Monitoring HIV drug resistance and treatment strategies in Eastern Europe and Russia
Official title: HIV Resistance, Molecular Epidemiology and New Treatment Strategies in the Eastern European Region and in Russia
Run by Euresist Network GEIE · NCT06127290 · Data updated 2026-11-12
This study is trying to see how new HIV drugs work in people in Eastern Europe and Russia by looking at how drug resistance changes over time and how it affects treatment.

Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates include naïve patients starting 2nd generation INSTI treatment or first-line patients under 2nd generation INSTI treatment with relevant viral RNA sequences.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients under 18 years old or those unable to provide informed consent will not benefit from this study.

What this trial studies
This observational study involves a cohort-based prospective monitoring of HIV drug resistance as new anti-HIV drugs are introduced in Russia and Ukraine. It collects viral sequences and clinical data to investigate the spread of drug resistance mutations (DRM) and their impact on treatment efficacy. The study aims to explore the temporal dynamics of HIV-1 subtypes and to support the implementation of a pre-treatment drug resistance surveillance plan in accordance with WHO guidelines. Long-term follow-up will help identify changing patterns of pre-treatment drug resistance (PDR).
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this study could enhance the understanding of HIV drug resistance and improve treatment strategies for patients in Eastern Europe and Russia.
How similar studies have gone: Other studies have shown success in monitoring HIV drug resistance, making this approach both relevant and necessary.
