a

Treatment was with lersivirine at 1,000 mg q.d. plus rifampin at 600 mg q.d. Four subjects did not have samples for PK analysis collected due to discontinuations.

b

Treatment was with lersivirine at 1,000 mg q.d. plus placebo q.d. Three subjects did not have PK samples collected due to discontinuations. n = 13 for adjusted geometric means.

c

Treatment was with lersivirine at 1,000 mg q.d. plus rifabutin at 300 mg q.d. One subject discontinued due to an AE of pyrexia.

d

Treatment was with lersivirine at 1,000 mg q.d. One subject discontinued due to an AE of pyrexia.

e

The adjusted geometric mean was obtained by exponentiation of the mean estimate from the statistical analysis. Natural log-transformed data were analyzed using a mixed-effect model with sequence, period, and treatment as fixed effects and subject within sequence as a random effect.

f

Data represent median (range).
