Phase:

PHASE4

Brief Summary

The goal of this study is to examine whether enfuvirtide (T20, Fuzeon) has continued anti-HIV activity in patients experiencing an incomplete virologic response to an enfuvirtide-based regimen.

Detailed Description

Some patients do not achieve an undetectable HIV viral load with an enfuvirtide (T20, Fuzeon) based antiretroviral regimen. As a consequence, enfuvirtide resistant virus can emerge. It is not yet know...

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • Currently receiving continuous enfuvirtide-based antiretroviral therapy.
  • Documentation of recent plasma HIV RNA level greater than the lower limit of detection (measured within the preceding 4 weeks)
  • Screening plasma HIV-1 RNA level \> 1000 copies/mL.
  • Negative serum pregnancy test (for women of childbearing potential) documented within the 14-day period prior to study entry.
  • Subjects must be able to give written informed consent and agree to abide by the requirements of the study.

Exclusion

  • Unstable HIV disease status such that interrupting any antiretroviral therapy poses significant short-term risk for disease progression (as determined by study investigators and referring primary care provider).
  • Female subjects who are pregnant, breastfeeding, or who plan to become pregnant during the study.
  • Active hepatitis C infection requiring treatment with an interferon-based regimen.
  • Evidence of active, untreated opportunistic infections or unexplained temperature which is \> 38.5°C for seven consecutive days, within 30 days prior to the first screening visit.
