Inclusion Criteria
  1. Signed informed consent before study participation
  2. Age >18 and <60 years
  3. Female patients of child-bearing potential who use a barrier contraceptive method for at least 12 weeks before administration of study medication, during the study and for 28 days after administration of study medication has ended and who have a negative pregnancy test result
  4. Ability to swallow capsules without difficulty
  5. A Body Mass Index (BMI) between 18 and 29 kg/m2
  6. Reasonable probability of completing the study
  7. A medical history, physical examination, and electrocardiogram (ECG) before entering the study
  8. Agreement to abstain from alcohol from Day -2 to Day 24
  9. Agreement to abstain from ingesting grapefruit, grapefruit juice, Seville oranges or orange marmalade from Day -2 to Day 24
  10. Negative urine drug screen for drugs of abuse
  11. Documented HIV-1 RNA load (by PCR) at screening of <50 copies/mL for at least 3 months and on a stable ZDV or ABC regimen for at least 6 months. Acceptable documentation included laboratory data, letter, or verbal report from another provider noted in the patient's records
  12. All HIV-infected patients must be TPV naïve and must not have received a PI based regimen within 6 months of enrollment
Exclusion Criteria
  1. Female patients who had a positive serum pregnancy test during the screening period of Day -14 to Day -7 or who plan to breast-feed at time (Day 0 to 30 after TPV/r administration)
  2. Use of any other investigational medicine within 30 days before Day 0
  3. Use of any known CYP3A4 altering drug (i.e., phenothiazines, cimetidine, barbiturates, ketoconazole, fluconazole, rifampin, steroids and herbal medications) within 30 days before Day 0. No antibiotics were permitted within 10 days before Day 0
  4. Ingestion of grapefruit, grapefruit juice, Seville oranges, or orange marmalade within 2 days of study entry (Day 0)
  5. Blood or plasma donations (>100 mL total) for research or altruistic reasons within 30 days before Day 0
  6. Seated systolic blood pressure either <100 mm Hg or >150 mm Hg; resting heart rate either <50 beats/minute or >90 beats/minute
  7. History of any illness (including malabsorption, irregular food intake, gastrointestinal intolerance, or allergy) that, in the opinion of the investigator, might confound the results of the study or pose additional risks in administering TPV/r
  8. Any acute illness within 2 weeks before Day 0
  9. Patients who were currently taking any over-the-counter medication within 7 days before Day 0, or who were currently taking any prescription drug that, in the opinion of the investigator (in consultation with the BI medical monitor or pharmacokineticist), would have interfered with either the absorption, distribution, or metabolism of TPV or ritonavir
  10. Hypersensitivity to TPV, ritonavir, or sulfonamide containing drugs, or antiretroviral drugs (marketed or experimental use as part of clinical research studies)
  11. Sulfonamide allergy, that in the opinion of the investigator, might confound the results of the study or pose additional risks in administering TPV/r
  12. Any laboratory value outside the normal reference range that is of clinical relevance at screening, according to the judgment of the investigator (i.e., aspartate aminotransferase and alanine aminotransferase levels 2.5-fold and 2.5-fold higher than the upper normal limit, respectively)
  13. Based on the compliance diary, the patient had less than 100% documented compliance for 7-14 days of background Antiretroviral (ARV) (i.e., ZDV and ABC) medications before Day -5 to 0 (visit 2)
  14. Use of any protease inhibitors (i.e., fosamprenavir, amprenavir, indinavir, saquinavir, lopinavir, ritonavir, atazanavir, and nelfinavir) within 6 months of enrollment
  15. Patients who are co-infected with active Hepatitis B and/or C as determined by hepatitis serology.
  16. Use of any anti-platelet medications (e.g. aspirin, dipyridamole, clopidogrel, or any over the counter anti-platelet medicine).
