This program includes:
- Three unique talks which can be delivered to your clinic or
center by one of the internationally acclaimed faculty in a live or online webinar format. It is also possible for an
individual to join and participate in one of the live webinar
events by going to the list of these programs posted at

strategies regarding the management of ARV-experienced patients.
- 6 patient cases in which specific patient issues - including
multi-drug resistance, use of new antiretroviral agents and
adherence - are discussed and clinical strategies for
addressing them are provided.
GOAL:
The goal of this overall program is to provide participants
an opportunity to increase their knowledge around the
antiretroviral (ARV) therapies for treatment-experienced
patients, how to maximize success in creating potent ARV
regimens and reinforce the importance of driving HIV-RNA to
<50 copies/mL and maintaining patients at that level for as
long as possible.
