Safety and Pharmacokinetic Study of Fixed Dose Combination of Zidovudine, Lamivudine, and Nevirapine in HIV-Infected Children in Thailand

Summary

In 2005, there were 50,620 HIV-infected children living in Thailand. Current anti-HIV regimens, comprised of individual pills for each drug, frequently lead to missed doses. To properly control their infection, regimens that are tolerable and effective in children and without pill burden are necessary. The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and bioavailability of GPO-VIR Z30, a combination fixed dose tablet containing zidovudine (ZDV), lamivudine (3TC), and nevirapine (NVP), in HIV-infected children in Thailand.
