Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate if the combination of Lpv/r monotherapy and anti-HCV drugs does not match with additional toxicity induced by the association of HAART and Peg-IFN + ritonavir in HIV/HCV coinfected patients.

Secondary objective is to assess if Lpv/r monotherapy during HCV-treatment is associated with HIV efficacy versus optimized HAART.
