  1. NOTE. NRTI, nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor; NNRTI, non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor; PI, protease inhibitor; MSM: men who have sex with men; IQR, interquartile ranges; aTDRM’s from multiple classes was found in 49 (22.5%), 39 (31.2%), and 28 (26.2%) patients in the NRTI, NNRTI, and PI drug class, respectively, and are therefore counted in more than one drug resistance column. Multi-class resistance was found for the combination NRTI-NNRTI in 38 patients, for NRTI-PI in 27 patients and NNRTI-PI in 17 patients. Resistance for all three drug classes was found in 16 patients.
