Genotyping kit of HIV-1 integrase for resistance monitoring of integrase inhibitors

Project 543

Problem to be solved
Limitation of genotyping the integrase region of HIV-1 to identify resistance mutations in HIV-positive individuals treated with the new class of antiretroviral.

Proposed innovation
Genotyping kit for HIV-1 integrase region and standardization of the method.

Differential

  • – Sensitivity and specificity.
  • Low cost
  • Expertise of laboratories involved in the development of the reagent.
  • Possibility of expanding the coverage of patient monitoring by incorporating the kit in the public health system.

    • Stage of development
    Validation of the laboratory prototype
