The administration of RTV at the clinically sub-therapeutic dosage of 100 mg BID was found to boost APV plasma exposure to such a degree as to permit halving the APV daily pill burden from 16 to 8 capsules/day, in addition to maintaining the minimum plasma APV concentration (C min ) over 24 hours well above the 50% inhibitory concentrations (IC 50 ) of patient-derived HIV-1 isolates [ 15 ] .
