Clinical Trial Assessing Once Daily Raltegravir Administration (800 mg QD) in HIV-1-Infected Patients Receiving Unboosted Atazanavir (400 mg QD)- Based Antiretroviral Therapy

Summary

The co-administration of raltegravir with medicinal products that are knouwn to be potent UGT1A1 inhibitors, such as atazanavir, may increase plasma levels of raltegravir. So once daily raltegravir (800 mg QD), instead of twice a day (400 mg BID), could be an appropriate therapeutic option in HIV-infected patients also receiving atazanavir-containing antiretroviral regimens. In this study, pharmacokinetic data supporting this hypothesis are recovered.
