This study has been completed.

First Received on September 17, 2007.   Last Updated on April 28, 2011   History of Changes
Sponsor: Boehringer Ingelheim Pharmaceuticals
Information provided by: Boehringer Ingelheim Pharmaceuticals
ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT00531206
  Purpose

This observational study is supposed to assess (under conditions of clinical practice in daily routine) whether treatment with Aptivus (tipranavir) in combination with low-dose Norvir (ritonavir) will durably suppress viral load and may achieve suppression of viral load below the limit of detection.

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • Adverse Events [ Time Frame: 52 weeks ]
    The safety and tolerability of the observed antiretroviral therapy were based on the Adverse Events (AEs) and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) reported in the case report forms.


Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • Change in Viral Load [ Time Frame: Baseline and 52 weeks ]
    Log10 change from baseline in viral load over time

  • CD4+ Cell Count [ Time Frame: Baseline and 52 weeks ]
    Change from baseline in CD4+ count over time

  • Subjective Well-being [ Time Frame: 52 weeks ]
    Investigator's opinion of patient's general condition (quality of life)


Enrollment: 65

Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

Highly pre-treated male and female adult patients with virus resistant to multiple protease inhibitors. Aptivus (tipranavir), co-administered with low dose Norvir (ritonavir), is indicated for combination antiretroviral treatment of HIV-1 infection in highly pre-treated adult patients with virus resistant to multiple protease inhibitors.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Age < 18 years
  • pregnant female patients
  • Hypersensitivity to the active substance or to any of the excipients.
  • Patients with moderate or severe (Child-Pugh B or C) hepatic impairment.
  • Rifampicin should not be used with Aptivus (tipranavir) because co-administration may cause large decreases in tipranavir concentrations which may in turn significantly decrease the tipranavir therapeutic effect.
  • Herbal preparations containing St John's wort must not be used while taking Aptivus (tipranavir) due to the risk of decreased plasma concentrations and reduced clinical effects of tipranavir.
  • Co-administration of Aptivus (tipranavir) with low dose Norvir (ritonavir), with active substances that are highly dependent on CYP3A for clearance and for which elevated plasma concentrations are associated with serious and/or life-threatening events is contraindicated. These active substances include antiarrhythmics (amiodarone, bepridil, quinidine), antihistamines (astemizole, terfenadine), ergot derivatives (dihydroergotamine, ergonovine, ergotamine, methylergonovine), gastrointestinal motility agents (cisapride), neuroleptics (pimozide, sertindole), sedatives/hypnotics (triazolam) and HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors (simvastatin and lovastatin). In addition, co-administration of Aptivus (tipranavir) with low dose Norvir (ritonavir), with drugs that are highly dependent on CYP2D6 for clearance, such as the antiarrhythmics flecainide and propafenone, is contraindicated.
