Paper #479 NCI Prevalence (wk48): 30% in mono-LPV/r vs 32% in TDF/3TC/LPV/r (p = 0.85). NCI Incidence 6% in mono-LPV/r vs 7% in TDF/3TC/LPV/r (p = 0.85). No significant differences in neuropsychological tests Paper #483 Undetectable CSF Viral Load CSF for all but 3 MT patients and in 1 HAART patient (18% vs 6%, p = 0.601). NCI observed in 7 patients on MT and 10 patients on HAART (41% vs 59%; p = 0.494). Global Deficit Score showed differences between groups, indicating better rates in MT group (0.23 [±0.20] vs 0.46 [±0.30]; p = 0.025) Monotherapy and Neurocognitive Impairment at CROI 2012 - Positive Results Bunupuradah T. et al.
