About this study

Official title: A Placebo-Controlled, Dose-Escalation Study in HIV-1 Infected Subjects to Characterize the Safety, Tolerability, and Pharmacokinetics of Single Oral Doses of DPC 817

The purpose of this study is to evaluate DPC 817. The safety, dosages, and how the body responds to the drug will be studied.

Read the detailed description

The study will consist of two parts. Patients in Part A will receive a single dose of DPC 817 on two separate occasions and a placebo (a solution or tablet without the drug) on one occasion. Patients in Part B will receive two separate doses of DPC 817. Patients will be admitted to the clinical study unit the day before dosing (Day -1) and remain there for at least 48 hours after taking the study drug. Patients will return to the clinical study unit on Day 8 and Day 28 following the dose in the last treatment period. During the study there will be medical and medication histories taken, physical examinations, vital sign measurements, and routine clinical laboratory tests.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing DPC 817 in people with HIV Infections, run by Pharmasset at 2 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 7 inclusion and 12 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 19 Jul 2005. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in United States, 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 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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 19 Jul 2005.
