Description

Data suggest that bisheteroarylpiperazines (BHAPs) such as delavirdine mesylate are potent and safe anti-HIV agents and may have different biological behavior than other currently available non-nucleoside RT inhibitors. Patients are randomized to receive U-90152 at one of three doses (treatment arms I through III) or either AZT or ddI (treatment arm IV). Patients on arm IV who are AZT-naive receive AZT; those who are AZT-experienced receive ddI. Treatment continues for 24 weeks. PER 12/22/94 AMENDMENT: All patients receiving U-90152 have the same starting dose, to attain one of three targ...
