About this study

Official title: A Phase 1 Multicenter, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Trial to Evaluate the Safety and Immunogenicity of an HIV-1 Gag DNA Vaccine Administered Alone or With Escalating Doses of IL-12 DNA or IL-15 DNA Molecular Adjuvants to HIV-1 Positive Adults Receiving Stable HAART.

The main purpose of this study is to learn whether the study vaccine and the adjuvants(drugs that are used to help immune response) have an acceptable safety profile in treating individuals with HIV.

A second purpose for this study is to understand how your immune system responds to the study vaccine with the adjuvants. Understanding these differences could be useful in several ways. First, it might help identify people whose disease is likely to respond to the study vaccine with the study adjuvants. Second, the information might be useful in developing other treatments for people whose disease does not respond to the study vaccine with the adjuvants.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • IL-15 DNA (formulated with bupivacaine)Biological

  • IL-12 DNA (formulated with bupivacaine)Biological

  • Sodium chloride injection USP (0.9%)Biological

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. To evaluate the safety and tolerability of intramuscular administration of HIV-1 gag DNA vaccine (total of three doses) in individuals on stable HAART

  2. intramuscular administration of HIV-1 gag DNA vaccine when administered with increasing dosage levels of IL-12 DNA following each vaccine dose (total of three doses) in individuals on stable HAART

  3. intramuscular administration of HIV-1 gag DNA vaccine when administered with increasing dosage levels of IL-15 DNA following each vaccine dose (total of three doses) in individuals on stable HAART

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing HIV-1 gag DNA (formulated with bupivacaine), IL-15 DNA (formulated with bupivacaine) and IL-12 DNA (formulated with bupivacaine) in people with HIV Infections, run by Wyeth is now a wholly owned subsidiary of Pfizer at 13 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 4 inclusion and 4 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Dec 2007. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 13 sites in United States, Germany, Sweden. 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 was stopped early. 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.

What does the primary outcome measure?

To evaluate the safety and tolerability of intramuscular administration of HIV-1 gag DNA vaccine (total of three doses) in individuals on stable HAART. The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

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 5 Dec 2007.
