A clinical trial or clinical study is a research project with human volunteer subjects. Clinical drug trials and pharmaceutical clinical trials typically assess the effectiveness of new does drugs. The function of the studies / projects is to figure out specific human medical questions. Clinical trials are a popular means for doctors, government agencies, and private sector corporations to find cures for all varieties of conditions, like Effectiveness and Safety of Epivir/Ziagen/Zerit (3TC/ABC/d4T) Versus Epivir/Ziagen/Sustiva (3TC/ABC/EFV) Versus Epivir/Ziagen/Agenerase/Norvir (3TC/ABC/APV/RTV) in HIV Patients Who Have Never Received Treatment.

Effectiveness and Safety of Epivir/Ziagen/Zerit (3TC/ABC/d4T) Versus Epivir/Ziagen/Sustiva (3TC/ABC/EFV) Versus Epivir/Ziagen/Agenerase/Norvir (3TC/ABC/APV/RTV) in HIV Patients Who Have Never Received Treatment

For Condition: HIV Infections
Status: No longer recruiting
Sponsor(s): Glaxo Wellcome ,
Synopsis: The purpose of this study is to see how effective and safe it is to give 1 of the 3 following treatments to patients who may not have received anti-HIV treatment: 1) lamivudine (3TC)/abacavir (ABC)/stavudine (d4T); 2) 3TC/ABC/efavirenz (EFV); or 3) 3TC/ABC/amprenavir (APV)/ritonavir (RTV).
Details: Patients are randomized to initiate antiretroviral therapy in 1 of 3 treatment groups. Within each group they are stratified based on HIV-1 plasma RNA levels. Group 1: Patients receive 3TC/ABC/d4T; Group 2: Patients receive 3TC/ABC/EFV; and Group 3: Patients receive 3TC/ABC/APV/RTV. Treatment continues for 96 weeks. Blood samples are collected to measure plasma HIV RNA and CD4 counts and patients are assessed regularly. In the event of incomplete viral suppression or virologic failure, patients will be switched to secondary therapy.
Eligibility:
Study Type:  Interventional, Treatment, Safety Study
Minimum Age/Maximum Age: 18 Years/
Genders: Both
Protocol Entry Criteria: Inclusion Criteria Patients may be eligible for this trial if they: - Are HIV-positive. - Are at least 18 years old. - Have a viral load of at least 5,000 copies/ml. - Have a CD4 count of at least 50 cells/mm3. - Agree to practice effective methods of birth control while on the study, if a woman. Patients are not eligible for this trial if they: Are pregnant or breast-feeding. Have ever taken anti-HIV drugs. (Less than 2 weeks of prior anti-HIV treatment is allowed.) Have a history of AIDS-defining opportunistic illness (except for Kaposi's sarcoma involving skin) within 45 days of the screening visit. Treatment for the illness must have been completed at least 30 days prior to screening. Are enrolled in another study where the medication may interfere with the control of viral load in this study. Have a serious medical condition such as diabetes or heart problems that would make it unsafe to be on this study. Have a history of a severe nerve disease of the type that may cause muscle weakness.
