The use of HIV protease inhibitors (PIs) in a ritonavir (RTV)-boosted form is now common. However, randomized data comparing boosted with unboosted PI strategies are scarce.
This randomized, open-label trial compared indinavir (IDV) 800 mg three times daily with IDV/RTV 800/100 mg twice daily, both given with zidovudine (AZT)/lamivudine (3TC) twice daily in individuals with at least 3 months previous AZT experience. The primary endpoint was the time-weighted average change in HIV RNA from baseline. Designed as a 48-week study, follow-up continued until week 112. Primary analysis is by intention to treat.
One hundred and three patients commenced therapy and are included in the analysis. Patients had a median of 29 months past nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NRTI) exposure. Baseline median (interquartile range) log10 HIV RNA was 4.0 (3.3-4.5) and CD4+ T-cell count 166 (40-323) cells/microl. After 112-weeks of study there was no significant difference observed between arms in the mean (SD) change in time-weighted average HIV RNA from baseline (-1.6 [1.1] HIV RNA copies/week/ml three times daily arm; -1.4 [1.1] HIV RNA copies/week/ml twice daily arm; P = 0.3). Both arms were associated with substantial toxicity expressed as serious adverse events and study drug interruptions. The twice daily arm experienced greater dyslipidaemia. Mean (SD) changes in time-weighted CD4+ T-cell count from baseline were similar [88 (84) cells/week/microl three times daily arm; 70 [109] cells/week/microl twice daily arm; P = 0.3).
RTV-boosted IDV 800/100 mg twice daily demonstrated comparable efficacy to unboosted IDV 800 mg three times daily dosing. Both regimens were associated with substantial toxicity. Use of lower doses of RTV-boosted IDV may result in better tolerability without loss of efficacy and warrant further research.
以利托那韦(RTV)增强形式使用HIV蛋白酶抑制剂(PIs)目前很常见。然而,比较增强型与未增强型PI策略的随机数据很少。
这项随机、开放标签试验比较了每日三次服用800毫克茚地那韦(IDV)与每日两次服用800/100毫克IDV/RTV,两者均与齐多夫定(AZT)/拉米夫定(3TC)每日两次联合使用,对象为至少有3个月AZT使用经验的个体。主要终点是HIV RNA相对于基线的时间加权平均变化。设计为一项为期48周的研究,随访持续至第112周。主要分析采用意向性治疗。
103名患者开始治疗并纳入分析。患者接受核苷类逆转录酶抑制剂(NRTI)治疗的中位时间为29个月。基线时HIV RNA的中位对数(四分位间距)为4.0(3.3 - 4.5),CD4 + T细胞计数为166(40 - 323)个/微升。经过112周的研究,两组在HIV RNA相对于基线的时间加权平均变化均值(标准差)方面未观察到显著差异(每日三次服用组为 - 1.6 [1.1] HIV RNA拷贝/周/毫升;每日两次服用组为 - 1.4 [1.1] HIV RNA拷贝/周/毫升;P = 0.3)。两组均伴有以严重不良事件和研究药物中断表示的大量毒性。每日两次服用组血脂异常更严重。相对于基线的时间加权CD4 + T细胞计数的均值(标准差)变化相似(每日三次服用组为88 [84] 个/周/微升;每日两次服用组为70 [109] 个/周/微升;P = 0.3)。
每日两次服用800/100毫克RTV增强型IDV显示出与每日三次服用800毫克未增强型IDV相当的疗效。两种方案均伴有大量毒性。使用较低剂量的RTV增强型IDV可能会导致更好的耐受性且不损失疗效,值得进一步研究。
