Official Title: The Pharmacokinetics of SAquinavir (Invirase New Tablet Formulation) 1,000mg + Ritonavir (Norvir) 100mg q12h in HIV-Infected Pregnant Women (SARA)

Further study details as provided by Radboud University:

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • pharmacokinetics at week 20 and 33 of gestation and 6 weeks post partum

Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • antiviral activity
  • safety

Enrollment: 40
Study Start Date: August 2005
Study Completion Date: February 2008
Primary Completion Date: January 2008 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)
Detailed Description:

It is generally accepted that HIV-infected pregnant women should receive treatment to prevent the transmission of HIV from mother-to-child.The (relative) contra-indications for the NNRTIs during pregnancy make a PI based regimen the most rational choice. Based on several experiences and investigations it is expected that saquinavir will play a role as a component of tripe drug regimens for HIV-infected pregnant women. Since the bid dose regimen of 1,000mg saquinavir and 100mg ritonavir is approved by the regulatory authorities and with the availability of a new 500mg tablet formulation of saquinavir,there is a need for a well-designed pharmacokinetic trial using the new 500mg saquinavir tablet formulation in the above mentioned dose.
