Lopinavir Monotherapy: High Risk for Viral Relapse in the Central Nervous System
Switching to lopinavir/ritonavir monotherapy was associated with a high failure rate and with elevated viral loads in the cerebrospinal fluid.
Combination antiretroviral therapy has substantially reduced HIV morbidity and mortality, but the adverse effects and cost of multiple drugs remain a concern, prompting interest in treatment simplification. Because of its high resistance barrier, boosted lopinavir has been considered an attractive option for simplified maintenance therapy
In this open-label trial, researchers randomized 60 patients who had viral loads <50 copies/mL for at least 3 months to either continue their triple-drug therapy or switch to lopinavir/r monotherapy. The primary endpoint was treatment failure in the central nervous system (CNS) and/or genital tract.
