NCT00017758
The purpose of this study is to find out whether certain anti-HIV drugs (efavirenz \[EFV\] and nelfinavir \[NFV\]) affect the amount of certain fat-lowering drugs (atorvastatin, pravastatin, and simvastatin) in the blood. Protease inhibitors (PIs), a type of anti-HIV drug, are known to cause increased lipids (fats) in the blood of HIV-infected patients. EFV also is known to increase blood fats. HIV-infected patients who take PIs and/or EFV may need to take fat-lowering drugs to correct this problem. So it is important to look at possible drug interactions when these drugs are taken together. This study will see if taking EFV or NFV, a protease inhibitor, affects the blood level of simvastatin, atorvastatin, or pravastatin (all fat-lowering drugs). To obtain results more quickly, the study population will be healthy HIV-negative volunteers.
NCT00023348
Primary Objectives: 1\) To determine the proportion of patients with HIV-related tuberculosis who have abnormal pharmacokinetic parameters for isoniazid and rifabutin. Secondary Objectives: 1. To determine risk factors for abnormal pharmacokinetic parameters for isoniazid and rifabutin. 2. To evaluate the correlation between pharmacokinetic parameters of isoniazid and rifabutin and the occurrence of toxicity attributed to antituberculous therapy. 3. To evaluate the correlation between pharmacokinetic parameters of isoniazid and rifabutin and the efficacy of TB therapy. 4. To define and correlate phenotypic INH acetylator status with the results of genotypic acetylator data obtained in the parent trial.
