Summary
Our primary aim is to assess blood concentrations of a drug called efavirenz, an important drug used in the treatment of HIV infection and associate these with variability of genes that control metabolism of the drug. A better understanding of gene variability and how it relates to safety and efficacy outcomes at a reduced, compared to a standard dose of efavirenz could support improved treatment of HIV disease.
