About this study

Official title: A Controlled Phase 2 Trial Assessing Three Doses of T-20 in Combination With Abacavir, Amprenavir, Ritonavir, and Efavirenz in HIV-1 Infected Adults

The purpose of this study is to see if it is safe and effective to give T-20, a new type of anti-HIV drug, with a combination of other anti-HIV drugs. The other anti-HIV drugs used are abacavir (ABC), amprenavir (APV), ritonavir (RTV), and efavirenz (EFV). Three different doses of T-20 are tested.

Read the detailed description

Patients are assigned to one of four groups. Three dose groups receive a background antiretroviral regimen (ABC, APV, RTV, and EFV) and T-20, which is given at one of three doses on a twice-daily regimen. The fourth group (control) receives the background antiretroviral regimen alone. For each treatment group, 17 patients are enrolled. Treatment is administered for 16 weeks, followed by a 32-week treatment extension, and a 2-week follow-up period. The following are assessed throughout the trial: safety parameters (as measured by hematology, clinical chemistry, urinalysis, and treatment-emergent adverse events); virologic and immunologic activity; phenotypic and genotypic resistance; T-20 plasma levels; and pharmacokinetics of T-20 and oral antiretrovirals. The total study duration is 1 year.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Enfuvirtide, Ritonavir and Abacavir sulfate in people with HIV Infections, run by Hoffmann-La Roche at 20 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 17 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Nov 2005. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 20 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 15 Nov 2005.
