Trial summary

The purpose of this study is to see if giving 1592U89 to HIV-infected patients is safe and effective in lowering viral load (level of HIV in the blood) and raising the level of CD4 cells (cells of the body that help fight infection). Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: A Phase II Randomized, Blinded, Dose-Ranging Multicenter Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of Different Regimens of 1592U89 Monotherapy Upon Selected Immunological and Virological Markers of HIV-1 Infection in Antiretroviral Therapy-Naive Patients

The purpose of this study is to see if giving 1592U89 to HIV-infected patients is safe and effective in lowering viral load (level of HIV in the blood) and raising the level of CD4 cells (cells of the body that help fight infection).

Read the detailed description

Patients are randomized to receive one of three doses of 1592U89. During this randomized dosing phase, if a patient meets one of the following criteria, he/she is offered open-label 1592U89 (300 mg) plus zidovudine (ZDV) plus lamivudine (3TC) (or other licensed antiretrovirals according to standard practice). Criteria are based on falling CD4 counts (return to baseline on two occasions at least 1 month apart), disease progression (defined as occurrence of a new AIDS-defining event according to CDC classification excluding CD4 counts less than 200 cells/mm3), or lack of virus suppression (defined as less than 0.7log10 reduction in viral load at Week 4 with a repeat value 1 week later, more than 5000 copies/ml HIV RNA at Weeks 12, 16, 20, or 24, or 5000 copies/ml or more anytime after Week 24).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Abacavir sulfate in people with HIV Infections, run by Glaxo Wellcome at 6 sites in 2 countries.

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

Who may be eligible to take part?

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 24 Jun 2005. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 sites in France, Germany. 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?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00002390, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 24 Jun 2005.
