Resistance to dolutegravir was seen in 8% of people with repeatedly detectable viral loads who had resistance test results in an ongoing study in Lesotho. Compared to previous rates of dolutegravir resistance in the same cohort from three years ago, there was no increase. Most people with dolutegravir resistance also had resistance to other HIV drugs that it is often combined with.
The findings from Dr Anna Klicpera and colleagues were presented by Professor Niklaus Labhardt of University Hospital Basel at HIV Glasgow 2026.
