Primary Outcome Measures:
  • Pharmacokinetics of EFV derived from plasma concentrations versus time. [ Time Frame: Week 24 and 48 analysis of PK assessments (Weeks 2, 10 and potentially one other time) ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • Efficacy as measured by the proportion of subjects with plasma HIV RNA levels <400 copies/mL and <50 copies/mL [ Time Frame: Weeks 24 and 48 ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Safety as measured by the frequency and severity of [ Time Frame: Weeks 24 and 48 ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
  • adverse events [ Time Frame: Weeks 24 and 48 ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
  • treatment-related adverse events [ Time Frame: Weeks 24 and 48 ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
  • serious adverse events [ Time Frame: Weeks 24 and 48 ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
  • discontinuation from study due to adverse events [ Time Frame: Weeks 24 and 48 ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
  • laboratory abnormalities [ Time Frame: Weeks 24 and 48 ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]

Estimated Enrollment: 32
