Journal ArticleDOI
Identification of the K103N resistance mutation in Ugandan women receiving nevirapine to prevent HIV-1 vertical transmission.
J. B. Jackson,Graziella Becker-Pergola,Laura Guay,P. Musoke,Martin Mracna,Mary Glenn Fowler,Mary Glenn Fowler,Lynne M. Mofenson,Mark Mirochnick,Francis Mmiro,Susan H. Eshleman +10 more
TL;DR: This preliminary study demonstrates that HIV-1 with the RT K103N mutation can be detected in some Ugandan women following a single dose of NVP, suggesting that non-nucleoside RT inhibitor resistance may be selected in some people by single dose NVP prophylaxis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Impact of Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1 (HIV-1) Subtype on Women Receiving Single-Dose Nevirapine Prophylaxis to Prevent HIV-1 Vertical Transmission (HIV Network for Prevention Trials 012 Study)
Susan H. Eshleman,Graziella Becker-Pergola,Martina Deseyve,Laura Guay,Martin Mracna,Thomas Fleming,Thomas Fleming,Shawn Cunningham,Philippa Musoke,Francis Mmiro,J. Brooks Jackson +10 more
TL;DR: Examination of the relationship between HIV-1 subtype, MTCT, and the development of Nvp resistance (Nvp(R) among women enrolled in HIVNET 012 finds no apparent difference in the rate of MTCT among women with subtype A versus D.
Journal ArticleDOI
ERalpha-status of disseminated tumour cells in bone marrow of primary breast cancer patients
Tanja Fehm,Natalia Krawczyk,E. F. Solomayer,Graziella Becker-Pergola,Silke Dürr-Störzer,Hans Neubauer,Harald Seeger,Annette Staebler,Diethelm Wallwiener,Sven Becker +9 more
TL;DR: Most of the DTCs were ERα negative despite the presence of an ERα-positive primary tumour, which may explain the failure rates seen in conventional endocrine adjuvant therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Detection of cytokeratin-positive cells in the bone marrow of breast cancer patients undergoing adjuvant therapy
TL;DR: The bone marrow status of 112 patients undergoing postoperative adjuvant treatment before and after therapy was investigated, finding disseminated tumor cells had been found in the bone marrow before initiation of systemic chemo/endocrine therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Analysis of HIV type 1 protease and reverse transcriptase in antiretroviral drug-naive Ugandan adults.
Graziella Becker-Pergola,Peter Kataaha,L. Johnston-Dow,S. Fung,J. B. Jackson,Susan H. Eshleman +5 more
TL;DR: This analysis significantly increases the number of Ugandan protease and RT sequences characterized to date and demonstrates successful use of a commercial HIV-1 genotyping system for analysis of diverse non-B HIV- 1 subtypes.
