Cellular HIV-1 DNA level was sequentially measured by quantitative polymerase chain reaction in 141 patients not previously treated with highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART), who were enrolled in a 72-week randomized trial (ANRS 081 "Trianon") comparing 2 regimens, including 3 drugs from 2 classes (indinavir + stavudine + lamivudine, group 1) or 3 classes (indinavir + stavudine + nevirapine, group 2). The median decrease from baseline to week 72 in cellular HIV-1 DNA level was not significantly different between the 2 groups (0.54 and 0.

We compared use of a 3-class regimen (nevirapine [Nvp], stavudine [d4T], and indinavir [Idv; 1000 mg 3 times daily]) with use of a 2-class regimen (lamivudine [3TC], d4T, and Idv [800 mg 3 times daily]) for 145 patients infected with human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1). At week 72, the plasma HIV-1 RNA level was undetectable in 52% of Nvp recipients versus 79% of 3TC recipients (P<.001).
