About this study

Official title: A Phase II, Open-Label Study of AG1549 in Combination With Other Antiretroviral Agents in Treatment-Naive HIV-Infected Patients

The purpose of this study is to see if two different doses of AG1549 plus other anti-HIV drugs are safe and effective in HIV-infected patients who are not taking anti-HIV drugs.

Read the detailed description

[Note: As of 2/28/2001, due to toxicity studies and concerns for safety, sites were notified that they need to discontinue patients from the capravirine/placebo arms and continue patients with their background therapies or switch patients to new therapies, as deemed appropriate by the investigators.] Patients are randomized to receive one of two doses of AG1549 plus Viracept (nelfinavir) plus Combivir (zidovudine/lamivudine). Patients remain on their assigned therapy for 48 weeks, with a follow-up visit at 28 to 35 days after the last dose of study medication. Blood samples are taken regularly to quantify HIV-1 RNA, CD4 and CD8 counts, peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC), AG1549, Viracept, and M8 plasma concentrations. Physical exams, safety assessments, and other tests are also done throughout the study. On Day 8 and at the end of Week 48, pharmacokinetic samples are collected at 0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 2.5, 3.0, 4.0, 6.0, 8.0, and 12.0 hours postdose. At the end of Weeks 4, 8, 16, 24, and 36, pharmacokinetic samples are taken prior to dosing and between 2 to 4 hours post-dose.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Lamivudine/Zidovudine, Capravirine and Nelfinavir mesylate in people with HIV Infections, run by Agouron Pharmaceuticals at 10 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?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 3 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: paused, 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 10 sites in United States, Dominican Republic. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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 24 Jun 2005.
