Page 2 Analysis of HIV Specialty Representative's Use of HIV-1 Drug Resistance Tests (RT) as a Sales Aid

Discussion:
SRWA asked "Where is HIV-1 drug resistance testing (RT) used predominantly" to determine if the representative knew where one of the newest HIV management tools was employed (Group_1 Slide).  Since RT is recommended by a number of panels for first failure patients, it was expected that a significant number of representatives would respond in a similar manner.  However, only 17% of responders said "First  Failure."  Instead, 69% of responders said RT was being used to manage "Salvage Therapy" patients only.

Only 17% of Responders Said, "First Failure"

See Glossary for Definitions of Terms:
Not Seen RT Used
Treatment Naïve
First Drug Failure
Salvage Therapy
Deep Salvage
