About this study

Official title: A Phase III Randomized, Double-blinded, Placebo-controlled Trial to Investigate the Efficacy, Tolerability and Safety of TMC125 as Part of an ART Regimen, Including TMC114/RTV and an Investigator-selected OBR, in HIV-1 Infected Patients With Limited Treatment to no Treatment Options.

The purpose of this study is research with the goal of evaluating the effect of TMC125 (a non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor) on slowing down the growth of the HIV virus. The study will also investigate whether this new medication is well tolerated, and to further confirm that the medication is safe to be used

Read the detailed description

This is a Phase III, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial to evaluate the long-term efficacy, tolerability, and safety of TMC125 as part of an antiretroviral therapy (ART) regimen containing TMC114/ritonavir (RTV) and an investigator-selected optimized background (OBR) in treatment-experienced HIV-1 infected patients. TMC125 is a non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI). TMC114 is a protease inhibitor (PI). In this trial, TMC114 will be given with a low dose of ritonavir (RTV), a protease inhibitor commonly used with other, full dose protease inhibitors to improve activity. Additional assessments to be evaluated in this trial include: changes in the HIV-1 genotype, drug susceptibility, and the population pharmacokinetics of TMC125. A pharmacokinetic substudy will be performed at selected sites. Health-related quality of life will be assessed for patients receiving an antiretroviral therapy containing either TMC125 or placebo. Safety and tolerability will be documented throughout the trial. Six hundred HIV-1 infected patients on a stable but virologically failing regimen will be included in the trial. Patients should have at least 1 documented non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI) resistance-associated mutation (either at screening or from historical genotype reports), an HIV-1 plasma viral load > 5000 RNA copies/mL at screening, and at least 3 documented primary protease inhibitor (PI) mutations. Patients will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to either TMC125 (200 mg twice daily) or to matching placebo; both in combination with TMC114/RTV (600/100 mg twice daily) and an investigator selected OBR of at least 2 antiretrovirals (ARVs), consisting of nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor(s) (NRTI[s]) with or without enfuvirtide. The trial will involve a screening period of up to 6 weeks, a 48-week treatment period, and a 4 week follow-up period. Patients will take 200 mg oral doses of TMC125 tablets or placebo tablets, twice daily (administered as 2 tablets twice daily, with food) in combination with 600 mg oral doses of TMC114 tablets and 100 mg oral doses of ritonavir (administered as 2 tablets of TMC114 and 1 capsule of ritonavir twice daily, with food). The treatment period is 48 weeks.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing TMC125 in people with HIV, run by Tibotec Pharmaceuticals, Ireland.

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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Jun 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Evaluation of efficacy, tolerability and safety of TMC125 as part of an antiretroviral therapy containing TMC114/ritonavir and an investigator selected optimized background regimen.. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00255099, which also lists 5 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 15 Jun 2011.
