ID Number / Protocol Name: (HPR20001; STRIVE) A Phase IIB, Randomized, Multicenter, Parallel Group Study to Evaluate the Short-Term Safety, PK and Antiviral Activity of Four Dosing Regimens of GW640385/Rtv Therapy Compared to Open-Label Current Protease Inhibitor (PI) Therapy in HIV-1, PI-Experienced Adults for 2 Wks With Long-Term Evaluation (>48 Wks) of Safety, PK and Antiviral Activity of Selected GW640385/Rtv Dosing Regimen(s) Vs. a RTV-Boosted, PI Containing Regimen
Age / Gender Requirements Regimen Entrance Criteria Details
CD4 Count Viral Load Previous HIV Treatment
18 Years and above. Genders Eligible for Study: Both 4 blinded doses of GW640385 boosted with rtv for 15 days. Continue until drug is approved.
 
Any Greater than or equal to 1,000 copies/mL At least 2 multi-PI resistant mutations at Screening or within 3 months of Screening.

Must have been receiving the same anti-HIV medicines that they are on currently for at least 8 weeks prior to Screening. These anti-HIV medicines will include a single protease inhibitor (PI) in combination with a low dose of ritonavir (i.e., a ritonavir-boosted PI). However, the current PI cannot be tipranavir.

1) This study is also known as HPR20001; STRIVE.

2) Stipend for 12 hour pharmacokinetic study visit.
