drug resistance requires knowledge of previous antiretroviral drug regimens, previous drug resistance tests, and interpretation of those tests. Managing treatment-experienced patients can be complex and may require consultation with an HIV expert.
