%X <B>OBJECTIVE: </B>Dolutegravir is a second-generation integrase strand transfer inhibitor of particular interest as a rescue treatment for people living with HIV (PLWHIV) who develop resistance to multiple antiretrovirals (ART). We assessed the virological treatment response in patients switched to a dolutegravir-based regimen following failure of previous ART treatment in a real-world treatment setting.<BR><B>METHODS: </B>This was a multicenter, longitudinal, observational study with retrospective patient enrolment. Patients were enrolled between February 2017 and January 2018. Patients starting dolutegravir treatment between February 2014 and September 2016 were retrospectively included. Patients were followed up for 24 months after dolutegravir initiation. During this period, treatment with dolutegravir could be discontinued at any time at the physician's discretion. Treatment failure was either defined as a viral load≥50 copies/mL at two consecutive blood samples or as clinical or biological safety issues. Overall, 459 patients were enrolled and 329 completed 24 months of treatment. The primary study outcome measures were treatment response and time to treatment response.<BR><B>RESULTS: </B>346/440 patients (78.6%) achieved a treatment response; 86 patients discontinued dolutegravir treatment (of whom 17 for failure to achieve or maintain viral suppression and 38 for tolerability issues). Acquired dolutegravir-resistance mutations were identified in five patients.<BR><B>CONCLUSIONS: </B>A sustained treatment response can be obtained with a dolutegravir-based treatment regimen in PLWHIV experiencing treatment failure, even in vulnerable patients with a long history of previous ART failure, infected with multidrug-resistant HIV strains, and with multiple comorbidities.
