Purpose
There is a rapidly-growing need to identify evidence-based, safe, and effective co-treatment regimens for HIV-related tuberculosis (TB) among patients who require protease inhibitor-based antiretroviral therapy. This study will compare three alternative co-treatment options among participants in high TB endemic resource-constrained settings, in which one co-treatment option explores if an additional anti-HIV drug needs to be used when patients are being treated with a protease inhibitor together with rifabutin-based anti-TB treatment.
Accrual will take place in two accrual periods. Accrual period 1 will enroll 60 participants who will undergo an initial dose-finding period before continuing regular study follow-up. Once the review of the dose-finding pharmacokinetic and safety data from accrual period 1 participants is completed, accrual period 2 will begin.
