Clinical Trial Summary

Study to determine the effects of 28 days of nevirapine treatment on the steady-state pharmacokinetics of amprenavir and of abacavir and to further evaluate the pharmacokinetics of nevirapine in combination with amprenavir and abacavir compared to historical controls treated with nevirapine but without amprenavir or abacavir. In addition safety/tolerance of nevirapine, amprenavir and abacavir was to be assessed based on adverse events and clinical laboratory data.

• Patients who were informed of and willing and able to comply with the investigational nature of the study and had signed a written consent in accordance with institutional and federal guidelines

Exclusion Criteria:

• Female patients who were pregnant or breast-feeding

• Female patients who intended to change their double-barrier contraception method within 28 days prior to Study Day 0 and throughout the trial

• Patients who in the opinion of the investigator required treatment with a prohibited medication during the study including the potentially toxic substrates such as terfenadine, bepridil, astemizole, cisapride, triazolam, midazolam and ergotamine/dihydroergotamine containing regimes

• Patients taking known inhibitors or inducers of Cytochrome P450 metabolic enzymes including macrolide antibiotics (erythromycin, clarithromycin, azithromycin) azole antifungals (fluconazole, itraconazole) and phenytoin within 28 days prior or Study day 0 and throughout the trial

• Patients receiving immunomodulatory agents

• Ketoconazole, rifabutin and rifampin were excluded during screening and throughout the trial

• Patients with previous exposure to anti-retroviral, such as delavirdine, loviride, efavirenz, nevirapine, abacavir, saquinavir, ritonavir, indinavir, nelfinavir, amprenavir, zidovudine, Lamivudine (3TC), Stavudine (d4T), Didanosine (ddI) and Zalcitabine (ddC)

• Patients receiving any investigational drug or systemic corticosteroids within 30 days of the first dose of study medication and system corticosteroids initially as well as throughout the study and any antineoplastic agent of radiotherapy other than local skin radiotherapy treatment within 12 weeks before starting study medication

• Patients with malabsorption, severe chronic diarrhea or patients unable to maintain adequate oral intake

• Patients currently abusing alcohol or substance abusing; patients on methadone substitution programs might be considered for inclusion in the trial

• Patients undergoing treatment for an active infection

• Patients with hepatic insufficiency due to cirrhosis

• Patients with renal insufficiency

• Patients who were heavy smokers (e.g. > 20 cigarettes per day)

• Patients whose reliability was deemed to put them at risk for non-compliance with the study
