About this study

Official title: A Phase 2b, Randomized, Double-Blinded, 48-Week, Multicenter, Dose-Response Study of Ibalizumab Plus an Optimized Background Regimen in Treatment-Experienced Patients Infected With HIV-1(Amended to 24-Weeks)

The investigational product, ibalizumab, is a humanized IgG4 monoclonal antibody administered via intravenous infusion at 800 mg every 2 weeks or at 2000 mg every 4 weeks. In addition to study drug, all patients will receive an optimized background regimen (OBR), which is a standard-of-care regimen selected by the investigator prior to randomization that is comprised of 2-4 antiretroviral agents. These agents must have been approved by the local regulatory agency or be available through expanded-access programs for treatment of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).

Read the detailed description

The primary objectives of this study are to:

  • Evaluate the dose-response relationship of antiviral activity of the ibalizumab dose regimens at Week 24 in order to determine the optimal dose and regimen. The primary evaluation of effectiveness will be based on the proportion of patients achieving undetectable viral loads at Week 24.
  • Evaluate the safety and tolerability of two dose regimens of ibalizumab for dose selection

The secondary objectives of this study are to:

  • Evaluate changes from Baseline in viral load, CD4+ cell counts, and time to loss of virologic response (TLOVR)
  • Characterize HIV-1 sensitivity/susceptibility changes associated with ibalizumab administration in combination with OBR
  • Determine the presence and significance of anti-ibalizumab antibodies, if any (immunogenicity of ibalizumab)
  • Assess CD4 receptor density and occupancy
  • Determine the impact of ibalizumab on quality of life as assessed by patient-reported outcomes on questionnaires
  • Evaluate the pharmacokinetic profile of two dose regimens of ibalizumab at steady state

What is being measured

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

  1. The Proportion of Patients Achieving Undetectable Viral Loads at Week 24.

    For the primary efficacy analysis, "undetectable" was defined as having HIV-1 RNA below the limit of assay detection at <50 copies/mL. The primary efficacy endpoint was analyzed using Fisher exact test. The primary analysis was performed using the ITT population and both the missing data equals treatment failure (MEF) and last observation carried forward (LOCF) methods. The more conservative MEF results are recorded here.

    Measured: 24 weeks

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Mean Change From Baseline in Viral Load (log10) at Week 24/EOS

    The mean change in HIV-1 RNA (log10) from the Baseline measurement was analyzed at Week 24/End of Study using a generalized linear model at each scheduled study visit.

    Measured: Week 24 / End of Study

  2. Mean Change From Baseline in CD4+ T-Cell Count at Week 24/EOS

    The mean change in CD4+ T-cell count from the Baseline measurement at Week 24/End of Study was summarized at each scheduled time point by treatment group.

    Measured: Week 24 / End of Study

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Ibalizumab in people with HIV, run by TaiMed Biologics Inc. at 30 sites in 2 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 10 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 5 May 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 30 sites in United States, Puerto Rico. 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 17 Apr 2014). 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 Proportion of Patients Achieving Undetectable Viral Loads at Week 24. (time frame: 24 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 5 May 2014.
