Aims of the study

 Genotypic tropism testing from viral RNA is widely

accepted as routine diagnostic method. It‘s usage is implemented by local and European guidelines.

 Although there is a huge interest in performing tropism

testing in patients with low or undetectable viral load, data about tropism testing from proviral DNA ist still limited

 To better assess the usage of tropism testing from

proviral DNA, we conducted a multicenter study to compare V3 loop sequence pairs from viral RNA and proviral DNA in routine diagnostic samples

Specification of the samples

 Sequencing from viral RNA and

proviral DNA was performed in 210 samples

 Viral load range was between <50

copies/ml and 8.1 million cop./ml

 HIV1-Subtype was in most cases B

(71%)

Coreceptor-tropism classification

 2 Classification systems were used  Geno2pheno[coreceptor] (http://www.geno2pheno.org)

  • Cut-offs for coreceptor tropism classification were used as

implemented in the german guidelines

  • FPR <12.5% -> CXCR4
  • FPR >20% -> CCR5
  • FPR 12.5% – 20% -> equivocal

 WebPSSM

(http://indra.mullins.microbiol.washington.edu/)

  • Cut-offs as described in: Jensen, M.A. u. a. Improved

coreceptor usage prediction and genotypic monitoring of R5-to-X4 transition by motif analysis of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 env V3 loop sequences. J. Virol 77, 13376-13388 (2003).

  • FPR > -2.88 -> CXCR4
  • FPR < -6.96 -> CCR5
  • FPR -2.88 - -6.96 -> equivocal
  • Ambiguous positions in Sequences were resolved with

using the highest potential score of any possible sequences

Conclusions:

 Genotypic tropism testing from viral RNA

and proviral DNA shows a high level of concordance

 In routine diagnostics tropism testing can be

performed from proviral DNA alone and can replace tropism testing from viral RNA to simplify routine diagnostic procedures

 Genotypic tropism testing from proviral DNA

shows at least a trend towards an higher CXCR4 classification

 If performing genotypic tropism testing from

proviral DNA cut-offs should be lowered compared to cut-offs in viral RNA

HIV-1 subtypes?

 Identification of polymorphisms

responsible for subtype dependent coreceptor tropism differences

Methods

 V3-RT-PCR from plasma  or proviral V3-DNA-PCR from EDTA-blood

samples

 Sequencing of PCR amplicons  HIV-1 subtyping by COMET tool  Coreceptor tropism prediction by geno2pheno

(FPR>10% => R5)

 CHi2 test of absolute values and expected

values

 expected values were calculated by the

normalized mean of each subtype-specific R5-X4 ratio

Summary

 Difference of percentages for

subtypes detected

 Normalized overall mean: 70.5% R5

  • vs. 29.5% X4

 Higher rate of X4 tropism prediction

for subtypes CRF01_AE and D

 Higher rate of R5 tropism prediction

for subytpes A1 and G

 No differences for all other subtypes

(B, C, F)

Discussion

 Higher rate of X4 prediction for subtype

D as described before confirmed

 For subtype C R5 prediction rate similar

to subtype B

 Contradictory publications available  Limitations:  no further laboratory parameters and no

clinical data available

 Short sequence length may influence

subtyping performance (use of additional subtyping tools)
