Abstract
Background
The 25-50% decline in HIV transmissions with antiretroviral therapyhas raised optimism that Treatment-as-Prevention (TasP) maycontrol the global pandemic by 2030. Paradoxically, transmissionsamong MSM have not declined, raising concerns that early-stageinfection, frequently undiagnosed, may offset the benefit of TasP.Phylogenetics ascribe the growth of the Montreal MSM epidemic tolarge cluster outbreaks, averaging 43 linked transmissions/cluster.This study characterized the distinct genotypic and phenotypicfeatures of large cluster viral variants favoring their selectionadvantage.
Materials & Methods
Phylogenetic analysis was performed on RT/protease sequencesfrom all newly infected MSM (n=4319, 2002-2014), assessingclustering dynamics (frequency, size, periodicity). Nucleotide mixedbase calls estimated recency of infection, using a 0.44% cut-off forprimary HIV infection (PHI). PHI cohort data evaluated the naturalhistory (viral load, risk behaviour) for subjects belonging to largeclusters vs. solitary transmission groups.
Viral stocks uses were amplified from representative large clusters(n=7, 20+ linked transmissions/cluster) and solitary transmissions(n=6) through co-culture of patient CD-8 depleted peripheral bloodmononuclear cells (CBMCs). Viruses from both groups werecompared for tropism, drug susceptibility and emergent resistanceto integrase inhibitors. Amplified viruses were serially passaged inCBMCs in the presence of increasing concentrations of (DTG),elvitegravir (EVG), and DTG +3TC dual pressure. Genotyping wasperformed at select passages to evaluate time to the developmentof drug resistance.
Results
Phylogenetic analysis revealed a significant rise in the relativecontribution of large clusters (10+ linked transmissions/cluster) intransmission dynamics, accounted for 35%, 40%, and 49% of newinfections over the 2002-2006, 2007-2010 and 2011-2014 periods.Overall, 40 viral lineages contributed to 1235 transmissions ascompared to 1375 solitary “dead-end” transmissions. PHI/EHI (0-0.44% genetic diversity) accounted for 57% and 26% oftransmissions in large cluster and solitary transmission groups,respectively. Viruses from seven representative large clusters oftenharbored X4/R5 dual tropic viruses (n=5/7) as compared todominant R5 tropism in the unique transmission group (0/6).Overall, 10% of transmitted viruses associated with large clustersharbored drug resistance mutations (G190A, K103N, T215revertants). Tissue culture studies showed accelerated developmentof resistance under DTG, (R263K, H51Y or S153Y), elvitegravir (EVG),3TC (M184I/V), and DTG/3TC dual pressure (R263K +M184V).Resistance mutations for DTG arose within 6-8 weeks in large clusterlineages while solitary transmission variants retained wild-typegenotype at 26 weeks.
Conclusion
Failure to control early stage transmissions is leading to worrisometrends towards the selection of super-viruses showing prolongedhigh viremia, dual tropism, rapid tropism shift, and/or facilitatedescape from drug pressure.

Impact of Clustering on Transmitted Resistance Large cluster variants show accelerated selection of resistance
Integrase inhibitors (INIs), including raltegravir (RAL), elvitegravir (EVG) anddolutegravir (DTG) are a drug class of choice in first-line therapy. Emergentresistance to EVG and RAL include the N155H and G140A/G148RHQpathways, conferring RGV/EVG cross-resistance, and Y143RHC (RGV) andT66I/E92Q/G (EVG) pathways. To date, DTG shows a higher barrier toresistance with no reported mutations in first-line therapy. “Super-transmissible” viral lineages showed facilitated development of resistance incell culture, revealing pathways to DTG resistance that could not beotherwise ascertained.
Clusters 118 (n=43), 45 (n=38) and 185 (n=44) share a common integrase
