Observational Study of Nevirapine Extended Release in Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) Patients in Daily Clinical Practice
Summary
This Post Marketing Surveillance study will be performed as an open-label, prospective, non-interventional, uncontrolled study in Human immunodeficit Virus-1 (HIV-1) infected patients. Data will only be documented in patients for whom a pharmacotherapy with nevirapine extended release is initiated. Both anti-retroviral therapy (ART) naïve patients and pre-treated patients switching from nevirapine immediate release or other anti-retroviral therapy (ART) will be included in the study. The decision to initiate treatment with nevirapine extended release is independent of this study and is based entirely on individual patient need and the judgement of the treating physician. The aim of the study is to assess the safety and efficacy and treatment adherence of nevirapine extended release in HIV-1 infected patients in routine clinical practice. It is planned to document five visits for each patient over a twenty four week observational period.

Encephalitis, Viral
Inflammation of brain parenchymal tissue as a result of viral infection. Encephalitis may occur as primary or secondary manifestation of TOGAVIRIDAE INFECTIONS; HERPESVIRIDAE INFECTIONS; ADENOVIRIDAE INFECTIONS; FLAVIVIRIDAE INFECTIONS; BUNYAVIRIDAE INFECTIONS; PICORNAVIRIDAE INFECTIONS; PARAMYXOVIRIDAE INFECTIONS; ORTHOMYXOVIRIDAE INFECTIONS; RETROVIRIDAE INFECTIONS; and ARENAVIRIDAE INFECTIONS.
Meningitis, Viral
Viral infections of the leptomeninges and subarachnoid space. TOGAVIRIDAE INFECTIONS; FLAVIVIRIDAE INFECTIONS; RUBELLA; BUNYAVIRIDAE INFECTIONS; ORBIVIRUS infections; PICORNAVIRIDAE INFECTIONS; ORTHOMYXOVIRIDAE INFECTIONS; RHABDOVIRIDAE INFECTIONS; ARENAVIRIDAE INFECTIONS; HERPESVIRIDAE INFECTIONS; ADENOVIRIDAE INFECTIONS; JC VIRUS infections; and RETROVIRIDAE INFECTIONS may cause this form of meningitis. Clinical manifestations include fever, headache, neck pain, vomiting, PHOTOPHOBIA, and signs of meningeal irritation. (From Joynt, Clinical Neurology, 1996, Ch26, pp1-3)
