Brief Summary

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

To compare tenofovir DF plus lamivudine plus efavirenz vs. stavudine plus lamivudine plus efavirenz in the treatment of HIV-1-infected patients who have never taken antiretroviral drugs and have a viral load of less than 400 copies/mL at week 48.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

To compare the two treatment groups with the goal of achieving HIV-1 RNA levels less than 50 copies/mL at week 48.

To compare the safety, efficacy and tolerability of the two treatment regimens through 144 weeks of drug exposure.

To evaluate the long-term efficacy, safety and tolerability of tenofovir DF in combination with lamivudine and efavirenz through approximately 336 weeks of drug exposure.

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* Completed the original 96-weeks of open-label treatment. Willingness to use effective contraception by both males and females while on study treatment and for 30 days following study drugs completion. The ability to understand and sign a written informed consent form, which must be obtained prior to initiation of any study procedures related to the second 96-week open-label phase extension.

Exclusion Criteria

* Patients requiring therapy with any of the following: Nephrotoxic agents (aminoglycoside antibiotics, IV amphotericin B, cidofovir, cisplatin, foscarnet, IV pentamidine, oral and IV vancomycin, oral and IV ganciclovir, other agents with significant nephrotoxic potential);Probenecid; Systemic chemotherapeutic agents; Systemic corticosteroids; Interleukin-2 (IL-2); Investigational agents (except on approval by Gilead Sciences); Drugs that interact with efavirenz (astemizole, terfenadine, dihydroergotamine, ergotamine, midazolam, triazolam, cisapride, rifampin, ergonovine, methylergonovine, voriconazole). Administration of any of the listed medications is not allowed throughout the duration of the study period.
* Pregnant or lactating patients.
* Evidence of a gastrointestinal malabsorption syndrome or chronic nausea or vomiting which may confer an inability to receive an orally administered medication.
* Current alcohol or substance abuse judged by the investigator to potentially interfere with patient compliance.
* Malignancy other than cutaneous Kaposi's sarcoma (KS) or basal cell carcinoma. Patients with biopsy-confirmed cutaneous KS are eligible, if they are not anticipated to require systemic therapy during the study.
* Active, serious infections(other than HIV-1 infection) requiring parenteral antibiotic therapy.
* Any other clinical condition or prior therapy that, in the opinion of the investigator, would make the patient unsuitable for the study or unable to comply with the dosing requirements.
