Abstract Objective To investigate the status of drug resistance before anti-retroviral therapy among newly dignosed HIV/AIDS patients aged ≥50 years in Yangzhou City, Jiangsu Province, so as to provide the evidence for improving the anti-retroviral therapy effect of AIDS. Methods HIV/AIDS patients aged ≥50 years who were newly dignosed in Yangzhou City from 2021 to 2024 and did not receive anti-retroviral therapy were selected. Basic information were collected through the Chinese Disease Prevention and Control Information System. Blood samples were collected to determine CD4+T lymphocyte (CD4 cell) counts and HIV-1 viral load. Following nucleic acid extraction, the pol gene region was amplified using reverse transcription and nested PCR, and subsequently subjected to Sanger sequencing. The resulting sequences were uploaded to the Stanford University HIV Drug Resistance Database to analyze drug resistance to non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTIs), protease inhibitors (PIs), and nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs). Results Totally 404 blood samples from HIV/AIDS patients were collected, with successful sequencing of the pol gene region in 341 cases. Among them, 253 (74.19%) were males and 88 (25.81%) were females, with a mean age of (62.48±7.60) years. A total of 152 cases (44.57%) had CD4 cell counts below 200 cells/μL, and 296 cases (86.80%) had HIV-1 viral loads exceeding 5 000 copies/mL. A total of 87 cases exhibited drug resistance-associated mutations, corresponding to a mutation rate of 25.51%. The predominant mutation site was V179, with a mutation rate of 17.01%. A total of 29 cases exhibited resistance to at least one drug, resulting in a resistance rate of 8.50%. The resistance rates to NNRTIs, PIs, and NRTIs were 5.57%, 2.93%, and 1.17%, respectively. The HIV/AIDS patients exhibited varying degrees of resistance to 13 anti-retroviral drugs, with low- or intermediate-level drug resistance being predominant. High-level drug resistance cases were observed against NNRTIs such as nevirapine and efavirenz. Conclusions The drug resistance rate before anti-retroviral therapy among newly dignosed HIV/AIDS patients aged ≥50 years in Yangzhou City was at a moderate level. The predominant resistance mutation was observed at V179 site, with NNRTIs resistance being most prevalent, primarily demonstrating low- or intermediate-level drug resistance.
