Study groupRoleWhat they receive
EmtricitabineExperimentalParticipants will receive emtricitabine for as long as they continue to meet specific virologic criteria and until either: (1) the participant chooses to discontinue treatment of emtricitabine and withdraw from the rollover protocol; (2) the participant experiences a toxicity that necessitates the permanent discontinuation of emtricitabine, or (3) emtricitabine is approved for market distribution in the participant's country of residence.
Receives: Drug: Emtricitabine

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Emtricitabine in people with HIV-1 Infection, run by Gilead Sciences at 2 sites in South Africa.

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 0 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 26 Apr 2018. 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 South Africa. 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 26 Apr 2018). 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?

Number of Participants Who Had Access to, and Received the Intervention (time frame: Up to 586 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 26 Apr 2018; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 6 Nov 2026.
