Improved treatment options are needed for patients infected with multidrug-resistant human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1). The nonpeptidic protease inhibitor tipranavir has demonstrated antiviral activity against many protease inhibitor-resistant HIV-1 isolates. The Randomized Evaluation of Strategic Intervention in multi-drug reSistant patients with Tipranavir (RESIST-1) trial is an ongoing, open-label study comparing the efficacy and safety of ritonavir-boosted tipranavir (TPV/r) with an investigator-selected ritonavir-boosted comparator protease inhibitor (CPI/r) in treatment-experienced, HIV-1-infected patients.
Six hundred twenty antiretroviral-experienced patients were treated at 125 sites in North America and Australia. Before randomization, all patients underwent genotypic resistance testing, which investigators used to select a CPI/r and an optimized background regimen. Patients were randomized to receive TPV/r or CPI/r and were stratified on the basis of preselected protease inhibitor and enfuvirtide use. Treatment response was defined as a confirmed reduction in the HIV-1 load of > or = 1 log10 less than the baseline level without treatment change at week 24.
Mean baseline HIV-1 loads and CD4+ cell counts were 4.74 log10 copies/mL and 164 cells/mm3, respectively. At week 24, a total of 41.5% of patients in the TPV/r arm and 22.3% in the CPI/r arm had a > or = 1-log10 reduction in the HIV-1 load (intent-to-treat population; P<.0001). Mean increases in the CD4+ cell count of 54 and 24 cells/mm3 occurred in the TPV/r and CPI/r groups, respectively. Adverse events were slightly more common in the TPV/r group and included diarrhea, nausea, and vomiting. Elevations in alanine and aspartate aminotransferase levels and in cholesterol/triglyceride levels were more frequent in the TPV/r group.
TPV/r demonstrated superior antiviral activity, compared with investigator-selected, ritonavir-boosted protease inhibitors, at week 24 in treatment-experienced patients with multidrug-resistant HIV-1 infection.
对于感染多重耐药1型人类免疫缺陷病毒(HIV-1)的患者,需要有更好的治疗选择。非肽类蛋白酶抑制剂替拉那韦已显示出对许多耐蛋白酶抑制剂的HIV-1分离株具有抗病毒活性。替拉那韦在多重耐药患者中的随机策略干预评估(RESIST-1)试验是一项正在进行的开放标签研究,比较了利托那韦增强的替拉那韦(TPV/r)与研究者选择的利托那韦增强的对照蛋白酶抑制剂(CPI/r)在有治疗经验的HIV-1感染患者中的疗效和安全性。
620名有抗逆转录病毒治疗经验的患者在北美和澳大利亚的125个地点接受治疗。在随机分组前,所有患者均接受基因型耐药检测,研究者据此选择一种CPI/r和一种优化的背景治疗方案。患者被随机分配接受TPV/r或CPI/r,并根据预先选定的蛋白酶抑制剂和恩夫韦肽的使用情况进行分层。治疗反应定义为在第24周时HIV-1载量确认降低≥1 log10且低于基线水平,同时未改变治疗方案。
基线时HIV-1载量的平均值和CD4+细胞计数分别为4.74 log10拷贝/mL和164个细胞/mm3。在第24周时,TPV/r组共有41.5%的患者HIV-1载量降低≥1 log10,CPI/r组为22.3%(意向性治疗人群;P<0.0001)。TPV/r组和CPI/r组的CD4+细胞计数平均分别增加了54个和24个细胞/mm3。不良事件在TPV/r组中略为常见,包括腹泻、恶心和呕吐。TPV/r组中丙氨酸和天冬氨酸转氨酶水平以及胆固醇/甘油三酯水平升高更为频繁。
在有治疗经验的多重耐药HIV-1感染患者中,在第24周时,与研究者选择的利托那韦增强的蛋白酶抑制剂相比,TPV/r显示出更强的抗病毒活性。
