Abstract
Available data on the use of maraviroc (MVC) in clinical settings are limited. In this cohort study, the clinical outcomes of HIV-1-infected patients treated with MVC were analysed and the predictive values of different tropism assays were compared. Baseline viral tropism was assessed and compared by phenotypic (Trofile and MT-2) and genotypic assays. Virological and immunological responses were evaluated. In total, 62 predominantly extensively pre-treated patients started MVC [median GSS 2.0 (IQR 2.0-2.5)]. Tropism assays were performed on baseline samples of 58 patients (93.5%). Thirty-two samples (80.0%) were classified as R5 by Trofile, 41 (80.4%) by genotypic tropism test (GTT) and 17 (81.0%) by MT-2. At least two types of tropism assay were performed on samples from 39 patients, whereas in 15 patients all three assays were performed (concordance 84.8-94.1%). Plasma HIV-RNA was
