Abstract BACKGROUND: Resistance-associated substitutions (RASs) to HCV direct-acting antivirals (DAAs) can contribute to virologic failure and limit retreatment options. People who inject drugs (PWID) are at highest risk for transmission of resistant virus. We report on RASs at baseline and after virologic failure in DAA-naive and protease inhibitor-experienced PWID. METHODS: We sequenced the NS3/4A, NS5A, and NS5B regions from 150 PWID with genotype 1 (GT1) viruses; 128 (85.3%) GT1a, 22 (14.7%) GT1b. RESULTS: Among the 139 (92.7%) DAA-naive PWID, 85 of 139 (61.2%) had baseline RASs-67 of 139 (48.2%) in NS3 (predominantly Q80K/L); 25 of 139 (18.0%) in NS5A; and 8 of 139 (5.8%) in NS5B. Of the 11 protease inhibitor-experienced participants, 9 had baseline NS3 RASs (V36L N = 1, Q80K N = 9) and 4 had baseline NS5A RASs (M28V N = 2, H58P N = 1, A92T N = 1). Among the 11 participants who had posttreatment samples with detectable virus (7 treatment failures, 1 late relapse, 3 reinfections), 1 sofosbuvir/ledipasvir failure had a baseline H58P. Two sofosbuvir/ledipasvir-treated participants developed new NS5A mutations (Q30H, Y93H, L31M/V). Otherwise, no RASs were detected. CONCLUSIONS: Our results demonstrate RAS prevalence among DAA-naive PWID is comparable to that in the general population. Only 2 of 150 (1.3%) in our longitudinal cohort developed treatment-emergent RASs. Concern for transmission of resistant virus may therefore be minimal.

Mutation Information
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
  • Clinical Information: The study is a clinical or epidemiological study and provides basic information about the population.
  • Treatment: The study mentioned a certain treatment method, such as drug resistance caused by mutations. If the study does not specifically indicate the relationship between mutations and their correspondence treatment, the main treatment studied in the article is marked.
  • Location: The source of the research data.
