About this study

Official title: A Pilot Study to Evaluate the Effectiveness of a Tenofovir Raltegravir Switch in Resolving Tenofovir Induced Proteinuria in HIV Infected Individuals With Undetectable HIV Viral Loads

The study is designed to evaluate the proportion of patients with tenofovir induced proteinuria that will resolve their proteinuria when the tenofovir containing nucleoside/nucleotide backbone is switched to a raltegravir backbone. Common HIV treatment regimens contain nucleoside/nucleotide combinations that may have long-term side effects including nephrotoxicity. Switching these backbones out for an integrase inhibitor based regimen has not been systematically evaluated.

Hypothesis: Proteinuria developing during treatment with tenofovir improves or resolves when tenofovir is switched out with raltegravir. Switching to a nuc- sparing regimen, containing raltegravir and a boosted protease inhibitor in patients without preexisting protease inhibitor mutations is safe and does not lead to virologic failure

As described in the brief summary, this is a pilot study to evaluate for improvements in proteinuria when switched off from Tenofovir

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing change from tenofovir to raltegravir in people with HIV Infections and Proteinuria, run by Metropolis Medical.

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 7 inclusion and 7 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 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 12 May 2015). 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?

Patients With Reduced or Resolved Proteinuria (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 12 May 2015.
