Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the influence of nevirapine in exposure to atazanavir boosted with ritonavir in steady state equilibrium in HIV-infected adult patients
Detailed Description: In recent years new treatment strategies have appeared aimed at reducing the risk of treatment-derived toxicity without compromising efficacy

Of the recent antiretroviral drugs atazanavir is a protease inhibitor PI whose pharmacokinetic profile allows it to be given in a single daily take with a scant impact on lipid metabolism This second characteristic makes atazanavir a good alternative for patients with a high vascular risk However one of its drawbacks is that it may present clinically relevant interactions with other drugs

Another antiretroviral agent with a scant impact on lipid metabolism is nevirapine Different studies have described an improvement in lipid profile as well as a less atherogenic tendency in patients treated with nevirapine Moreover the combination of nevirapine with PI drugs in the context of nucleoside-sparing strategies may permit a suitable control of viral replication and an improvement in the mitochondrial toxicity derived from treatment with NTRI which may possibly result in a minor incidence or in a clinical improvement of lipodystrophy

The combination of atazanavir with nevirapine may be of major interest in HIV-infected patients that have had a cardiovascular event secondary prevention or are at a high risk of having one primary prevention Similarly this combination of drugs may be promising as a nucleoside-sparing strategy However according to preliminary data the joint administration of nevirapine with atazanavir may lead to a reduction in the atazanavir plasma concentration Thus before evaluating the clinical utility of this combination of drugs pharmacokinetic studies evaluating the existence of significant pharmacokinetic interactions between both are necessary
