Brief summary
The objective of this study is to determine efficacy of ritonavir-boosted lopinavir monotherapy as a maintenance regimen in HIV-1-infected patients who previously failed Non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTI) based regimens and currently received salvage protease-inhibitor (PI) based regimens.
Interventions
Lopinavir/ritonavir 200/50 mg every 12 hours
Optimized background regimens such as NRTIs, etravirine or raltegravir

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Time to virological failure | 48 weeks | virological failure was defined as having two consecutive results of HIV-1 RNA \>400 copies/ml in time separated by 4 weeks |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Proportion of patients with virological suppression | 48 weeks | virological suppression defined as having HIV-1 RNA \<40 copies/ml |
| Proportion of patients with virological failure | 48 week | virological failure was defined as having two consecutive results of HIV-1 RNA \>400 copies/ml in time separated by 4 weeks |
| Time to loss of virological response (TLOVR) | 48 weeks | TLOVR was defined as time between randomization and the last value that HIV-1 RNA \<40 copies/ml in a patient who initially suppressed HIV-1 RNA but subsequently demonstrated virologic rebound (two consecutive HIV-1 RNA \>40 copies/ml) |
| Change of CD4 cells count | 48 weeks | Change of CD4 cells count from start of study to Week 48 |
| Adverse events | 48 weeks | any grade 3 or grade 4 adverse events according to DAIDS AE grading table |
