Abstract: This invention relates to the use of a parenteral formulation comprising an anti-virally effective amount of TMC278 or a pharmaceutically acceptable acid-addition salt thereof, and a carrier, for the manufacture of a medicament for the treatment of a subject being infected with HIV, wherein the formulation is to be administered intermittently at a time interval of at least one week.

Abstract: A degradable, removable, pharmaceutical implant for the sustained release of one or more drugs in a subject, wherein the pharmaceutical implant is composed of a tube comprising an outer wall made of a degradable polymer completely surrounding a cavity, wherein the outer wall has a plurality of openings and wherein the cavity contains one or more sets of micro-particles, which micro-particles contain an active agent or a combination of two or more active agents, and wherein the size of the microparticles is selected such that the majority of the microparticles cannot pass through the openings.

Abstract: The present invention relates to methods and means for the evaluation of HIV replicative capacity in a given environment. In particular, the invention provides a growth competition assay that can determine relative viral fitness using a recombinant tagged HIV-1 virus system. The methods rely on plasmid vectors, amplicons, primers and probes, and the generation of replication-competent viruses therefrom. Said methods and materials may find use in multiple fields including diagnostics, drug screening, pharmacogenetics and drug development.
