Volume 49, no. 8, p. 3361-3366. The tenofovir dose should be 136 mg instead of 245 mg. The incorrect dose resulted in an overestimation of tenofovir pharmacokinetic parameters. However, it does not have any effect on either covariate-related or variability parameters or on the precision of the estimates, which are dose-independent parameters. Using the correct dose, the mean-weight-normalized CL/F is calculated to be 750 ml/h/kg, which is in the range of the previously described values of 510 to 910 ml/h/kg (P. Barditch-Crovo, S. G. Deeks, A. Collier, S. Safrin, D. F. Coakley, M. Miller, B. P. Kearney, R. L. Coleman, P. D. Lamy, J. O. Khan, I. McGowan, and P. S. Lietman, Antimicrob. Agents Chemother. 45:2733-2739, 2001). The individual AUC and trough concentration values were also unchanged, as the decrease in tenofovir dose was balanced by the decrease in pharmacokinetic parameters so that the relationship found between the AUC and the body weight/serum creatinine ratio and the possible need to change tenofovir dose with respect to this ratio remains valid. The corrected values are listed below.
Page 3361, Abstract, line 6: The Vc/F, Vp/F, Q/F, and CL/F values ± standard errors should read "297 ± 28.5 liters, 848 ± 209 liters, 80 ± 15 liters/h, and 50.5 ± 3.1 liters/h," respectively.
Page 3361, column 2, line 4: The tenofovir dose should be "136 mg."
Page 3363, Table 3: For the final model with the original dataset, the mean values and standard errors should be 50.5 and 3.1 liters/h, respectively, for the CL/F typical value (TV), 297 and 28.5 liters for the Vc/F TV, 80 and 15 liters/h for the Q/F TV, and 848 and 209 liters for the Vp/F TV.
Page 3363, column 2, line 2: "90.9" should read "50.5."
Page 3364, column 1, line 20: "90.9" should read "50.5."
Page 3364, column 2, line 2: "90.9" should read "50.5."
