Change From Baseline in Log 10 Plasma HIV-1 RNA Viral Load

Number of Participants With Any Adverse Event (AE) and Serious Adverse Event (SAE)
An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a participant or clinical investigation participant, temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product, whether or not considered related to the medicinal product. SAEs are defined as those events that were fatal or immediately life-threatening, and those events that resulted in hospitalization; prolonged an existing hospitalization; resulted in disability; or was a congenital anomaly.
Change From Baseline in CD4+ Lymphocyte Count
Summary statistics for change from baseline in CD4+ lymphocyte count were presented . Change from baseline in CD4+ lymphocyte count was derived as follows: Change from baseline = (CD4+ count at Week X) - (CD4+ count at baseline).
Number of Participants Meeting Virologic Failure Criteria
The participant was considered as virologic failure at Week 12 clinic visit if patient achieved HIV-RNA <50 copies/mL at Week 4, and HIV-RNA > 50 copies/mL at Week 12, and HIV-RNA >50 copies/mL confirmed at 2 to 4 weeks after Week 12 or if participants failed to achieve a viral load decrease from baseline greater or equal to 0.5 log10 at Week 12 and failed to achieve a viral load decrease from baseline greater or equal to 0.5 log10 confirmed at 2 to 4 weeks after Week 12. The participant was considered as virologic failure at Week 24 clinic visit if participant achieved HIV-RNA <50 copies/mL at week 12, and HIV-RNA >50 copies/mL at week 24/early discontinuation, and HIV-RNA >50 copies/mL confirmed at 2 to 4 weeks after week 24/early discontinuation or HIV-RNA >50 copies/mL at any time up to week 24 and HIV-RNA >50 copies/mL confirmed at 2 to 4 weeks after week 24/early discontinuation.

The participant was considered as virologic failure at Week 24 clinic visit if participant achieved HIV-RNA <50 copies/mL at week 12, and HIV-RNA >50 copies/mL at week 24/early discontinuation, and HIV-RNA >50 copies/mL confirmed at 2 to 4 weeks after week 24/early discontinuation or HIV-RNA >50 copies/mL at any time up to week 24 and HIV-RNA >50 copies/mL confirmed at 2 to 4 weeks after week 24/early discontinuation.
Number of Participants Adhering to Enfuvirtide (ENF)
Adherence to ENF treatment regimen was calculated using the participant's response to the query on the "Participant Adherence Questionnaire case report form (CRF)" about injections incomplete or missed in the last 4 days preceding the study visit. The percentage adherence to the ENF regimen at each study visit is given by: % Adherence = ([8 - the number of doses missed] / 8) x 100. The number and percentage of participants adhering to the ENF regimen were presented by adherence category (100%, ≥95%, ≥90% and ≥85%) at Weeks 4, 12, and 24.

Number of Participants With 1 or More Injection Site Reactions Meeting the Criteria of an Serious Adverse Event
Injection site reactions (ISRs) referred to any localized sign or symptom, including erythema, induration, pruritus, nodules, ecchymosis (degree of bruising/ discoloration), and pain/discomfort. Injection site reactions were monitored by trained study personnel at weeks 1, 4, 12, 16, and 24. Interruption of ENF for toxicity management of recurrent local grade 3 or 4 ISRs until the sign or symptom resolved to grade 2 was at the discretion of the investigator. Any individual injection site signs or symptoms meeting the criteria for a serious adverse event (SAE) had to be reported as an SAE. In the event of a serious ISR, the participant was to immediately discontinue ENF and withdraw from the study. If the participant was not already hospitalized, serious ISRs required a clinic visit within 72 hours of the event.

Descriptive Summary of ISR Parameters (ie, Severity and Frequency of Pain and Symptoms) by Injection Device Based on an ISR Grading Tool.
Injection site reactions (ISRs) referred to any localized sign or symptom, including erythema, induration, pruritus, nodules, ecchymosis (degree of bruising/ discoloration), and pain/discomfort. Injection site reactions were monitored by trained study personnel at weeks 1, 4, 12, 16, and 24. Grades 0 through 4 are a measure of intensity, not seriousness. Thus, a grade 3 or grade 4 sign or symptom could be severe, but not necessarily serious. Only active, ongoing ISR were counted. The maximum severity grade for pain/discomfort since the last visit at any injection site was recorded whether or not the maximum severity of pain/discomfort was ongoing at the time of clinical evaluation.
Number of Participants Discontinuing Study Medication Due to Clinical Adverse Events
The total number and percentage of participants who discontinued the study medication (ENF) due to clinical adverse events (including clinically significant laboratory abnormalities and AIDS Clinical Trials Group (ACTG) grade≥3 laboratory toxicities) were noted and presented.
