Measure
Cyclosporine
The Cyclosporine arm (Arm A) will receive one tablet of abacavir sulfate (ABC), lamivudine (3TC), and zidovudine (AZT), (ABC/3TC/AZT) twice daily, 3 capsules or 2 tablets of lopinavir/ritonavir (LPV/r) twice daily, and liquid cyclosporin A (CsA) (dose determined by weight) twice daily. At Week 5, Arm A patients will stop CsA but continue both ABC/3TC/AZT and LPV/r. Abacavir sulfate, Lamivudine, and Zidovudine: antiretroviral therapy Lopinavir/Ritonavir: antiretroviral therapy
No Cyclosporine
The No Cyclosporine arm (Arm B) will receive one tablet of ABC/3TC/AZT twice daily and 3 capsules or 2 tablets of LPV/r twice daily for all 48 weeks Abacavir sulfate, Lamivudine, and Zidovudine: antiretroviral therapy Lopinavir/Ritonavir: antiretroviral therapy
