About this study

Official title: A Phase II, Randomized Trial of Open-Label Truvada With Darunavir/Ritonavir Versus Multiclass Therapy With Truvada, Darunavir/Ritonavir, Maraviroc and Raltegravir in Acutely HIV-1 Infected Antiretroviral-Naïve Subjects

The researchers are involved in a phase II, randomized, two-arm study, comparing the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of open-label ritonavir (RTV)-enhanced darunavir with Truvada to a 5-drug multi-class regimen including truvada, darunavir/ritonavir/maraviroc/and raltegravir on acutely HIV-1-infected, antiretroviral (ARV) drug-naïve men and women. Subjects will participate for at least 60 weeks and up to 96 weeks if in the opinion of the investigator and patient that continued therapy is in the patient's best interest.

Hypotheses:

  • Multi-class antiretroviral therapy (ART) is superior to RTV-enhanced ATV in combination with Emtricitabine/Tenofovir DF (FTC/TDF) with respect to suppression of viral replication.
  • Multi-class ART is superior to RTV-enhanced ATV in combination with FTC/TDF with respect to immune reconstitution in peripheral blood and in the gastrointestinal mucosa.
  • Multi-class ART is equivalent to RTV-enhanced ATV in combination with FTC/TDF with respect to tolerability.
Read the detailed description
  • DURATION: Subjects will participate for at least 60 weeks and up to 96 weeks if in the opinion of the investigator and patient that continued therapy is in the patient's best interest.
  • SAMPLE SIZE: 36 subjects randomized 2:1 multi-class versus standard antiretroviral therapy.
  • POPULATION: Acutely HIV-1-infected, antiretroviral (ARV) drug-naïve (≤ 7 days of ARV treatment at anytime prior to study entry*) men and women ≥ 18 years of age.
  • REGIMEN: At entry subjects will be randomized to one of the following in a 1:2 ratio:

ARM A: FTC 200 mg/TDF 300 mg QD + darunavir 800 mg/ritonavir 100 mg QD

ARM B: FTC 200 mg/TDF 300 mg QD + darunavir 800mg/ritonavir 100 mg QD + Raltegravir 400 mg BID + Maraviroc 150 mg BID

The three primary objectives are:

  1. To assess whether a multi-class regimen could completely suppress virus replication in HIV infected individuals based on:
  • Plasma HIV-1 RNA levels at 48 weeks
  • Ultrasensitive < 50 copy assay
  • 5 copy assay
  • 1 copy assay
  • Cell associated HIV-1RNA levels at week 48
  • Proviral DNA
  • Levels at week 48
  • Decay rates from week 12 to week 48
  1. To determine whether multi-class antiviral therapy results in enhanced immune reconstitution in peripheral blood and gastrointestinal mucosa based on flow and immunohistochemistry.
  2. To assess tolerability of multi-class compact antiviral therapy to that of standard compact antiviral therapy.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing darunavir 800 mg, FTC 200 mg/TDF 300mg and Maraviroc in people with HIV Infections, run by Rockefeller University at 2 sites 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 28 inclusion and 13 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 9 Mar 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites 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.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 9 Mar 2015). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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 Primary Outcome of This Study is the Proportion of Patients Having Detectable HIV-1 RNA Using the Single Copy Assay After 48 Weeks of Treatment and the Study Hypothesis is That New Treatment is Better Than the Control Group. (time frame: 48 weeks). 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 9 Mar 2015.
