Efficacy of Simplified Two Drug Kaletra Regimen vs. Kaletra Triple Drug Standard of Care Regimen in Treatment naïve HIV Infected Patients (KALEAD)

July 9, 2008 updated by: Abbott

A Phase III, Open Label, Randomized, Comparative Study of the Antiviral Efficacy of ARV Therapy With Lopinavir/Ritonavir (LPV/r-Kaletra) in Combination With Tenofovir (TDF) Versus Standard of Care (Kaletra in Combination With 2 Nucleoside RTIs) in naïve-HIV-1 Positive Patients

The purpose of this study is to obtain a preliminary assessment of the antiviral activity and tolerability of simplified Kaletra dual agent therapy as initial treatment for HIV infection, relative to a Kaletra three drug standard of care reference arm.
