NCT00144183

Brief Summary

To determine whether a regimen of single dose nevirapine combined with either 4 or 7 days of Combivir®, compared to a regimen of single dose nevirapine, for the prevention of mother to child transmission can reduce the rate of development of drug resistant mutations of HIV-1, in HIV-1 infected pregnant women, who have not received antiretroviral therapy previously.

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexfemale
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Pregnant women identified at antenatal clinics after from 34 weeks gestation and who are antiretroviral drug naive.
  • Mothers with a documented positive HIV Rapid test confirmed by a detectable HI V-1 RNA PCR (viral load).
  • Mother to have a screening viral load of \> 2000 RNA copies/mL.

You may not qualify if:

  • Mothers who, in the opinion of the investigator ,cannot be relied on to return with their infants for postnatal visits.
  • Mothers who have received any antiretroviral drugs previously.
  • Clinical suspicion of intra-uterine foetal death
  • Unwillingness or inability to reasonably comply with the protocol requirements.
  • Use of any other investigational product during the pregnancy and for the dura tion of the study period.
  • Patients with a recent history of pancreatitis or peripheral neuropathy.
  • Patients with renal failure requiring dialysis.
  • Patients with evidence of hepatic dysfunction as measured by total bilirubin \> 2.5 times ULN or AST/ALT \> 5 times ULN at the screening visit.
  • Patients with any one of the following additional laboratory abnormalities at screening : Haemoglobin concentration \< 7.5 g/dl. Neutrophil count \< 750 cells/mm3. Platelet count \< 75,000 cells/mm3. Serum amylase \> 2 x ULN.
  • recent history ( during the pregnancy) of drug abuse or alcoholism.
  • Mothers who will undergo elective caesarean section.
  • If known prior to delivery, mothers with foetuses with anomalies incompatible with life.
