From: Henry Niman   of 6136
 
Dr. Henry reported that 4 of 7 patients (not naive) treated with Viracept failed treatment with a second PI and their baseline viral load at the time of the switch was higher than that reported in the LB-5 paper (263,027 in AGPH study; 99,600 in LB-5 paper).
(from AGPH press release):
"Dr. Henry will also report that viral load
fell below 500 copies/mL in three of seven patients in a second group of extensively pre-treated
patients (all of those tested were resistant to 3TC) from another VIRACEPT clinical trial who were
switched to the regimen containing ritonavir, saquinavir, d4T and 3TC. At baseline, the mean viral
load in these seven patients was 263,027; mean CD4+ T cell count was 65.(3) "
