a

Group A patients received APV without ritonavir, whereas group B patients received ritonavir at 100 mg b.i.d.

b

IDV, indinavir; NFV, nelfinavir; RTV, ritonavir; SQV, saquinavir; APV, amprenavir; AZT, zidovudine; ddI, didanosine; ddC, zalcitabine, 3TC, lamivudine; d4T, stavudine; ABC, abacavir; HU, hydroxyurea; EFV, efavirenz; NVP, nevirapine.

c

For protease, all amino acid differences relative to the HIV-1 clade B consensus sequence are listed. Major genotypic APV resistance mutations are M46I, M46L, I54L, I54M, I54V, V82A, V82F, V82I, V82T, I84V, and L90M and are shown in boldface. Viruses with more than three major mutations at different codons were considered resistant to APV. For reverse transcriptase, only those differences associated with resistance to NNRTI and S69S insertions are listed.

d

Fold resistance compared to that for reference strain NL4-3. An IC90c greater than four times that for NL4-3 (480 ng/ml) was considered resistance and is shown in boldface.

e

The IC90c was determined by recombinant virus assay and is the IC90 corrected for protein binding by multiplication by 7.

f

The mean Cmin was calculated by using the values at steady state (those on days 14, 21, 30) over the first month of treatment.

g

The inhibitory quotient was calculated as the mean Cmin divided by the IC90c.
