Adverse Reactions in Treatment-Naive Adult Participants The safety profile of REYATAZ in treatment-naive adults is based on 1625 participants with HIV-1 in clinical trials. 536 participants received REYATAZ 300 mg with ritonavir 100 mg and 1089 participants received REYATAZ 400 mg or higher (without ritonavir).
The most common adverse reactions were nausea, jaundice/scleral icterus, and rash. Selected clinical adverse reactions of moderate or severe intensity reported in ≥ 2% of treatment-naive participants receiving combination therapy including REYATAZ 300 mg with ritonavir 100 mg and REYATAZ 400 mg (without ritonavir) are presented in Tables 7 and 8, respectively.

The safety profile of REYATAZ in pediatric participants with HIV-1 (6 to less than 18 years of age) taking the capsule formulation was generally similar to that observed in clinical studies of REYATAZ in adults. The most common Grade 2–4 adverse events (≥5%, regardless of causality) reported in pediatric participants were cough (21%), fever (18%), jaundice/scleral icterus (15%), rash (14%), vomiting (12%), diarrhea (9%), headache (8%), peripheral edema (7%), extremity pain (6%), nasal congestion (6%), oropharyngeal pain (6%), wheezing (6%), and rhinorrhea (6%).
Asymptomatic second-degree atrioventricular block was reported in <2% of participants. 2 mg/dL, 58%), neutropenia (9%), and hypoglycemia (4%). All other Grade 3–4 laboratory abnormalities occurred with a frequency of less than 3%.
Adverse Reactions in Pediatric Participants with HIV-1:
REYATAZ Oral Powder The data described below reflect exposure to REYATAZ oral powder in 155 participants weighing at least 5 kg to less than 35 kg, including 134 participants exposed for 48 weeks. These data are from two pooled, open-label, multi-center clinical trials in treatment-naive and treatment-experienced pediatric participants with HIV-1 (AI424-397 [PRINCE I] and AI424-451 [PRINCE II]).
Age ranged from 3 months to 10 years of age. In these studies, 51% were female and 49% were male. All participants received ritonavir and 2 nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs). The safety profile of REYATAZ in pediatric participants taking REYATAZ oral powder was generally similar to that observed in clinical studies of REYATAZ in pediatric participants taking REYATAZ capsules.
6 times ULN, 16%), and increased lipase (8%). All other Grade 3–4 laboratory abnormalities occurred with a frequency of less than 3%. Adverse Reactions in Participants with HIV-1 and Hepatitis B and/or Hepatitis C Virus In Study AI424-138, 60 participants administered REYATAZ 300 mg with ritonavir 100 mg once daily, and 51 participants treated with lopinavir/ritonavir 400 mg/100 mg (as fixed-dose product) twice daily, each with fixed-dose tenofovir DF/emtricitabine, were seropositive for hepatitis B and/or C at study entry.
ALT levels >5 times ULN developed in 10% (6/60) of the participants administered REYATAZ with ritonavir and 8% (4/50) of the participants treated with lopinavir/ritonavir. AST levels >5 times ULN developed in 10% (6/60) of the participants administered REYATAZ with ritonavir and none (0/50) of the participants treated with lopinavir/ritonavir.
In Study AI424-045, 20 participants administered REYATAZ 300 mg with ritonavir 100 mg once daily, and 18 participants treated with lopinavir/ritonavir 400 mg/100 mg twice daily (as fixed-dose product), were seropositive for hepatitis B and/or C at study entry.
ALT levels >5 times ULN developed in 25% (5/20) of the participants administered REYATAZ with ritonavir and 6% (1/18) of the participants treated with lopinavir/ritonavir treated. AST levels >5 times ULN developed in 10% (2/20) of the participants administered REYATAZ with ritonavir and 6% (1/18) of the participants treated with lopinavir/ritonavir.
In Studies AI424-008 and AI424-034, 74 participants treated with REYATAZ 400 mg once daily, 58 who received efavirenz, and 12 who received nelfinavir were seropositive for hepatitis B and/or C at study entry. ALT levels >5 times ULN developed in 15% of the participants treated with REYATAZ, 14% of the participants treated with efavirenz, and 17% of the participants treated with nelfinavir.
AST levels >5 times ULN developed in 9% of the participants treated with REYATAZ, 5% of the participants treated with efavirenz, and 17% of the participants treated with nelfinavir. 8) ] . 2 Postmarketing Experience The following events have been identified during postmarketing use of REYATAZ.
Because these reactions are reported voluntarily from a population of unknown size, it is not always possible to reliably estimate their frequency or establish a causal relationship to drug exposure. 2) ] , pruritus, angioedema
