A Study to Determine the Antiviral Activity of TMC310911 When Administered With Ritonavir in Treatment-Naive Human Immunodeficiency Virus - Type 1 (HIV-1) Infected Patients

This is an open-label (all people know the identity of the intervention) and randomized (study medication assigned by chance) study in treatment-naive human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1)-infected participants (participants who had not been treated with a therapeutic HIV vaccine within 1 year prior to enrollment and who had never been treated with an antiretroviral \[ARV\] medication indicated for the treatment of HIV-infection or ARVs for treatment of hepatitis B infection with anti-HIV activity prior to screening). In this study approximately 32 participants will be enrolled and randomly assigned to receive 4 different dose regimens co-administered with ritonavir (8 participants in each dosing regimen). The trial will consist of a screening period (maximum 6 weeks), a treatment period with TMC310911 (2 weeks), and a follow-up period (4 weeks). Safety evaluation will include assessment of adverse events, clinical laboratory tests, vital sign measurements, physical examinations and electrocardiograms.
