BID Dosing study.
Reported at last week's meeting in Miami:
Treatment naive patients, Baseline HIV RNA:194,814 (mean)
Combo with d4T, and 3TC, Viracept 1250 mg BID
At 16 weeks:
Mean reduction of HIV RNA:-2.73 log
Patients with HIV under 400 copies (by PCR): 9/9 (100%)
Mean increase in CD4:+59 cells

Note that Zerit was used. Papers will be presented in Jan, at the antiretroviral meeting re: AZT not a good choice for initial therapy because of resistance pattern, ie:genotypic changes.
Looks that BID Dosing will be comming fast.
