NCT00006490

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to compare 2 different types of tests of the HIV virus to see which specific anti-HIV drugs would work the best. Drug resistance is a major reason for therapy failure in HIV patients. Two types of tests can detect resistance to drugs: 1) genotyping (sequencing), which looks at the DNA sequence of a virus to see whether it has developed any genetic resistance; 2) phenotyping, which looks at the ability of different drugs to suppress virus growth in the laboratory. Genotyping and phenotyping can help doctors give patients the most effective drug therapy.

You may qualify if:

  • Patients may be eligible for this study if they:
  • Are HIV-positive.
  • Have failed 2 to 4 anti-HIV regimens containing 3 or more combinations of drugs. A patient has failed his/her current regimen if he/she has, within 30 days of study entry, either a viral load (level of HIV in the blood) of at least 10,000 copies/ml or 2 tests which show a viral load between 1,000 and 10,000 copies/ml.
  • Have taken 3 or more anti-HIV drugs for 8 or more weeks before the study.
  • Are at least 14 years old.
  • Have consent of parent or guardian if less than 18 years old.

You may not qualify if:

  • Patients will not be eligible for this study if they:
  • Have failed only 1 anti-HIV drug combination.
  • Have failed 5 or more anti-HIV drug combinations, each containing 3 to 5 drugs.
  • Have had and received the results of prior resistance tests.
  • Have had treatment with a combination of 6 or more anti-HIV drugs.
  • Have problems absorbing food in the intestine.
  • Have had HIV vaccines.
  • Have taken drugs that affect the immune system or investigational drugs.
  • Are taking medications not allowed with protease inhibitors (PIs) if PIs would be part of their anti-HIV treatment during the study.
  • Have failed anti-HIV therapy due to nonadherence to medication.
