Brief Summary

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • A subject must be at least 18 years of age at the time of study entry, of either sex, and of any race.
  • A subject must be infected with HIV-1 virus, as documented by a positive assay for HIV-1 RNA in plasma, prior to Screening.
  • A subject's HIV isolate must be solely CCR5-tropic at Screening (ie, a subject must not have detectable CXCR4-tropic or dual/mixed CCR5/CXCR4-tropic HIV isolates).
  • Subjects must be failing their current antiretroviral regimen with plasma HIV RNA \>=1000 copies/mL at the time of screening. (Note: The failing background regimen must contain a ritonavir-boosted PI, and may not include an NNRTI.)
  • A subject must be willing to undergo study procedures including lumbar punctures, and to adhere to the chosen antiretroviral regimen.
  • A subject must have a pretreatment CSF HIV RNA of \>=200 copies/mL.

Exclusion

  • A subject must not be taking medication for seizure control or have any condition that, in the judgment of the investigator, is likely to increase the risk of seizures.
  • A subject must not have a prior history of malignancy (with the exception of surgically resected basal cell carcinoma with clear margins or Kaposi's sarcoma without visceral or mucosal involvement that resolved without systemic anticancer treatment).
  • A subject must not have a contraindication to lumbar puncture (eg, bleeding diathesis or use of anticoagulants).
