Individualisation of HIV therapy: the clinician's perspective.
Assessment of clinical and laboratory markers of HIV infection may be used to individualise antiretroviral therapy. Data suggest that measures of viral load may be of considerable value as both a baseline and dynamic therapy marker, making these tools particularly useful in driving therapeutic decisions. Similarly, in-vitro data regarding intracellular pharmacokinetics and activity, resistance patterns and potential synergy of antiretroviral agents may be used to guide selection of optimal treatment regimens in clinical practice.
