Primary Outcome Measures

Area Under the Plasma Concentration-Time Curve From Time of Administration to 12 Hours After Dosing (AUC 0-12h) of Saquinavir (SQV) and Ritonavir (RTV)
Area Under the Plasma Concentration-Time Curve (AUC) is a measure of the plasma concentration of the drug over time. It is used to characterize drug absorption. The pharmacokinetic profile for following 14 days of administration with SQV/RTV 1000/100 mg BID included determining the area under the plasma concentration-time curve from 0 to 12 hours after dosing (AUC (0-12h) of SQV and RTV The AUC (0-12hours) was analyzed for SQV and RTV by non-compartmental methods, using WinNonlin.
Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of SQV and RTV
The plasma concentration (Cmax) is defined as maximum observed analyte concentration. The pharmacokinetic profile for following 14 days of administration with SQV/RTV 1000/100 mg BID included determining the maximum observed plasma concentration (C max) of SQV and Ritonavir RTV The Cmax was analyzed for SQV and RTV by non-compartmental methods, using WinNonlin.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Time of Maximum Plasma Concentration (Tmax) of SQV and RTV
The Tmax is defined as actual sampling time to reach maximum observed analyte concentration. The Pharmacokinetic profile for following 14 days of administration with SQV/RTV 1000/100 mg BID included determining the time of maximum plasma concentration of SQV and RTV. The Tmax was analyzed for SQV and RTV by non-compartmental methods, using WinNonlin.
Terminal Half-life (T1/2) of SQV and RTV
Terminal half-life is the time measured for the plasma concentration to decrease by one half. The Pharmacokinetic profile for following 14 days of administration with SQV/RTV 1000/100 mg BID included determining the terminal half-life (T1/2) of SQV and RTV. The T1/2 was analyzed for SQV and RTV by non-compartmental methods, using WinNonlin.
Minimum Observed Plasma Concentration (Cmin) of SQV and RTV
Cmin is the minimum blood plasma concentration that a drug achieves. The Pharmacokinetic profile for following 14 days of administration with SQV/RTV 1000/100 mg BID included determining the minimum observed plasma concentration (C min) of SQV and RTV The Cmin was analyzed for SQV and RTV by non-compartmental methods, using WinNonlin.
Plasma Clearance After Oral Administration (CL/F) of SQV and RTV
The CL/F is the oral clearance; that is clearance based on oral bioavailability. The Pharmacokinetic profile for following 14 days of administration with SQV/RTV 1000/100 mg BID included determining the plasma clearance after oral administration (CL/F)of SQV and RTV The CL/F was analyzed for SQV and RTV by non-compartmental methods, using WinNonlin.
Volume of Distribution (Vd) of SQV and RTV
Vd is defined as the theoretical volume in which the total amount of drug would need to be uniformly distributed to produce the desired blood concentration of a drug. The pharmacokinetic profile for following 14 days of administration with SQV/RTV 1000/100 mg BID included determining the Vd of SQV and RTV The Vd was analyzed for SQV and RTV by non-compartmental methods, using WinNonlin.
Cluster of Differentiation 4 (CD4 ) Count
The pharmacodynamic profile for following 14 days of administration with SQV/RTV 1000/100 mg BID included determining the cluster of differentiation 4 (CD4) count in participants in each group.
Number of Participants With the Indicated Grade 3 and Grade 4 Laboratory Parameters
Laboratory parameters specified in Clinical Operating Guidelines (COG) were summarized. AIDS Clinical Trial Group (ACTG) and American Heart Association (AHA) criteria were used to grade COG laboratory test values. Laboratory parameters for which an increase to Grade 3 (G3) or Grade 4 (G4) occurred are presented in the table below.
Number Participants With Abnormal Vital Signs
Abnormal Vital signs included are high and low Pulse rate (PR), high and how Temperature (Temp), high and low Systolic Blood Pressure (SBP) and high and low Diastolic Blood Pressure (DBP). Vital signs (SBP, DBP, PR,Temp) were measured after participants were in a semi-supine position for at least 5 minutes.
Number of Participants With Abnormal Electrocardiogram (ECG) Findings
Abnormal ECG findings included are high and low Heart Rate (HRT), high and low PQ/PR interval (PQ/PR), high and low QRS interval (QRS), high and low QT interval (QT), high and low QTCB interval (QTcB), high and low QTcF interval (QTcF), high and low RR interval (RR), high and low T Wave, high and low U Wave, high and low ECG. The 12 Lead ECG was recorded after participants were in a semi-supine position for at least 5 minutes. Only participants with abnormal ECG findings are presented in the table below.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
This 2 arm study will assess the effect of moderate liver impairment on the pharmacokinetics of saquinavir and ritonavir at steady state following administration of saquinavir/ritonavir 1000mg/100mg po bid in HIV patients. Saquinavir/ritonavir will be administered concomitantly with 2 to 3 active nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors. The study will compare a group of HIV patients without known liver disease and a group with moderate liver disease. The anticipated time on study treatment is <3 months, and the target sample size is <100 individuals.
