BACKGROUND: Domestic data on antiretroviral drug (ARV) resistance are limited, while alterations in ARV resistance are expected as the incidence of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection increases. We evaluated the ten-year change in ARV resistance in people with HIV (PWH) in Korea. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Adults aged ≥19 years and diagnosed with HIV infection between January 2010 and December 2020 at a 750-bed municipal hospital were retrospectively reviewed. Data on clinical characteristics and resistance mutation test results were collected. The study population was divided into three-year intervals according to diagnosed year and their clinical characteristics were compared. RESULTS: A total of 248 PWH were analyzed, and ARV resistance was detected in 30 of them (12.1%). Resistance was detected most frequently in PWH aged ≤29 years (16, 6.5%), and the median percentage of resistance detection per year was 14.3% (interquartile range, 12.7 - 16.1). The trend of the overall prevalence of ARV resistance mutations slightly decreased and then increased over time (15.3% in 2012 - 2014, 9.6% in 2015 - 2017, and 12.9% in 2018 - 2020). The prevalence of the non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI) resistance markedly decreased over time (15.3% in 2012 - 2014, 8.7% in 2015 - 2017, and 2.4% in 2018-2020), while that of protease inhibitor (PI) and integrase strand transfer inhibitor (INSTI) increased from 0 until 2018 to 3.5% and 8.2% in 2018 - 2020, respectively. CONCLUSION: The trend of NNRTI resistance has decreased over time, and resistance to PIs and INSTIs increased from 2018. Therefore, continuous monitoring of ARV resistance pattern is necessary.
