ClinConnect Summary

This is an open-label, non-randomized study. All patients will be treated with 1592U89. Additionally, since optimal therapy usually includes the combined use of 2 or more antiretroviral agents in advanced patients, other novel antiretroviral therapies may be accessed through commercial means or via compassionate use programs. NOTE: 1592U89 should not be administered as a single new agent added to a failing treatment regimen.
