About this study

Official title: Effect of Antacids on the Pharmacokinetics of Raltegravir in Healthy Volunteers

The purpose of this study is to test whether there is a drug interaction between raltegravir (a medicine used to treat the human immunodeficiency virus or HIV) and antacids.

Read the detailed description

This study will determine if an interaction occurs between the HIV medicine raltegravir and an antacid. A prior study found an interaction with another medicine like raltegravir called elvitegravir and an antacid. The elvitegravir levels were reduced by half. The same interaction may occur with raltegravir and an antacid based on the structure of this medicine and how it works. When the levels of HIV medications are reduced, people with HIV can "fail" their treatment. The virus can multiply when the drug levels are too low and the medications can stop working. We need to be sure that antacids will not cause this problem with raltegravir.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing raltegravir and antacid in people with HIV Infections, run by University of Colorado, Denver 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 9 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 28 Jun 2017. 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 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.

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?

Raltegravir AUC with and without an antacid (time frame: 0-48 hours). 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 28 Jun 2017.
