NCT00294892

Brief Summary

Primary

  • pharmacokinetics of single dose nevirapine
  • the effect of single dose carbamazepine on the pk of single dose nevirapine
  • resistance against nevirapine before and after.
  • follow-up on HIV status newborns
  • relation between nevirapine levels in cord blood and plasma Secondary \* safety of single dose nevirapine and nevirapine/carbamazepine Hypothesis: Single dose carbamazepine decreases development of resistance to nevirapine in HIV positive pregnant Tanzanian women by decreasing nevirapine half-life.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (4)

  • Cord blood will be taken less than 30 minutes after delivery

    0 - 30 min after delivery

  • Blood samples from mother will be taken less than 30 minutes after delivery to measure viral load and CD4 count.

    0 - 30 min after delivery

  • Blood samples will be drawn from mother and child at week 1 (day 6-8), week 2 (day 13-15) and week 3 (day 20-22)

    day 6 - 22 after delivery

  • From all samples plasma nevirapine and if applicable carbamazepine levels will be determined in women and newborns.

    0 30 min after delivery - week 3 after delivery

Study Arms (2)

Carbamazepine

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

An oral dose of 400mg Carbamazepine is added to the 200mg oral dose Nevirapine intake prior delivery

Drug: carbamazepine and nevirapine

Nevirapine

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

Standard therapy of 200mg Nevirapine oral prior to delivery

Drug: Nevirapine

Interventions

Carbamazepine 400mg and Nevirapine 200mg are taken just before delivery during labor.

Carbamazepine

Nevirapine 200mg is taken prior to delivery during labor.

Nevirapine
