  Transmitted drug resistance (TDR) is an ongoing public health problem in HIV disease treatment and increases the risk of virologic failure following combination anti-retroviral therapy (cART) initiation. Current HIV treatment guidelines recommend resistance testing at entry into HIV care and at cART initiation. In this study, we longitudinally observed 10 acute/recently infected patients for 24-51 months. In addition to calculating the replacement rate of TDR measured by bulk population sequencing, High-throughput sequencing (HTS) was used to detect the minority mutations and quantify the variation of each TDR mutations during the follow-up. We compared the predictions of virus sensitivity to each drug by bulk population sequencing alone or by the combined sequencing with bulk population sequencing and HTS, which was analyzed with their virologic response after 6 months antiretroviral..
