About this study

Official title: A Randomized Double-Blind Study of Safety, Virologic and Immunological Effects of Stavudine Plus Lamivudine (3TC) Versus Zidovudine Plus Lamivudine in HIV-Infected Subjects Following At Least Six Months of Zidovudine Therapy

To compare the magnitude and durability of the reduction in plasma HIV RNA in the two treatment groups over the first 12 weeks of treatment. To determine the safety of each of the two treatment groups.

Read the detailed description

Patients will be randomized to either Stavudine (d4T) + Lamivudine (3TC) + Zidovudine placebo or Zidovudine (ZDV) + Lamivudine + Stavudine placebo. Patients whose plasma HIV RNA levels remain >= 500 copies/ml after 8 weeks of blinded double combination therapy will have indinavir added to their treatment regimen at the week 12 visit.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Indinavir sulfate, Lamivudine and Stavudine in people with HIV Infections, run by Bristol-Myers Squibb at 8 sites in 3 countries.

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 3 inclusion and 26 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 4 May 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 8 sites in United States, Canada, Puerto Rico. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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 4 May 2011.
