| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: To assess the potential of using 24 week induction with enfuvirtide and optimised background anti-HIV therapy to produce a significant and sustained increase in CD4+ count in heavily drug experienced HIV infected patients at switch of therapy. ;Secondary Objective: Secondary: To assess the kinetics of VL, CD4, metabolic markers, progression to AIDS/death and toxicity and adverse events ;Primary end point(s): Primary negative endpoint of virological failure and positive end point of significant and sustained increase in CD4+ count and decrease in viral load;Main Objective: To assess the potential of using 24 week induction with enfuvirtide and optimised background anti-HIV therapy to produce a significant and sustained increase in CD4+ count in heavily drug experienced HIV infected patients at switch of therapy. ;Secondary Objective: Secondary: To assess the kinetics of VL, CD4, metabolic markers, progression to AIDS/death and toxicity and adverse events ;Primary end point(s): Primary negative endpoint of virological failure and positive end point of significant and sustained increase in CD4+ count and decrease in viral load | — |
