In Brief
A Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating Raltegravir for HIV Infections and Tuberculosis. Completed, enrolled 40 participants across 4 sites.
Detailed Summary
People who are infected with HIV and tuberculosis (TB) need to receive medications that treat both diseases safely and effectively. This study enrolled infants and children infected with HIV and TB and evaluated the safety and tolerance of an antiretroviral (ARV) treatment regimen for HIV that contains raltegravir when administered with a TB treatment regimen that includes rifampicin. Study researchers aimed to determine the most effective dose of raltegravir for infants and children when taken with rifampicin.
