A Phase III Open-Label, Randomized, Active-Controlled Study Assessing the Efficacy and Safety of T-20 (HIV-1 Fusion Inhibitor) in Combination With an Optimized Background Regimen, Versus Optimized Background Therapy Alone, in Patients With Prior Experience and/or Prior Documented Resistance to Each of the Three Classes of Approved Antiretrovirals (Nucleoside Reverse Transcriptase, Non-Nucleoside Reverse Transcriptase and Protease Inhibitors)

Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to compare the change in viral load (amount of HIV in the blood)
of patients who receive T-20 with selected anti-HIV drugs to that of patients who receive
only selected anti-HIV drugs.
Detailed Description
Eligible patients remain on their pre-study regimen until baseline. An OB regimen is chosen
by the physician and patient based on the patient's prior treatment history, prior and
current laboratory abnormalities, the screening GT/PT antiretroviral resistance testing, and
any prior GT/PT antiretroviral resistance (if available). The drugs in the OB regimen are
chosen from among the currently approved antiretrovirals and permitted newly
approved/investigational antiretrovirals available in the countries where the study is
implemented, and must consist of 3 to 5 drugs, including no more than 1 newly
approved/investigational agent. Patients are stratified with respect to viral load and use
(versus non-use) of any of the allowed newly approved/investigational antiretrovirals.
Patients are randomized to receive 1 of the following 2 treatments for 48 weeks: OB or OB
plus T-20. Patients are followed to assess viral load, safety, antiretroviral resistance,
T-20 pharmacokinetics, and quality of life. At the end of 48 weeks of treatment patients are
allowed to (a) roll over and receive OB plus T-20 (for patients receiving OB regimen alone)
or (b) continue taking OB plus T-20 (for patients already receiving OB plus T-20), for an
additional 48 weeks (plus 4 weeks safety follow-up period), or until 12 weeks after
commercial availability of T-20 in the country in which they are treated, whichever comes
first. All patients are followed in this study for a maximum of 100 weeks from their initial
baseline visit date.

Conditions
Conditions usually refer to a disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury. In ClinicalTrials.gov,
conditions include any health issue worth studying, such as lifespan, quality of life, health risks, etc.
Interventions
Interventions refer to the drug, vaccine, procedure, device, or other potential treatment being studied.
Interventions can also include less intrusive possibilities such as surveys, education, and interviews.
Study Phase
Most clinical trials are designated as phase 1, 2, 3, or 4, based on the type of questions
that study is seeking to answer:
In Phase 1 (Phase I) clinical trials, researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people (20-80) for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
In Phase 2 (Phase II) clinical trials, the study drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people (100-300) to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
In Phase 3 (Phase III) clinical trials, the study drug or treatment is given to large groups of people (1,000-3,000) to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
In Phase 4 (Phase IV) clinical trials, post marketing studies delineate additional information including the drug's risks, benefits, and optimal use.
These phases are defined by the Food and Drug Administration in the Code of Federal Regulations.
