The Safety and Effectiveness of (+)-Calanolide A in HIV-Infected Patients Who Have Never Taken Anti-HIV Drugs
A Phase IB Study to Evaluate the Safety, Pharmacokinetics, and Effects of (+)-Calanolide A on Surrogate Markers in HIV-Positive Patients With No Previous Antiretroviral Therapy

The purpose of this study is to see if it is safe and effective to give calanolide A to HIV-infected adults who have not used anti-HIV drugs in the past.

Patients are randomized to receive (+)-calanolide A or placebo for 21 days. All patients may elect to receive an open-label, 3-month course of approved retroviral therapy (up to triple-drug therapy) to be selected by, and administered under the care of, the patients' physicians. If the patient has no insurance coverage or does not wish to utilize his/her insurance for anti-HIV medications, Sarawak MediChem Pharmaceuticals will provide these medications at no charge for up to 3 months.
