Changes to AIDS dementia complex in the era of highly active antiretroviral therapy

TL;DR: A proportional increase in ADC compared with other ADIs and a marked increase in the median CD4 cell count at ADC diagnosis have occurred since the introduction of HAART in Australia, suggesting that HAART has a lesser impact on ADC than on otherADIs, with the poor CNS penetration of many antiretroviral agents a possible explanation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Antiretroviral activity, pharmacokinetics, and tolerability of MK-0518, a novel inhibitor of HIV-1 integrase, dosed as monotherapy for 10 days in treatment-naive HIV-1-infected individuals.

TL;DR: MK-0518 showed potent antiretroviral activity as short-term monotherapy and was generally well tolerated at all doses, and part 2 of the study, a dose-ranging 48-week trial of MK-05 18 versus efavirenz in a combination regimen, has been initiated.
