Trial summary

The study analyzes the virological response in plasma and non-plasma compartments, as well as the degree and kinetics of immune reconstitution in 70 treatment-naive patients with CD4 < 100/mm3, when they receive treatment with two nucleoside analogs (NRTI) plus one protease inhibitor (PI) compared with 2 NRTI plus one… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Comparison of Antiretroviral Activity and Immunological Effect of Two Triple Treatments With and Without Protease Inhibitors in naïve HIV-1-infected Patients With CD4 < 100/mm3

The study analyzes the virological response in plasma and non-plasma compartments, as well as the degree and kinetics of immune reconstitution in 70 treatment-naive patients with CD4 < 100/mm3, when they receive treatment with two nucleoside analogs (NRTI) plus one protease inhibitor (PI) compared with 2 NRTI plus one non-nucleoside (NNRTI).

  • AZT+3TC+EFVDrug

What is being measured

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

  1. Proportion of patients with VL below 20 copies/ml in plasma at 12 and 24 months.

  2. Proportion of patients with a CD4 count higher than 200 cells/ml at 12 and 24 months.

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Immunophenotypic response at 12 and 24 months (CD4:CD8 quotient,levels of naive

  2. CD4 cells (CD45RA+CD45RO-) and memory cells (CD45RA-CD45RO+)

  3. and levels of CD8 cells (CD28+ y CD38+)

  4. Incidence of adverse events

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing AZT+3TC+IDV+RTV and AZT+3TC+EFV in people with HIV Infections, run by Hospital Clinic of Barcelona at 6 sites in Spain.

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 3 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 Dec 2010. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 sites in Spain. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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?

Proportion of patients with VL below 20 copies/ml in plasma at 12 and 24 months.. The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT00385957, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 Dec 2010.
