Brief summary

The primary objective is to establish the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile at steady state of nevirapine XR in HIV infected children from \>=3 to \<18 years of age. This phase I trial is an open-label, multiple dose, non-randomized and cross-over study. Patients who have completed the last visit of the PK trial (visit 7) can enter into an Optional Extension Phase (OEP) until the Investigational New Drug (IND) is withdrawn; until nevirapine XR becomes approved and is available by prescription in a given country; or, the patient enrolls in a compassionate use program. During this OEP, nevirapine XR safety and efficacy information will be collected.

Ratio Cmax,ss/Cmin,ss

Ratio of (maximum measured concentration of the Nevirapine in plasma at steady state over the time dosing interval τ)/(minimum measured concentration of the analyte in plasma at steady state over the time dosing interval τ) Patients took Nevirapine (NVP) Immediate Release (IR) up to day 10 and had PK measurements taken on Day 11. This was followed by 9 days (from day 12 to day 20) taking NVP Extended Release (XR) with PK measurements taken on Day 22.

Time frame: Day 11 prior to the next scheduled dose of Nevirapine IR and day 22 prior to the next scheduled dose of Nevirapine XR

Population: Intensive PK analysis set (IPK): This patient set includes all patients in the PK set that underwent intensive PK sampling.

Tmax,ss

Time from dosing to the maximum concentration of the Nevirapine in plasma at steady state over the time dosing interval τ Patients took Nevirapine (NVP) Immediate Release (IR) up to day 10 and had PK measurements taken on Day 11. This was followed by 9 days (from day 12 to day 20) taking NVP Extended Release (XR) with PK measurements taken on Day 22. The standard deviation is actually the coefficient of variation.

Time frame: Day 11 prior to the next scheduled dose of Nevirapine IR and day 22 prior to the next scheduled dose of Nevirapine XR

Population: Intensive PK analysis set (IPK): This patient set includes all patients in the PK set that underwent intensive PK sampling.
