April 26, 2006 updated by: Zeria Pharmaceutical

A Phase 1b Multicenter Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Randomized Study on the Safety and Tolerability of Z-100 in Early HIV-1 Infected Patients

The purpose of the study is to see if Z-100 (an investigational drug) treatment is safe in HIV patients who have never received treatment for their HIV, who have not been taking highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) for at least 8 weeks, or who have been stable on their current first or second HAART regimen for at least 12 weeks.
