Low Dose Atazanavir/r Versus Standard Dose Atazanavir/r (LASA)
- Conditions
- HIV Infections
- Interventions
- Drug: ATV/r
- Registration Number
- NCT01159223
- Brief Summary
This study will compare the efficacy and safety of ATV/r at either 200/100 mg or 300/100mg given daily in Thai patients in combination with 2NRTIs.
- Detailed Description
To demonstrate non-inferiority of treatment with atazanavir/ritonavir (ATV/r) 200/100 mg once daily (OD) compared to the control group (ATV/r 300/100 mg OD) in regards to the proportion of virologic responders (plasma HIV RNA \< 200 copies/mL) at 48 weeks in ARV-experienced HIV-1 infected subjects.

Group Intervention Description 1 ATV/r ATV/r 200 mg/100 mg OD 2 ATV/r ATV/r 300 mg/100 mg OD
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method noninferiority Dec. 2013 ATV/r 200/100 mg will be judged to be non-inferior to ATV 300/100mg if the lower limit of the 95% confidence interval for the difference in proportion of patients with virological response between the two groups does not exceed -10%
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method viral load DEc. 2013 A secondary efficacy analysis will explore the impact of changing the lower limit of detection of viral load to \<50 copies/mL
serious adverse events Dec. 2013 Changes in HDL, LDL, cholesterol, triglycerides and bilirubin, or having grade 3 and 4 laboratory adverse events
