About this study
Official title: A Randomized, Double-Blind Multicenter Trial to Compare the Safety and Efficacy of Lamivudine (3TC; GR109714X) Monotherapy Versus Zidovudine (AZT) Monotherapy Versus 3TC Administered With AZT in the Treatment of HIV-1 Infected Patients Who Are AZT Naive (< 4 Weeks) With CD4 Cell Counts of 200-500 Cells/mm3
To evaluate the safety and efficacy of high-dose lamivudine (3TC) alone versus zidovudine (AZT) alone versus 3TC at high and low doses in combination with AZT in HIV-1 infected patients.
PER 02/27/95 AMENDMENT: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of both blinded and open-label combination therapy.
Read the detailed description
Patients are randomized to one of four treatment arms: 3TC alone, AZT alone, low-dose 3TC plus AZT, or high-dose 3TC plus AZT. Patients receive treatment for 32 weeks, with possible extension to 52 weeks.
PER 02/27/95 AMENDMENT: Patients may continue therapy on AZT and low-dose 3TC on an open-label basis. Open-label therapy continues with follow-up every 8 weeks until intolerable toxicity occurs or study terminates.

What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
What does this phase mean?
Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00002320, which also lists 2 linked publications.
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 12 Dec 2005.
