WOCBP must have a negative serum or urine pregnancy test (minimum sensitivity 25 IU/L or equivalent units of HCG) within 24 hours prior to the start of investigational product. |

E.5 End points |
E.5.1 | Primary end point(s) |
Safety endpoints: Safety assessments will be based on adverse event reports and the results of vital sign measurements, ECGs, physical examinations, and clinical laboratory tests. The incidence of adverse events will be tabulated and reviewed for potential significance and clinical importance.
Pharmacokinetic endpoints: Pharmacokinetics of BMS-626529 will be derived from plasma concentration versus time data. The pharmacokinetic parameters to be assessed include:
Cmax Maximum observed plasma concentration Ctrough Trough observed plasma concentration Tmax Time of maximum observed plasma concentration AUC(TAU) Area under the concentration-time curve in one dosing interval AUC(0-24h) Area under the concentration-time curve over a 24-hour period following the AM dose (PM for Group 2) on Day 8 Css,avg Average steady-state plasma concentration, calculated as AUC(0-24h)/24 T-HALF Terminal half-life (after last dose only) CLT/F Apparent total body clearance Vss/F Apparent volume of distribution at steady-state AI Accumulation index; ratio of AUC(TAU) at steady-state to AUC(TAU) after the first dose Protein binding (%) Percent of BMS-626529 that are bound to total plasma proteins IQ Inhibitory quotient, calculated as the ratio of BMS-626529 in vivo exposure to in vitro measured protein biding adjusted EC90. The following in vivo exposure measures will be used in evaluating IQ: Cmax, Ctrough and Css,avg.
Individual subject pharmacokinetic parameter values will be derived by non compartmental methods by a validated pharmacokinetic analysis program.
Pharmacodynamic Endpoint(s): Pharmacodynamic assessment will be based on change in HIV RNA. Additionally, CD4+ and CD8+ lymphocyte counts and percents will be assessed. |
