Description

Since the use of non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors such as U-87201E has been associated with the rapid development of resistant HIV isolates, an initial evaluation of this drug in patients was made in combination with AZT. Because of the inability to detect resistance after 6 weeks of combined AZT/U-87201E therapy, this protocol will initially investigate U-87201E administered alone and then investigate the effect of this drug with AZT and ddI or ddC. Ten patients are treated at each of three targeted concentration ranges of U-87201E. Patients in the second cohort are enrolle...
