Capravirine (AG1549) in Combination With Viracept and Two NRTIs in HIV Infected Patients Who Failed an Initial NNRTI Containing Regimen - Full Text View

Purpose

This is a 48 week study that is intended for HIV Infected persons whose first treatment regimen was with a nonnucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI) and who are now failing that regimen. They must be currently on their failing regimen to be eligible.

Official Title:	A Double Blind- Randomized, Placebo-Controlled Study of Two Doses of Capravirine (AG1549) in Combination With Viracept and Two Nucleoside Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitors in HIV Infected Patients Who Failed an Initial Nonnucleoside Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitor Containing Regimen

Further study details as provided by Pfizer:

Primary Outcome Measures:

The primary objective was to determine whether the addition of capravirine to a regimen of VIRACEPT and 2 new nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors would provide a higher virologic response rate over 48 weeks
when compared to a 3-drug regimen without capravirine in patients who had experienced virologic failure while on a nonnucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor regimen.

Secondary Outcome Measures:

The safety and tolerability of 2 doses of capravirine.
The difference between 2 doses of capravirine in terms of tolerability, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics
The relationship of HIV resistance (genotype and phenotype) to virologic response.
The immunologic response as determined by CD4 and CD8 absolute lymphocyte counts
The population pharmacokinetics of capravirine and VIRACEPT
The pharmacokinetics of potential drug-drug interactions.

Estimated Enrollment:	150
Study Start Date:	August 2002
