摘要
Triple combination is currently the fundamental concept for HIV therapy. We evaluated the feasibility of a 48-week maintenance therapy with ritonavir-boosted indinavir in 12 HIV-infected patients. All patients maintained viral suppression (< 50 copies/ml) throughout the study (one drop-out after week 32) and opted to continue on this monotherapy thereafter. At week 48, no changes in fat distribution patterns were detectable using a dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry scan. These results support the further evaluation of mono-maintenance trials.
