A Study of 1592U89 in HIV-Infected Patients

June 23, 2005 updated by: Glaxo Wellcome

A Study to Evaluate the Single-Dose and Steady-State Pharmacokinetics/Dynamics of 1592U89 and Its Active Moiety, 1144U88 5'-Triphosphate (1144U88-TP) Following Six Different Dosing Regimens of 1592U89 in HIV-1 Infected Subjects

The purpose of this study is to see if it is safe to give 1592U89 to HIV-infected patients. This study also examines the effect 1592U89 has on plasma viral load (the level of HIV in the blood).
