HIV drug swap keeps virus in check, study finds

NCT ID NCT00454337

First seen Apr 07, 2026 · Last updated May 11, 2026 · Updated 7 times

Summary

This study looked at whether people with HIV who were already on a successful treatment regimen including enfuvirtide could safely switch to a different drug, raltegravir, without the virus rebounding. 170 adults with suppressed HIV (below 400 copies/mL) were randomly assigned to either stay on enfuvirtide or switch to raltegravir. The main goal was to see if the switch was just as good at keeping the virus under control for 24 weeks.
