Initial Phase II Efficacy and Safety Study of SC-48334 Administered in Combination With Low-Dose Zidovudine (AZT) to Symptomatic HIV-1 Infected Patients With = or > 200 to = or < 500 CD4+ Cells/mm3

June 23, 2005 updated by: G D Searle

The primary objective of this study is to determine the preliminary efficacy and tolerability of combining a selected dose of SC-48334 with low-dose AZT in the treatment of symptomatic HIV+ patients with 200 to 500 CD4+ cells/mm3.

The secondary objective is to determine the pharmacokinetics and bioavailability of both SC-48334 and AZT, when administered together, in symptomatic HIV+ patients with 200 - 500 CD4+ cells/mm3.
