About this study

Official title: A Phase II, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Study of the Safety and Antiviral Activity of the Addition of PMPA Prodrug to Combination Antiretroviral Regimens in Treatment-Experienced HIV-Infected Patients

The purpose of this study is to see if it is safe and effective to add PMPA Prodrug (a new anti-HIV drug) to an anti-HIV drug combination taken by patients who have taken anti-HIV drugs in the past. Genetic response will be studied.

Read the detailed description

Prior to study entry patients are stratified according to HIV-1 RNA level, CD4 cell count, and number of antiretroviral drugs. PMPA Prodrug or placebo is added to current antiretroviral regimens, and is administered in one of three dosing regimens. Patients randomized to receive placebo are eligible to receive open-label PMPA Prodrug for the remainder of the 48-week study period after at least 24 weeks post randomization.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate in people with HIV Infections, run by Gilead Sciences at 24 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 7 inclusion and 9 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 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 24 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?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00002415, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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.
