Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 to 65 years
  • All sexes
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Subjects must have a body mass index (BMI) of 18 to 30 kg/m2, inclusive (BMI = weight (kg)/[height (m)]2) and weigh at least 50 kg.
  • Males or females, ages > 18 to < 65 years.
  • Women of childbearing potential (WOCBP) must not be nursing or pregnant. All women of childbearing potential (have not reached menopause nor undergone hysterectomy, bilateral oophorectomy, or tubal ligation) must have a negative serum human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) test performed at screening (within 24 hours before the start of study day 1). Female subjects who are not of reproductive potential (have reached menopause or undergone hysterectomy, bilateral oophorectomy, or tubal ligation) or whose male partner has undergone successful vasectomy with resultant azoospermia or has azoospermia for any other reason, are eligible without requiring the use of contraception. Documentation of menopause, sterilization (hysterectomy, oophorectomy, tubal ligation, or vasectomy) and azoospermia by patient-reported history is acceptable. Both male and female study volunteers of reproductive potential must agree not to participate in a conception process (i.e., active attempt to become pregnant or to impregnate via sperm donation or in vitro fertilization), and, if participating in sexual activity that could lead to pregnancy, the female study volunteer/male partner must use a form of contraception as specified below while receiving protocol-specified medication(s) and for one month after stopping the medication(s). Male study volunteers will be required to use a barrier method for at least 3 months after completion of the study.
  • Condoms (male or female) with or without a spermicidal agent
  • Diaphragm or cervical cap with spermicide

Who cannot join

  • History or current evidence of any significant acute or chronic medical illness that, within the investigator's discretion, would interfere with the conduct or interpretation of the study.
  • History of acute or chronic pancreatitis.
  • History of diabetes mellitus, hypertriglyceridemia, or chronic renal insufficiency.
  • Proven or suspected acute hepatitis at the time of study entry.
  • Current or recent (within 3 months) gastrointestinal disease which would interfere with the conduct or interpretation of the study.

About this study

Official title: Pharmacokinetic Evaluation of Single-dose Rosuvastatin 10 mg When Co-administered With Steady-state Tipranavir 500 mg/Ritonavir 200 mg TPV/r) B.I.D. in Healthy Adult Volunteers

Tipranavir (TPV) plus ritonavir (RTV) is indicated for use as part of an antiretroviral treatment regimen for resistant HIV-1 infection in adult patients. Since significant cholesterol and triglyceride elevations are commonly reported during TPV/RTV treatment, effective treatment strategies are critical to prevent long-term cardiovascular events. Rosuvastatin, a potent 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme (HMG-CoA) reductase inhibitor, is unlikely to interact with TPV/RTV since it is not extensively metabolized, however, a formal drug interaction study is needed before this combination can be recommended. This study will examine the pharmacokinetic interactions between tipranavir/ritonavir (TPV/RTV [TPV/r] 500 mg/200 mg twice daily [B.I.D]) and single dose rosuvastatin when the two are co-administered to healthy adult volunteers. The investigators hypothesize that if tipranavir 500 mg is co-administered with low-dose ritonavir 200 mg and rosuvastatin (10 mg) no significant clinical interaction will occur.

Read the detailed description

This is a prospective, open-label pharmacokinetic study in healthy HIV seronegative adults. This study will examine the pharmacokinetic interactions between steady-state TPV/r 500 mg/200 mg B.I.D. and single dose rosuvastatin 10 mg when the drugs are co-administered.

Rosuvastatin 24 hour pharmacokinetic sampling will be performed on days 1-2 and 12-13. Rosuvastatin 48 hr samples will be collected on days 3 and day 14.

Tipranavir and ritonavir 12 hour pharmacokinetic sampling will be on day 11 and 12.

Safety assessments (physical examination, vital sign measurements, and clinical laboratory tests) will be performed at screening, during the study and prior to discharge. Subjects will be continuously monitored for adverse events throughout the duration of the study.

On Day 1, subjects will receive a single 10 mg dose of rosuvastatin. Beginning on Day 3, subjects will receive a combination of TPV 500 mg/RTV 200 mg twice daily for 11 days (Days 3-13).

On Day 12, subjects will receive a single 10 mg dose of rosuvastatin co-administered with TPV/r.

What is being measured

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

  1. To compare single dose rosuvastatin Area Under the Curve during 24 hours (AUC0-24h) and Cmax with single dose rosuvastatin AUC0-24h and Cmax when co-administered with TPV/r 500 mg/200 mg twice daily at steady state

    Measured: 24 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Tipranavir/Ritonavir and Rosuvastatin in people with HIV Infections, run by Johns Hopkins University at 1 site 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 5 inclusion and 25 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 4 Feb 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site 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 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.

What does the primary outcome measure?

To compare single dose rosuvastatin Area Under the Curve during 24 hours (AUC0-24h) and Cmax with single dose rosuvastatin AUC0-24h and Cmax when co-administered with TPV/r 500 mg/200 mg twice daily at steady state (time frame: 24 hours). 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 4 Feb 2016.
