Phase 3
Completed
Conditions
HIV Infections
Registration Number
NCT00002220
Lead Sponsor
Merck Sharp & Dohme LLC
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to compare the effectiveness of giving indinavir plus efavirenz plus adefovir dipivoxil to patients who have failed treatment with nelfinavir and patients who have never taken a protease inhibitor (PI). Effectiveness is measured by the number of patients who have a viral load (level of HIV in the blood) below 400 copies/ml after 48 weeks of treatment.

Detailed Description

In this open-label, nonrandomized study, 120 HIV-infected patients are stratified into two groups: failed nelfinavir vs protease inhibitor-naive. All patients receive indinavir plus efavirenz plus adefovir dipivoxil plus and L-carnitine, orally. Plasma vRNA is measured every 4 weeks until Week 16, then every 8 weeks for the remainder of the 48-week study.
