Participant Flow

There were 280 patients enrolled but two patients were lost to follow up before the second visit (2 weeks). For these two patients no information about Nevirapine intake could be assessed. So they were not included in the treated set which was used for most of the analyses.

This was an observational, non-interventional, uncontrolled, prospective post marketing study.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 48 weeks

Population: TS

VR was defined as Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) viral load of \<50 copies/mL before week 48 and without any subsequent rebound or change of Antiretroviral (ARV) therapy. A rebound was defined by two consecutive measurements of Viral load (VL) \>= 50 copies/mL, at least two weeks apart, after two consecutive measurements of VL \< 50 copies/mL. A change of ARV therapy was defined as a permanent discontinuation of Nevirapine.
