Combination therapy with saquinavir soft gelatin capsules in children with human immunodeficiency virus infection

Abstract

Combination therapy with SQV-SGC was well-tolerated and safe in HIV-infected children, and antiviral activity was observed. Saquinavir plasma concentrations were lower than expected, particularly for Part 1 (SQV-SGC plus NRTIs), but addition of nelfinavir increased saquinavir exposures.
