Trial summary

Several studies from HIV-NAT have demonstrated high nevirapine, indinavir, saquinavir and lopinavir/r levels when compared to Caucasian patients. Until now, the pharmacokinetics of atazanavir have not been explored in a Thai population. We postulate that ATV levels, as with other PIs, are higher in Thai people. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: The Pharmacokinetics of Atazanavir / Ritonavir 200/100 OD Versus 300/100 mg OD in Combination With 2 NRTIs in HIV Pre-treated Patients

Several studies from HIV-NAT have demonstrated high nevirapine, indinavir, saquinavir and lopinavir/r levels when compared to Caucasian patients. Until now, the pharmacokinetics of atazanavir have not been explored in a Thai population. We postulate that ATV levels, as with other PIs, are higher in Thai people. Therefore, the level of ATV in ATV/RTV 300/100 OD may be higher than the acceptable range and could be associated with ATV related toxicity.

Read the detailed description

We are interested in once daily ATV/RTV 200/100 mg OD because of the convenience, reduction in ATV doses which may improve adherence while reducing toxicity and cost. There are limited prospective studies evaluating pharmacokinetic and long term efficacy and safety of atazanavir/ritonavir once daily dose in combination of NRTIs in HIV-1 pretreated patients. We believe that the PK parameters of ATV/RTV given at 200/100mg daily in Thai patients will be equivalent to the ATV/RTV 300/100mg once daily dosing in Caucasian patients when combined with 2NRTIs, and that the once daily regimen will have better safety, tolerability profile, and cost saving while maintaining good CD4 and VL outcome. If, the pharmacokinetic profile of ATV/RTV 200/100 mg OD + 2NRTIs is in acceptable range or comparable with standard dose of ATV/RTV 300/100 mg OD, long term efficacy will be explored later.

What is being measured

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

  1. the pharmacokinetics of atazanavir/ritonavir (ATV/RTV) 200/100 mg once daily in a sample of 22 patients experiencing virological success

    Measured: 1 year

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. The pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic between these patients and data from Thai cohort treated with ATV/RTV 300/100 mg OD

    Measured: 4 weeks

  2. short term safety, tolerability and efficacy data in these PK participating patients

    Measured: 4 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing Atazanavir in people with HIV Infections, run by The HIV Netherlands Australia Thailand Research Collaboration at 1 site in Thailand.

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 8 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 17 Jul 2020. 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 Thailand. 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 combined 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.

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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?

the pharmacokinetics of atazanavir/ritonavir (ATV/RTV) 200/100 mg once daily in a sample of 22 patients experiencing virological success (time frame: 1 year). 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 NCT00411957, 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 17 Jul 2020.
