Table 2. Primary Endpoints Through 52 Weeks Post-Randomization Among 99 Children Retained on a Ritonavir-Boosted Lopinavir-Based Regimen (Control Group) and 96 Children Switched to a Nevirapine-Based Regimen (Switch Group).
Control group | Switch group | p-value | |
---|---|---|---|
N | 99 | 96 | |
Probability of lost to follow-up by 52 weeks | 0.031 | 0.053 | 0.46 |
(95% CI) | (0.008 – 0.080) | (0.020 – 0.110) | |
N lost to follow-up before 52 weeks | 3 | 5 | |
Probability of mortality by 52 weeks | 0.020 | 0.021 | 0.97 |
(95% CI) | (0.004 – 0.065) | (0.004 – 0.068) | |
N died | 2 | 2 | |
Probability of HIV-1 RNA > 50 copies/ml* | 0.576 | 0.438 | 0.02 |
(95% CI) | (0.470 – 0.668) | (0.334 – 0.537) | |
N with > one measurement >50 copies/ml | 55 | 40 |
Three children (2 in the control and 1 in the switch group) were missing virologic data and were excluded. Virologic data through 52 weeks post-randomization or up to the time of death or censoring were included. Probabilities are calculated using Kaplan-Meier methods and are compared across group using log-rank tests.
