Warning to all patients:
Be very careful to join this study. Tibotec has a placebo arm that can expose you to sequential monotherapy if you do not have any more active agents in your genotype test.
I will be sending a fact sheet for salvage patients this coming week with details on how to maximize your chances to get two active agents if you have failed all commercially available treatments, including Fuzeon.
TMC125—A Second Generation NNRTI in Phase III Clinical Trials
TMC125, also known as etravirine, is an investigational antiretroviral in the same drug class (NNRTI) as Sustiva (efavirenz) and Viramune (nevirapine). Not only is TMC125 active against Sustiva- and Viramune-resistant HIV, recent research suggests it may be harder for HIV to become resistant to this “next generation” NNRTI. Read more about TMC125 here. For information on clinical trials using TMC125, click here.

"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? Your playing small doesn't serve the world. There's nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do... And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we're liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others."
