Study summary

This study evaluated the safety and tolerability of tipranavir to improve treatment options for HIV type 1-infected patients who have been previously treated and whose treatment is no longer effective.

Read the detailed description

The purpose of this open label study is to assess the safety and tolerability of tipranavir co-administered with low-dose ritonavir (500 mg tipranavir/200 mg ritonavir BID) in HIV-1 infected patients who are triple antiretroviral class experienced with at least two previous PI-containing regimens.

The safety assessment will be performed by evaluating:

  • The frequency of treatment-emergent adverse events (AEs) , all serious adverse events (SAEs), and additional safety laboratory parameters.
  • The occurrence of PI class-specific AEs, such as hemorrhage, dyslipidemia, hepatic events, hyperglycemia, pancreatitis, and rash.

The efficacy assessment will be performed by evaluating:

  • The quantity of HIV-1 RNA
  • The CD4 cell count.

Study Hypothesis:

The purpose of this open label study is to assess the safety and tolerability of tipranavir co-administered with low-dose ritonavir (500 mg tipranavir/200 mg ritonavir BID) in HIV-1 infected patients who are triple antiretroviral class experienced with at least two previous PI-containing regimens.

The record gives a start of May 2004, a primary completion of Apr 2006 and a completion of Apr 2006. It does not say whether these dates are actual or estimated.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Nov 5, 2013, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
