Multivariate analysis of factors related to toxicity drug modifications.

Months of follow up
0 to 3 3 to 36
p-value HR (95% CI)
Gender 0.002 0.870
 Female vs. Male 2.42 (1.39–4.24) 1.05 (0.59–1.88)
Age, per 10-year increase <0.001 0.188
 Age 1.42 (1.16–1.74) 1.13 (0.94–1.36)
Nucleoside backbone 0.69
 ABC3TC vs. D4T3TC 0.56 (0.16–1.97) 0.23 (0.08–0.68)*
 ZDV3TC vs. D4T3TC 1.06 (0.58–1.95) 0.38 (0.20–0.72)*
 Other/none vs. D4T3TC 0.66 (0.21–2.11) 1.24 (0.49–3.10)*
Type of CART 0.061
 2NRT + 1PI vs. 2NRT + 1NNRT 0.60 (0.33–1.12) 1.49 (0.99–2.26)**
 Other vs. 2NRT+ 1NNRT 2.89 (0.77–10.81) 3.41 (0.95–12.28)**

Adjusted for time sequence and in the 3 to 36 months follow-up model also for the CD4 cell count (not significant) and distance from HIV center (not significant). HR – hazard ratio; CI – confidence interval; ABC – abacavir; 3TC – lamivudine; D4T – stavudine; ZDV – zidovudine; NRT – nucleoside reverse-transcriptase inhibitor; NNRT – nonnucleoside reverse-transcriptase inhibitor; PI – protease inhibitor.

*

At month 6; p=0.008 for the comparison ABC3TC vs. D4T3TC, p=0.003 for the comparison ZDV3TC vs. D4T3TC, p=0.648 for the comparison other/none vs. D4T3TC.

**

at month 15; p=0.06 for the comparison 2NRT+1PI vs. 2NRT+ 1NNRT, p=0.06 for the comparison other vs. 2NRT+1NNRT.
