Safety and Effectiveness of Four Anti-HIV Drug Combinations in HIV-Infected Children and Teens

Summary

The purpose of this study is to see if it is safe and effective to give HIV-infected children and teens 1 of 4 anti-HIV drug combinations. Decreasing HIV levels in infected patients can slow down disease progression. Further study is needed to find out which drug combinations are most effective in doing this.
