Serious adverse events

Serious adverse events
Measure
Truvada
n=47 participants at risk
Truvada + NNRTI or PI. The number of participants at risk is the number who started the study by switching to Truvada. Participants in this group were to remain on Truvada for 48 weeks (duration of the study). The number at risk was reduced only by study discontinuation (from 47 at baseline to 40 who completed Study Phase 2).
Maintain Baseline Regimen
n=45 participants at risk
Maintain baseline regimen. The number of participants at risk is the number who started the study by maintaining their baseline regimen. Per protocol, participants in this group were allowed to switch to Truvada after Week 12 (Delayed TVD group), therefore the number of participants at risk declines over time (from 45 at baseline to 17 who completed Study Phase 2; with most participants switching to Truvada at Week 12).
All Truvada
n=72 participants at risk
Truvada + NNRTI or PI (all participants who received Truvada during the study, i.e., participants in the Truvada and Delayed Truvada groups). The number of participants at risk is the number who started the study by switching to Truvada (Truvada group), plus those who started the study by maintaining their baseline regimen but who switched to Truvada during the study (Delayed Truvada group). The number of participants at risk increases over time (from 47 at baseline to 72 when the last switch to Truvada took place; 25 participants switched to Truvada from the "maintain baseline regimen" group in Study Phase 2).
