A Multicenter, Open-Label, Randomized, 24-Week Study to Compare the Safety and Activity of Indinavir Sulfate, 800 Mg q 8 h Versus 1,200 Mg q 12 h in Combination With Zidovudine and 3TC

Condition(s) targeted: HIV Infections

Intervention: Indinavir sulfate (Drug); Lamivudine (Drug); Stavudine (Drug); Zidovudine (Drug)

Phase: Phase 3

Status: Completed

Sponsored by: Merck

Summary

To demonstrate that the antiviral activity and safety/tolerability of a test regimen of indinavir is equivalent to that of a control regimen of indinavir when each is coadministered with zidovudine (ZDV) (or stavudine, d4T) and lamivudine (3TC) for 24 weeks to protease inhibitor- and 3TC-naive HIV-1-seropositive patients. To characterize the steady-state pharmacokinetic profiles of indinavir, ZDV (or d4T), and 3TC in the presence of each other, for both the control and test regimen groups.

Clinical Details

Official title: A Multicenter, Open-Label, Randomized, 24-Week Study to Compare the Safety and Activity of Indinavir Sulfate, 800 Mg q 8 h Versus 1,200 Mg q 12 h in Combination With Zidovudine and 3TC

Study design: Treatment, Pharmacokinetics Study

Detailed description: Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 arms:

Arm A: Indinavir plus ZDV plus 3TC. Arm B: Indinavir (test dose) plus ZDV plus 3TC. NOTE: d4T may be substituted for zidovudine for toxicity management. Patients are stratified based on prior use of nucleoside analogs (naive vs experienced to ZDV, dideoxyinosine [ddI], dideoxycytidine [ddC], and d4T) and screening viral RNA results (lower than 50,000 copies/mL vs more than 50,000 copies/mL).

Eligibility

Minimum age: 16 Years. Maximum age: N/A. Gender(s): Both.

Criteria:

Inclusion Criteria

Patients must have:

- HIV-1 seropositive status.

- CD4 count greater than 100 cells/mm3.

- Viral RNA above 10,000 copies/mL.

- Consent from parent or guardian if less than 18 years of age.

Exclusion Criteria

Prior Medication:

Excluded:

- Prior therapy with protease inhibitors.

- Prior therapy with 3TC.
