Integrase drug resistance monitoring deserves attention because of the increasing number of patients being treated with integrase strand-transfer inhibitors. Therefore, we evaluated the integrase genotyping success rate at low-level viraemia (LLV, 51-1000 copies/mL) and resistance in raltegravir-failing patients.
