P1070: Dose-Finding and Pharmacogenetic Study of Efavirenz in HIV-Infected and HIV/TB Co-Infected Infants and Children ≥ 3 Months to < 36 Months of Age

This study ended March 10, 2015.

This multi-country trial was conducted in India, South Africa, Tanzania, Uganda, Zambia, and Zimbabwe, under the International Maternal Pediatric Adolescent AIDS Clinical Trials (IMPAACT) Network and funded by the U.S. National Institutes of Health.

Efavirenz (EFV) is an anti-HIV medicine that is commonly used to treat HIV infection in adults and children older than 3 years of age. This study is being conducted to look at the safety of EFV, blood levels of EFV, genetic factors that may affect blood levels of EFV, and how easy it is for infants and young children to take and tolerate EFV. This information will help recommend the best doses of EFV for children younger than 3 years of age.
