Mens det kan bidrage til nedsat følsomhed over for atazanavir, når det forekommer med andre proteasesubstitutioner, har N88S i kliniske undersøgelser for sig selv ikke medført fænotyperesistens over for atazanavir eller konsekvent påvirket den kliniske effekt.
While it may contribute to decreased susceptibility to atazanavir when it occurs with other protease substitutions, in clinical studies N88S by itself does not lead to phenotypic resistance to atazanavir or have a consistent impact on clinical efficacy.
