A Study of Saquinavir/Ritonavir in Liver-Impaired Patients With HIV Infection.

February 28, 2018 updated by: Hoffmann-La Roche

Effect of Moderate Liver Impairment on the Pharmacokinetics of Saquinavir After Administration of Saquinavir/Ritonavir 1000/100mg BID in HIV Patients

This 2 arm study will assess the effect of moderate liver impairment on the pharmacokinetics of saquinavir and ritonavir at steady state following administration of saquinavir/ritonavir 1000mg/100mg po bid in HIV patients. Saquinavir/ritonavir will be administered concomitantly with 2 to 3 active nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors. The study will compare a group of HIV patients without known liver disease and a group with moderate liver disease. The anticipated time on study treatment is <3 months, and the target sample size is <100 individuals.
