About this study

Official title: A Phase I, Open Label, Controlled, Intra-subject Comparison Study to Investigate the Effect of Co-administration Upon the Pharmacokinetics of Tipranavir (Ritonavir Boosted) and Apricitabine.

The aim of the study is to see if apricitabine or tipranavir affect the levels of each other in the blood (pharmacokinetic interaction) when they are dosed together.

Read the detailed description

Apricitabine is a new NRTI in development for treatment of drug resistant HIV. Tipranavir is a recently licensed protease inhibitor for treatment of drug resistant HIV. Tipranavir affects the plasma concentration of some other drugs when they are used together with tipranavir. This study will examine whether the pharmacokinetics of apricitabine are changed when it is dosed together with tipranavir compared to apricitabine alone. Also, the pharmacokinetics of tipranavir will be examined at steady state when it is dosed alone and when it is dosed together with apricitabine. Information on the safety and tolerability of the two drugs when dosed together will also be obtained.

What is being measured

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

  1. To compare the single dose pharmacokinetics of apricitabine when administered alone and in the presence of steady state concentrations of tipranavir 500 mg administered twice daily in combination with ritonavir 200 mg twice daily.

    Measured: day 1 and day 10

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. To compare the steady state pharmacokinetics of tipranavir 500 mg administered twice daily with ritonavir 200mg in the presence and absence of apricitabine.

    Measured: day 9 and day 10

  2. To evaluate the safety and tolerability of apricitabine administered in combination with tipranavir and ritonavir.

    Measured: day 10

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing apricitabine in people with HIV Infection, run by Avexa 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 3 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 23 Jun 2011. 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 the single dose pharmacokinetics of apricitabine when administered alone and in the presence of steady state concentrations of tipranavir 500 mg administered twice daily in combination with ritonavir 200 mg twice daily. (time frame: day 1 and day 10). 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 23 Jun 2011.
