Abstract Second-generation integrase strand transfer inhibitors (INSTIs) are strongly recommended for people living with HIV-1 (PLWH). The emergence of resistance to second-generation INSTIs has been infrequent and has not yet been a major issue in high-income countries. However, the delayed rollouts of these INSTIs in low- to middle-income countries during the COVID-19 pandemic combined with increased transmission of drug-resistant mutants worldwide are leading to an increase in INSTI resistance. Herein, we evaluated the antiviral potencies of our lead developmental INSTI 4d and the second-generation INSTIs dolutegravir (DTG), bictegravir (BIC), and cabotegravir (CAB) against a panel of IN quadruple mutants. The mutations are centered around G140S/Q148H, including positions L74, E92, and T97 combined with E138A/K/G140S/Q148H. All of the tested INSTIs lose potency against these IN quadruple mutants compared with the wild-type IN. In single-round infection assays, compound 4d retained higher antiviral potencies (EC(50) values) than second-generation INSTIs against a subset of quadruple mutants. These findings may advance understanding of mechanisms that contribute to resistance and, in so doing, facilitate development of new INSTIs with improved antiviral profiles.

Note
Basic Characteristics of Mutations
  • Mutation Site: The specific location in a gene or protein sequence where a change occurs.
  • Mutation Level: The level at which a mutation occurs, including the nucleotide or amino acid level.
  • Mutation Type: The nature of the mutation, such as missense mutation, nonsense mutation, synonymous mutation, etc.
  • Gene/Protein/Region: Refers to the specific region of the virus where the mutation occurs. Including viral genes, viral proteins, or a specific viral genome region. If the article does not specifically indicate the relationship between the mutation and its correspondence, the main
  • Gene/Protein/Region studied in the article is marked.
  • Genotype/Subtype: Refers to the viral genotype or subtype where the mutation occurs. If the article does not specifically indicate the relationship between the mutation and its correspondence, the main Genotype/Subtype studied in the article is marked.
  • Viral Reference: Refers to the standard virus strain used to compare and analyze viral sequences.
Functional Impact and Mechanisms
  • Disease: An abnormal physiological state with specific symptoms and signs caused by viral infection.
  • Immune: The article focuses on the study of mutations and immune.
  • Target Gene: Host genes that viral mutations may affect.
Clinical and Epidemiological Correlations
