About this study

Official title: A Rollover Study to Evaluate Safety and Therapeutic Effect of Re-infusing Subjects Who Completed Participation in the VRX496-USA-05-002 Trial With Autologous T Cells Transduced With VRX496

The objective of this study is to determine the long term safety and tolerability of an additional infusion of 10 billion VRX496 gene-modified CD4 T cells with a focus on evaluating additional therapeutic benefits with respect to viral load and CD4 counts.

Read the detailed description

The study has concluded it's 9-month active phase. Subjects are currently in a 15-year Long Term Follow-up Phase of the study.

In keeping with the recently released Guidance on Monitoring For Delayed Adverse Events, that states that for the first 5 years all subjects should undergo monitoring of vector sequences every 6 months, subjects will visit the clinic at a maximum of 6 months intervals for a blood test evaluating persistence of vector sequences.

Therefore for the first 5 years, subjects will have 6 months visits for safety assessment. For years 6 to 15, subjects will be contacted by phone or mail. At these contacts, subjects will be asked about their health status.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • VRX496-transduced autologous CD4 T cellsGenetic

    The cell dose will consist of approximately 10 billion VRX496-transduced autologous CD4 T cells provided as a single bolus infusion.

What is being measured

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

  1. To evaluate the safety and tolerability of an additional infusion of VRX496 CD4+ T cells in subjects who previously received VRX496 CD4 T cells under protocol VRX496-USA-05-002.

    Measured: 9 months

  2. To evaluate the change in log10 HIV-1 RNA level

    Measured: 9 months

  3. To evaluate the change between main study baseline CD4 counts and Month 9 post reinfusion

    Measured: 9 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Changes in immune function as determined by ICS and TCR vβ Repertoire profile.

    Measured: 9 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing VRX496-transduced autologous CD4 T cells in people with HIV Infections, run by VIRxSYS Corporation 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 4 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 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 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.

What does this phase mean?

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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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 evaluate the safety and tolerability of an additional infusion of VRX496 CD4+ T cells in subjects who previously received VRX496 CD4 T cells under protocol VRX496-USA-05-002. (time frame: 9 months). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 8 Jun 2011.
