Purpose
The purpose of this study was to find a safe and tolerable dose of the protease inhibitor (PI) atazanavir (ATV), with or without a low-dose boost of the PI ritonavir (RTV), when taken with other anti-HIV drugs in HIV infected infants, children, and adolescents.
Advancements in anti-HIV drugs for HIV infected children and adolescents have been hard to make, in part because these patients often do not take the drugs as prescribed. ATV may be a better option because it is available in the form of powder which children and adolescents may be more willing to take regularly. Using a low dose of RTV as a boosting agent for ATV may also increase the chances of virologic response of highly active antiretroviral treatment (HAART)-experienced patients. This study aimed to find safe and tolerable doses of ATV with or without low-dose RTV boost in infants, children, and adolescents. For this study, participants were enrolled in the United States and South Africa.

Primary Outcome Measures:
- Number of Participants Who Experienced a Safety Endpoint of Interest Attributed to ATV [ Time Frame: From study entry up to week 96 ]
Total Bilirubin >= 5.1xULN, ECG Events and Other Grade 3+ toxicities attributed to study treatment.
The AEs were graded by the clinicians according to the Division of AIDS (DAIDS) Toxicity Table (see references in the Protocol Section) as follows: Grade 1=Mild, Grade 2=Moderate, Grade 3=Severe, Grade 4=Potentially Life-Threatening, Grade 5=Death. Relationship to study treatment was determined by the study team.
- Number of Participants Who Died [ Time Frame: From study entry up to week 96 ]
- Pharmacokinetic (PK) Parameter: Area Under the Curve (AUC24h) [ Time Frame: Week 1 (Day 7) Intensive PK-24hr (Pre-Dose, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, and 12 hours post-dose and the following day at 24-hours post-dose) ]Pharmacokinetics were determined by non-compartmental analysis and AUC0-24hr calculated by the linear trapezoidal method.
- Pharmacokinetic (PK) Parameter: Minimum Plasma Concentration (C24) [ Time Frame: Week 1 (Day 7) Intensive PK-24hr (Pre-dose, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, and 12 hours post-dose and the following day at 24-hours post-dose) ]Pharmacokinetics were determined by non-compartmental analysis. C24 determined visually, except in the instance when the patient re-dosed the study medication prior to the 24 hour blood draw or the 24 hour level was not obtained, in which case the C24 was calculated from the elimination rate (ke) and the last measured concentration.
- Pharmacokinetic (PK) Parameter: Maximum Plasma Concentration (Cmax) [ Time Frame: Week 1 (Day 7) Intensive PK-24 hr (Pre-dose, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, and 12 hours post-dose and the following day at 24-hours post-dose) ]Pharmacokinetics were determined by non-compartmental analysis and Maximum concentration (Cmax) was determined visually.
- Pharmacokinetic (PK) Parameter: Clearance (CL/F) [ Time Frame: Week 1 (Day 7) Intensive PK-24 hr (Pre-dose, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, and 12 hours post-dose and the following day at 24-hours post-dose) ]Pharmacokinetics were determined by non-compartmental analysis and Apparent oral clearance (CL/F) was calculated as ATV dose divided by AUC0-24hr.
Secondary Outcome Measures:
- Percentage of Participants With HIV RNA <400 Copies/mL at Week 24 [ Time Frame: Week 24 ]Over the duration of the protocol, the assay used to determine Plasma HIV RNA levels was transitioned from the Amplicor HIV-1 Assay to the Amplicor HIV-1 Monitor 1.5 UltraSensitive Assay (Roche Molecular Systems, Branchburg, NJ) to finally the Abbott Real time HIV-1 RNA assay. The assays were performed according to the manufacturer's instructions in a laboratory accredited by the College of American Pathologists and certified by the NIH Virology Quality Assurance (VQA) in the United States, and VQA certified in South Africa.
- Percentage of Participants With HIV RNA <400 Copies/mL at Week 48 [ Time Frame: Week 48 ]Over the duration of the protocol, the assay used to determine Plasma HIV RNA levels was transitioned from the Amplicor HIV-1 Assay to the Amplicor HIV-1 Monitor 1.5 UltraSensitive Assay (Roche Molecular Systems, Branchburg, NJ) to finally the Abbott Real time HIV-1 RNA assay. The assays were performed according to the manufacturer's instructions in a laboratory accredited by the College of American Pathologists and certified by the NIH Virology Quality Assurance (VQA) in the United States, and VQA certified in South Africa.
- Percentage of Participants With HIV RNA <400 Copies/mL at Week 96 [ Time Frame: Week 96 ]Over the duration of the protocol, the assay used to determine Plasma HIV RNA levels was transitioned from the Amplicor HIV-1 Assay to the Amplicor HIV-1 Monitor 1.5 UltraSensitive Assay (Roche Molecular Systems, Branchburg, NJ) to finally the Abbott Real time HIV-1 RNA assay. The assays were performed according to the manufacturer's instructions in a laboratory accredited by the College of American Pathologists and certified by the NIH Virology Quality Assurance (VQA) in the United States, and VQA certified in South Africa.
