The present invention provides methods and devices for predicting whether an HIV-I is likely to have a reduced susceptibility to an antiviral drug based on the HIV- I 's genotype. In one aspect, the invention provides methods comprising determining whether a mutation or combination of mutations associated with altered susceptibility to protease inhibitors are present, as disclosed herein, thereby assessing the effectiveness of tipranavir therapy in the HIV-infected subject. Computer implemented methods comprising determining HIV-I 's altered susceptibility are provided.

L'invention porte sur des procédés et des dispositifs permettant de savoir si un VIH-l est susceptible de présenter une sensibilité à un médicament antiviral en se basant sur le génotype du VIH-l. Selon un aspect les méthodes consistent à déterminer, comme on l~a découvert, la présence d~une mutation ou une combinaison de mutations associée à une sensibilité accrue aux inhibiteurs de la protéase, ce qui permet d~évaluer l~efficacité de la thérapie par le tipranavir chez le patient infecté par le VIH. L'invention porte également sur des méthodes assistées par ordinateur consistant à déterminer les modifications de la sensibilité au VIH-l.
