Study on the Usage, Dosing, Tolerability, and Effectiveness of Kaletra Tablet - Full Text View

Purpose

The objective of this study is to observe and collect data on the usage, dosing, tolerability, and effectiveness of Kaletra (lopinavir/ritonavir) tablets in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected patients. In some patients, the study is to show the impact on tolerability of changing therapy to Kaletra tablets from other regimens.

Primary Outcome Measures:

Change From Baseline in Absolute Cluster of Differentiation 4 (CD4) Cell Count [ Time Frame: Baseline (Week 0) to Week 144 ]
Changes in participants' CD4 cell counts were assessed by measuring the change from Baseline in the number of CD4 cells at scheduled visits planned as part of routine care.
Change From Baseline in HIV-1 Ribonucleic Acid (RNA) Viral Load [ Time Frame: Baseline (Week 0) to Week 144 ]
Changes in participants' HIV-1 RNA viral load were assessed by measuring the change from Baseline at scheduled visits planned as part of routine care.

Other Outcome Measures:

Prevalence of Adverse Events (Weeks 0-144), Per Event [ Time Frame: Weeks 0 to 144 ]
Percentage of overall number of adverse events experienced during Weeks 0-144 by adverse event type. Doctors asked participants for adverse events, grouped them into categories given in the electronic case report form (eCRF). The list of adverse events included in the eCRF were hypertriglyceridemia, hypercholesterolemia, low high density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol, high low density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, hyperglycemia, hyperbilirubinemia, elevated aspartate aminotransferase (AST), elevated alanine aminotransferase (ALT), elevated gamma glutamyl transferase (γGT), elevated alkaline phosphatase, stomatitis, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain, mood disorder, neurocerebellar disorder, neurocontrol disorder, headache, fatigue, fever, other (listed as 'not specified').
Prevalence of Adverse Events (Weeks 0-144), Per Participant [ Time Frame: Weeks 0 to 144 ]
Percentage of participants who experienced at least 1 adverse event during Weeks 0-144 by adverse event type. Doctors asked participants for adverse events, grouped them into categories given in the eCRF. The list of adverse events included in the eCRF were hypertriglyceridemia, hypercholesterolemia, low HDL cholesterol, high LDL cholesterol, hyperglycemia, hyperbilirubinemia, elevated AST, elevated ALT, elevated γGT, elevated alkaline phosphatase, stomatitis, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain, mood disorder, neurocerebellar disorder, neurocontrol disorder, headache, fatigue, fever, other (listed as 'not specified').

Groups/Cohorts
HIV-infected Participants HIV-infected participants starting with Kaletra tablets. Participants included 3 subgroups: antiretroviral therapy (ART) treatment-naïve participants starting with Kaletra tablets participants receiving their first protease inhibitor (PI)-containing regimen (apart from Kaletra) pretreated with any non nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI)-containing or nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NRTI)-containing regimen participants pretreated with a PI-containing regimen (apart from Kaletra).

Groups/Cohorts

HIV-infected Participants

HIV-infected participants starting with Kaletra tablets.

Participants included 3 subgroups:

antiretroviral therapy (ART) treatment-naïve participants starting with Kaletra tablets
participants receiving their first protease inhibitor (PI)-containing regimen (apart from Kaletra) pretreated with any non nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI)-containing or nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NRTI)-containing regimen
participants pretreated with a PI-containing regimen (apart from Kaletra).

Detailed Description:

This study was designed as a non-interventional observational study. Kaletra was prescribed in the usual manner in accordance with the terms of the local market authorization with regards to dose, population and indication as well as local guidelines.
