Switching HIV-1 Infected Subjects From a Highly Active Anti-Retroviral Treatment (HAART) Regimen Dosed Twice Daily or More Frequently to a Once-Daily Regimen

This study has been completed.

Sponsored by:	Bristol-Myers Squibb
Information provided by:	Bristol-Myers Squibb
ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier:	NCT00135369

Purpose

The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that virologically controlled HIV-infected individuals can successfully switch from a standard-of-care regimen dosed twice-daily or more frequently to a simpler once-daily (QD) regimen while maintaining virologic control, as evaluated by the proportion of subjects who continue to have plasma HIV-1 levels <50 copies/mL after switching to a QD regimen.
