PREZISTA®, co-administered with ritonavir (PREZISTA/ritonavir), and with other antiretroviral agents, is indicated for the treatment of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV-1) infection.

This indication is based on analyses of plasma HIV-1 RNA levels and CD4+ cell counts from 2 controlled Phase 3 trials of 48 weeks duration in antiretroviral treatment-naïve and treatment-experienced patients and 2 controlled Phase 2 trials of 96 weeks duration in clinically advanced, treatment-experienced adult patients.

PREZISTA, co-administered with ritonavir (PREZISTA/ritonavir), and with other antiretroviral agents, is indicated for the treatment of HIV-1 infection in pediatric patients 3 years of age and older.

The indication for treatment-experienced pediatric patients 3 to less than 18 years of age is based on analyses of plasma HIV-1 RNA levels and CD4+ cell counts from two open-label Phase 2 trials in antiretroviral treatment-experienced pediatric subjects(24-week analysis for one trial in patients 6 to less than 18 years of age; 48-week analysis for one trial in patients 3 to less than 6 years of age) . The indication for treatment-naïve pediatric patients or antiretroviral treatment-experienced patients with no darunavir resistance associated substitutions is based on one open-label Phase 2 trial of 48 weeks duration in antiretroviral treatment-naïve subjects 12 to less than 18 years of age and pharmacokinetic modeling and simulation for patients 3 to less than 12 years of age.

In treatment-experienced adult and pediatric patients, the following points should be considered when initiating therapy with PREZISTA/ritonavir:

Treatment history and, when available, genotypic or phenotypic testing should guide the use of PREZISTA/ritonavir.

The use of other active agents with PREZISTA/ritonavir is associated with a greater likelihood of treatment response.^[1]
