Objective: To compare treatment outcomes between the regimens of single-boosted protease inhibitor (PI) and double-boosted PIs for the salvage therapy in patients who failed nonnucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI)-based regimens.
Methods: A total of 64 patients from 2 cohorts, 40 in twice daily ritonavir-boosted lopinavir (LPV/r) at 400/100 mg plus lamivudine (3TC) and 24 in once daily ritonavir-boosted atazanavir and saquinavir (ATV/SQV/r) at 300/1600/100 mg/d, were studied.
Results: At 48 weeks, 30 (75%) patients in LPV/r group and 20 (83%) patients in ATV/SQV/r group achieved HIV-1 RNA at <400 copies/mL (P = .790). In all, 24 (60%) and 16 (67%) achieved HIV-1 RNA at <50 copies/mL (P = .541). Low-level viral rebound (51-400 copies/mL) was found in 6 (15%) in LPV/r group and 4 (17%) in ATV/SQV/r group (P = 1.000). Medians CD4 counts were 336 cells/mm(3) and 330 cells/mm(3) in the corresponding groups (P = 0.937).
Conclusion: No additional benefit is found with double-boosted PIs compared to single-boosted PI in terms of treatment responses in HIV-infected patients failing NNRTI-based regimen.

A number of patients have experienced treatment failure while receiving non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI)-based antiretroviral therapy (ART), particularly in resource-limited countries. The need remains for clinical data on protease inhibitor (PI)-based regimens in these patients. A retrospective cohort study was conducted among HIV-1-infected patients who had failed NNRTI-based regimens, were naive to protease inhibitors (PIs), and subsequently initiated a salvage PI-based regimen between January 2004 and December 2006.

Background: Given the limited treatment options for patients with high-level resistance, antiretroviral (ARV) regimens based on concomitant use of 2 ritonavir (RTV)-boosted protease inhibitors (PIs) were considered a therapeutic option.
Methods: Boehringer Ingelheim (BI) study 1182.51 examined the pharmacokinetic profile, safety, and efficacy of RTV-boosted tipranavir (TPV/r), alone and in combination with comparator PIs (CPIs) in 315 triple-class-experienced, HIV-infected patients.

Dyslipidemia is a common metabolic complication among HIV-infected patients who receive protease inhibitor (PI)-based antiretroviral therapy (ART). In order to assess the prevalence of lipid abnormalities and related factors, a cross-sectional analytic study of the lipid profiles of 170 Thai adult HIV-infected patients receiving PI-containing HAART who attended the HIV-clinic, King Chulalongkorn Memorial Hospital, Bangkok, Thailand between January and August 2005 was conducted. Studied subjects had a median age of 40 years with a median duration of taking PIs of 22.
