Study Overview
Brief Summary
This study evaluated the blood levels of atazanavir according to a genetic makeup for CYP3A5 (cytochrome P450 3A5, an enzyme that metabolizes atazanavir). The hypothesis was that people with a slow-metabolizing genotype would have higher blood levels of atazanavir compared to people with the normal metabolizing genotype.

CYP3A5 Non-expressors
A pre-screening genetic test determines CYP3A5 non-expressor status
Intervention: Atazanavir (Drug)
Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Day 7 Atazanavir Oral Clearance
Time Frame: Day 7
Measure atazanavir oral clearance in genetically-determined CYP3A5 expressors versus CYP3A5 non-expressors
Secondary Outcomes
