About this study

Official title: A Phase II, Open-label Trial, to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability and Antiviral Activity of TMC125 in Antiretroviral Experienced HIV-1 Infected Children and Adolescents

The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and antiviral activity of etravirine in treatment-experienced human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infected children and adolescents.

Read the detailed description

The study design is a single arm treatment (all patients assigned to receive etravirine), open label (patients will know the identity of the treatments they are receiving) safety and antiviral activity of Etravirine (TMC125) in treatment-experienced, HIV infected children and adolescents 6 to 17 years of age. Etravirine is a new drug belonging to the NNRTI (a non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor) drug class that slows down the growth of the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). This drug has been tested for safety and effectiveness in adults, however, there is no data on the drug's long-term safety and antiviral activity in children and adolescents. This study will last for a maximum of 48 weeks. A total of 100 ptients will receive etravirine tablets based on body weight and an investigator selected optimized background regimen (OBR) of at least 2 antiretrovirals (ARVs), consisting of a boosted protease inhibitor (PI) and nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor(s) (NRTI[s]). Use of enfuvirtide is optional. Safety will be monitored throughout the study.

What participants receive

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

  • Etravirine (TMC125)Drug

    Patients will be dosed by body weight , i.e. 5.2 mg/kg twice daily (b.i.d.) up to a maximum of 200 mg b.i.d. for 48 weeks.

  • Optimized background regimen (OBR)Drug

    An investigator-selected optimized background regimen (OBR) comprising of a low-dose ritonavir (rtv)-boosted protease inhibitor (PI) (either lopinavir [LPV], darunavir [DRV], atazanavir [ATV] or saquinavir [SQV]) in combination with nucleos(t)ide reverse transcriptase inhibitor(s) (N[t]RTIs) to be dosed according to the drugs individual package inserts for 48 weeks.

What is being measured

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

  1. The Number of Patients With Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs)

    A treatment-emergent adverse event (TEAE) was defined as an event that occurred in the 48-week treatment period during which it emerged (i.e. started or worsened in severity, relation, or other attribute), and not in the subsequent study periods, even if the event continued to be present. Adverse events were graded from 1 to 4 in severity using the Division of Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome severity scale (grade 1 being less severe and grade 4 being more severe). ETR=etravirine/TMC125; OBR=optimized background regimen

    Measured: 48 weeks

  2. The Percentage of Patients With Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs)

    The percentage of patients with a treatment-emergent adverse event (TEAE) (defined as an event that occurred in the 48-week treatment period during which it emerged [i.e. started or worsened in severity, relation, or other attribute], and not in the subsequent study periods, even if the event continued to be present] are provided below. Adverse events were graded from 1 to 4 in severity using the Division of Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome severity scale (grade 1 being less severe and grade 4 being more severe). ETR=etravirine/TMC125; OBR=optimized background regimen

    Measured: 48 weeks

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Population Pharmacokinetic (PK) Estimates of Etravirine/TMC125 (ETR): Area Under the Plasma Concentration-time Curve Over 12 Hours at Steady-state (AUC12h)

    The AUC12h is a Bayesian estimation based on a population pharmacokinetic model and sparse samples collected at each visit over the duration of trial. For each sparse sample taken, the time blood sample was recorded as well as the time of etravirine intake just prior to the time of blood sample.

    Measured: Weeks 4-48

  2. Population Pharmacokinetic (PK) Estimates of Etravirine/TMC125 (ETR): Trough Plasma Concentration (C0h)

    Measured: Week 48

  3. Population Pharmacokinetic (PK) Estimates of Etravirine/TMC125 (ETR): Maximum Plasma Concentration (Cmax)

    Etravirine/TMC125 (ETR) Cmax was approximated for each individual using the median value of plasma ETR concentrations taken 4 hours postdose (± 1 hour), when available, on the day of the Week 4 visit as shown in the table below.

    Measured: Week 4

  4. Percentage of Patients With Virologic Response at Week 24

    Virologic response was defined as the percentage of patients with plasma viral load < 50 copies/mL at Week 24 calculated according to the non-completer=failure (NC=F) imputation method.

    Measured: Week 24

  5. Change From Baseline in Human Immunodeficiency Virus - Type 1 (HIV-1) Ribonucleic Acid (RNA) in Plasma Over Time

    Measured: Baseline, Week 48

  6. The Change From Baseline in CD4 Cell Counts Over Time

    Measured: Baseline, Week 48

  7. The Emergence of Non-nucleoside Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitor Resistance-associated Mutations (NNRTI RAMs) in Patients Classified as Virologic Failures

    Virologic failure (lack of response) was defined as: plasma viral load decline of < 0.5 log10 from Baseline by Week 8 and/or plasma viral load decline of <1.0 log10 from Baseline by Week 12. Virologic failure (loss of response) was defined as 2 consecutive measurements of plasma viral load > 0.5 log10 above the nadir after a minimum of 12 weeks of treatment. The table below provides data for 41 viologic failures of which 30 had mutation data available. In the table below, only the 4 most frequently emerging mutations are presented (emerging in at least 3 patients).

    Measured: Baseline and Endpoint (up to Week 48)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Etravirine (TMC125) and Optimized background regimen (OBR) in people with HIV-1, run by Tibotec Pharmaceuticals, Ireland at 42 sites in 13 countries.

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 7 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 Apr 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 42 sites in United States, France, Spain, Brazil, Canada and 8 more countries. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 21 Dec 2012). 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 Number of Patients With Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) (time frame: 48 weeks). 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 NCT00665847, 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 23 Apr 2015.
