About this study

Official title: IMPACT OF THERAPY INTENSIFICATION BY AN INTEGRASE INHIBITOR +/- CCR5 INHIBITOR ON THE LYMPHOID RESERVOIR FOR HIV-1 IN CHRONICALLY INFECTED PATIENTS

To determine the efficacy of adding Isentress®, with or without Celsentri®, to effective conventional antiretroviral therapy (comprising at least 2 reverse transcriptase inhibitors and one boosted protease inhibitor), on residual HIV replication and blood cell and gut-associated lymphoid tissue reservoirs (reverse transcriptase inhibitors: RTIs, boosted protease inhibitors: PI/r).

To evaluate the effect of therapy intensification by means of an integrase inhibitor with or without CCR5 inhibitor treatment on the lymphoid reservoir in patients chronically infected with HIV-1, successfully treated with "conventional triple therapy", measured by:

  • residual plasma replication between 0 and 50 copies/ml
  • intracellular HIV RNA levels in circulating lymphocytes (PBMC) and lymphocytes in gut-associated rectal lymphoid tissue (RL).
  • proviral HIV DNA levels in PBMC and RL.

What participants receive

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

  • Isentress®Drug

    P.O, 1 tablet containing 400 mg every 12 hours

  • Celsentri®Drug

    p.o.: 1 tablet containing 150 mg morning and evening (due to combination with PI/r) or containing 300 mg if fosamprenavir/r is used as the PI (MA)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Isentress® and Celsentri® in people with HIV Infections, run by Centre Hospitalier Intercommunal de Toulon La Seyne sur Mer at 2 sites in France.

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 12 inclusion and 10 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 12 May 2017. 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 France. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

residual plasma replication between 0 and 50 copies/ml (time frame: one year). 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?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00935480, 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 12 May 2017.
