HIV Infections
Conditions
Brief summary
The aim of this trial is to evaluate the safety and virological and immunological efficacy of Aptivus in treatment-experienced patients with advanced HIV-1 infection who had developed resistance to more than one protease inhibitor.

Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
1. HIV-1 infected patients who are treatment experienced and infected with HIV-1 strains resistant to more than one protease inhibitor and no other therapeutic options. 2. The inclusion criteria follow the same criteria which are describe in the newest SPC

| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Virologic Response | 48 weeks | Virologic response is defined as HIV viral load of \< 50 copies/mL before week 48 and without subsequent rebound or change of ARV therapy prior to week 48. A rebound is defined by two consecutive measurements of VL \>= 50 copies/ml, at least two weeks apart, after two consecutive measurements of VL\< 50 copies/ml. Because of many missing data concerning the viral load, the virologic response could be determined only for four patients. |
