  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

Who cannot join

  • History or evidence of current use of alcohol, barbiturate, amphetamine, recreational or narcotic drug use, which in the investigator's opinion would compromise subject's safety and/or compliance with the trial procedures.
  • Currently active significant gastrointestinal, cardiovascular, neurologic, psychiatric, metabolic, renal, hepatic, respiratory, inflammatory, or infectious disease, that in the opinion of the investigator would represent a contraindication to study enrollment.
  • Creatinine clearance of ≤ 60mL/min.
  • Currently significant diarrhea, gastric stasis, or constipation that in the investigator's opinion could influence drug absorption or bioavailability.
  • eruptions, drug allergies, food allergy, dermatitis, eczema, psoriasis, or urticaria, that in the opinion of the investigator would represent a contraindication to study enrollment.

  • History of significant drug allergy such as, but not limited to, sulphonamides and penicillins. Prezista is a sulphonamide. The potential for cross-sensitivity between drugs in the sulphonamide class and Prezista in HIV-negative subjects is unknown.
  • Use of concomitant medication, including investigational, prescription, and over-the-counter products and dietary supplements with the following exceptions: aspirin, acetaminophen, anti-histamines such as diphenhydramine, inhalers for asthma, daily multivitamins, mineral supplements and hormonal oral contraceptives.

  • Female subjects of childbearing potential without use of effective nonhormonal birth control methods, or not willing to continue practicing these birth control methods for at least 30 days after the end of the treatment period; Note: Estrogen-based hormonal contraception may not be reliable when taking Prezista, therefore to be eligible for this trial, women of childbearing potential should either:
  • use a double barrier method to prevent pregnancy (i.e., using a condom with either diaphragm or cervical cap);
  • use non-estrogen hormonal based contraceptives in combination with a barrier contraceptive (i.e., male condom, diaphragm or cervical cap, or female condom);

  • be not sexually active, or have a vasectomized partner (confirmed sterile).
  • Women with tubal ligation are required to use one non-hormonal contraceptive method.
  • Women who are postmenopausal for at least 2 years, and women with total hysterectomy are considered of non-childbearing potential.

About this study

Official title: The Effects of Darunavir Plus Ritonavir on the Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of Rosuvastatin

This is a phase I, open-label, controlled drug interaction study to determine the effects of darunavir plus ritonavir on the pharmacokinetics of the hydroxymethylglutaryl coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase inhibitor, rosuvastatin, in HIV-1-seronegative subjects.

Read the detailed description

Twelve HIV-negative healthy volunteers will be randomized to one of two groups. Group 1 would receive rosuvastatin 10mg daily (Treatment A) in interval 1 for 7 days, followed by a washout period of at least 7 days. In interval 2, darunavir/ritonavir 600/100mg bid (Treatment B) would be administered for 7 days, followed by another 7 day washout period. Lastly, in interval 3 subjects will administer darunavir/ritonavir and rosuvastatin (Treatment C) for total of 7 days. Group 2 will administer Treatment B in interval 1 for 7 days, followed by a washout period of 7 days, then treatment A in interval 2 for 7 days followed by another 7 day washout period. Group 2 would then co-administer rosuvastatin and darunavir/ritonavir for the last 7 days. Intensive PK sampling will be performed on day 7, 21 and 35 following a meal.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing darunavir, ritonavir, rosuvastatin and rosuvastatin, darunavir, ritonavir in people with HIV Infections, run by University of Cincinnati at 1 site 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 6 inclusion and 27 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 11 Feb 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site 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 combined phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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 19 Jan 2022). 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?

Cmax of Rosuvastatin (time frame: 7 days). 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?
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 11 Feb 2022.
