To study the emergence and evolution of drug resistance during treatment of HIV infection, we study a mathematical model with two strains, one drug-sensitive and the other drug-resistant, by incorporating cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) immune response. The reproductive numbers for each strain with and without the CTL immune response are obtained and shown to determine the stability of the steady states. By sensitivity analysis, we evaluate how the changes of parameters influence the reproductive numbers. The model shows that CTL immune response can suppress the development of drug resistance. There is a dynamic relationship between antiretroviral drug administration, the prevalence of drug resistance, the total level of viral production, and the strength of immune responses. We further investigate the scenario under which the drug-resistant strain can outcompete the wild-type strain. If drug efficacy is at an intermediate level, the drug-resistant virus is likely to arise. The slower the immune response wanes, the slower the drug-resistant strain grows. The results suggest that immunotherapy that aims to enhance immune responses, combined with antiretroviral drug treatment, may result in a functional control of HIV infection.

Keywords: Drug resistance, antiretroviral therapy, CTL immune response, sensitivity analysis, Stability.

Figure 2. The dynamics of infection before converging to steady states. $ (a)-(d) $ represent uninfected cells, wild-type virus, resistant virus, and CTL cells, respectively. The blue solid line is the case in which CTL cells are present. The parameters are from Table 1 and $ b = 0.1 $. We have $ R_{s} = 3.13>R_{r} = 1.74>1 $, $ R_{cs} = 68.1>1 $. Solution trajectories of the system converge to the positive equilibrium $ E^{\star} = (415257, 14994.3, 586870, 1.01219, 26.4110, 44.9845) $. The red dotted line refers to the case in which CTL cells are absent. The parameter $ c $ is 0. This yields $ R_{s} = 3.13>R_{r} = 1.74>1 $, $ R_{cs} = 0<1 $. Solution trajectories of the system converge to the CTL immune-free equilibrium $ E^{f} = (318355, 23056.2, 902393, 1.55640, 40.6104, 0) $

Figure 4. Predicted dynamics of system (4) under treatment. $ (a)-(d) $ represent uninfected cells, wild-type virus, resistant virus, and CTL cells, respectively. The blue solid line represents the case in which CTL cells are present. The parameters given in Table 1 are used and $ b=0.1 $. This yields $ R_{s}^{\prime}=1.57>R_{r}^{\prime}=1.54>1 $ and $ R_{cs}^{\prime}=36.30>1 $. Thus, solutions trajectories of the system converge to the interior equilibrium $ E^{\star\prime}=(733912, 7673.78, 243257, 13.8008, 346.384, 23.0628) $. The red dotted line refers to the case in which CTL cells are absent. Parameters from Table 1 are used and $ b=0.1, c=0 $. In this case, $ R_{s}^{\prime}=1.57>R_{r}^{\prime}=1.54>1 $ and $ R_{cs}^{\prime}=0<1 $. Solutions trajectories of the system converge to the CTL immune-free equilibrium $ E^{f\prime}=(635966, 12174.6, 476875, 21.8671, 571.018, 0) $

The solutions of the system converge to the infected equilibrium with drug-resistant strain and CTL immune response $ E^{rc\prime} = (928780, 0, 0, 1756.85, 45817.3, 52.7080) $. Figure $ (c)-(d) $ is similar to $ (a)-(b) $ except $ \eta_{s} = 0.4330, \eta_{r} = 0.0957 $. In this case, $ R_{r}^{\prime} = 1.573<R_{s}^{\prime} = 1.775, R_{cs}^{\prime} = 436.6>1 $. Both strains of virus persist and the solutions of the system converge to the interior equilibrium $ E^{\star\prime} = (872574, 2744.46, 86963.0, 0.722593, 18.1288, 82.2710) $.
