Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study will compare a nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor-sparing (NRTI-sparing) regimen (Kaletra + nevirapine) to two nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor-based regimens (Combivir + nevirapine and Combivir + Kaletra).

Participants will be randomly assigned to receive one of the following drug combinations:

* lopinavir/ritonavir (Kaletra) and nevirapine (Viramune) twice a day;
* Combivir (Zidovudine (AZT) plus lamivudine (3TC)) and nevirapine twice a day;
* Combivir and lopinavir/ritonavir twice a day.
