Pediatric study of Intelence as An

Tudor-Williams G, et al. XIX IAC 2012. Abstract TUAB0204
Background
The efficacy and safety of the NNRTI etravirine (ETR, TMC125) has been demonstrated in the Phase III DUET trials in treatment-experienced, HIV-1-infected adult patients1–4
In pediatric patients, there is a need for additional antiretrovirals (ARVs) with unique resistance characteristics and with appropriate dose and formulations
Week 24 results of the PIANO (TMC125-C213; NCT00665847) trial showed that ETR 5.2mg/kg bid (maximum dose 200mg bid) demonstrated safety and efficacy in HIV-1-infected, treatment-experienced children and adolescents aged 6 to <18 years5
Safety, efficacy and pharmacokinetic results from the Week 48 analysis are presented 1. Madruga J, et al. Lancet 2007;370:29–38

Adherence was measured either by pill count ([actual amount taken / amount to be taken] x 100%) and questionnaire (‘have any doses been missed over the last 3 days?’)
Self-reported adherence was higher than adherence estimated by pill count
Adherence by pill count is an independent predictor of virologic response as determined by an exploratory multivariate logistic regression model

Conclusions ETR 5.2mg/kg bid (maximum dose 200mg bid)
demonstrated safety and efficacy in this treatment-experienced population of HIV-1-infected children and adolescents aged 6 to <18 years
While the trial was not designed for comparison between children and adolescents, there were numerically higher virologic responses in children than adolescents
– most likely due to less advanced disease, better adherence and less NNRTI use prior to treatment with ETR in children vs adolescents
There is an ongoing program evaluating the efficacy and safety of ETR in younger treatment-experienced children (IMPAACT; NCT01504841)
