Background   Drug-class-wide resistance (DCWR) to anti-retrovirals substantially reduces treatment options.Methods   A database of 602 patients failing highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) undergoing genotypic resistance test (GRT) was analysed. DCWR was defined according to the International AIDS Society consensus. A multiple logistic regression model was built to define factors significantly associated with DCWR and to assess virological response to salvage regimens.Results   NRTI DCWR was observed in 28.5% of 592 NRTI-exposed patients, NNRTI DCWR in 57.7% of 284 NNRTI exposed patients, PI DCWR in 19.9% of 412 PI exposed patients, and three-class resistance in 21.4% of 112 three-class-exposed patients. The prevalence of NRTI and PI DCWR increased significantly by year of exposure to the same class from 8.9% ( 4 years) and from 1.2% ( 4 years), respectively ( P 4 years; P&lt;0.001, for trend). After adjustment for confounding factors, the probability of achieving plasma viral load &lt;500 copies/ml was significantly reduced in patients with NRTI (OR: 0.750; 95% CI: 0.574–0.979), NNRTI (OR: 0.746; 95% CI: 0.572–0.975), PI (OR: 0.655; 95% CI: 0.456–0.941), three-class (OR: 0.220; 95% CI: 0.082–0.593) resistance.Conclusions   The probability of developing NRTI and PI DCWR increased with length of class exposure and with the number of previously failing regimens. By contrast, high levels of NNRTI DCWR were observed within 1 year in NNRTI-failing patients, with a steady prevalence over time. The increase in prevalence with time of NRTI DCWR was due to the accumulation of NAMs. DCWR to NRTIs, NNRTIs, PIs or all the three together was associated with an increased probability of virological failure to subsequent HAART regimens.
