Genotypic tropism testing (GTT) for co-receptor usage is a recommended tool for clinical practice before administration of the CCR5-antagonist maraviroc. For some isolates, phenotypic tropism testing (PTT) revealed discordant results with GTT. In this study, we performed a comparative study between GTT and PTT in HIV-1C from East Africa (HIV-1C
