FDA Approves Labeling Update for Reyataz (atazanavir sulfate) Capsules to Include 96-Week Data for Previously Untreated HIV-1 Infected Adult Patients

Nov 5, 2009 - Bristol-Myers Squibb Company today announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved a labeling update for REYATAZ® to include long-term data from the CASTLE Study. The CASTLE Study assessed a once-daily REYATAZ/ritonavir (REYATAZ/r)-based regimen versus a twice-daily lopinavir/ritonavir (LPV/r)-based regimen in previously untreated adult patients infected with HIV-1. Data from the study demonstrate enduring virologic response through 96 weeks of treatment with REYATAZ/r as part of combination therapy.
