OBJECTIVE
The effects of two antiretroviral triple combinations including the protease inhibitor indinavir on the surrogate markers, viral load and CD4 cells were evaluated.
METHODS
Fifteen patients with high viral load or disease progression under their prior antiretroviral therapy were switched to zidovudine/lamivudine/indinavir (Group A, n = 10) or stavudine/lamivudine/indinavir (Group B, n = 5). Serial determinations of viral load and CD4 cells were performed.
RESULTS
The median reduction of the viral load was 0.6 log after 3 months and 0.8 log after 6 months in Group A and 2.5 and 2.4 log after 3 and 6 months in Group B, respectively. After 3 and 6 months 3 of 10 patients in Group A and 3 of 5 patients in Group B had viral load reductions below the detection limit of the assay. Patients with an additional switch of nucleoside analogues at start of indinavir therapy (regardless of the specific reverse transcriptase inhibitor used) had significantly better reductions of the viral load than patients without such a switch (median 2.3 log vs. 0.2 log after 6 months, P < 0.05). In Group A the median of the relative increase of CD4 cells was 37% after 3 months and 57% after 6 months (P = 0.002); in Group B the medians of the relative increase of CD4 cells were 145 and 163% (not significant), respectively. Two patients from Group A and 1 from Group B developed renal calculi, which resolved after adequate hydration. One patient was withdrawn because of intractable vomiting attributed to indinavir.
CONCLUSION
In a small cohort of HIV-infected pediatric patients with extensive prior antiretroviral treatment, triple therapy including indinavir had a sustained effect on the decrease of the viral load and the increase of CD4 cells similar to results obtained in antiretrovirally experienced adults. This effect was significantly better in patients with an additional switch of a nucleoside analogue at start of triple therapy with indinavir than in patients without such a change.
