NCT00117728

Brief Summary

This study is designed to test if a sequential protease-inhibitor (PI) - / nevirapine (NVP) -based regimen is effective for the treatment of HIV-infected children when previous NVP exposure has occurred as part of programs to prevent mother-to-child transmission (pMTCT).

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Virologic suppression at 6 months after randomization

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • To compare the time to virologic failure up to 18 months post randomization

  • to examine the associations between detection of drug resistance mutation and virologic response to treatment

  • to compare the toxicity profiles and adherence in the two groups

  • to describe the emergence of genotypic resistance in the two groups
