About this study

Official title: PMOS: Kaletra Double Protease Inhibitors

Therapy with lopinavir/ritonavir (Kaletra) and one other protease inhibitor in Human Immunodeficiency Virus participants

Read the detailed description

This study is intended to observe and collect data on the usage, dosing, tolerability, and effectiveness of lopinavir/ritonavir (Kaletra) when used as part of a Nucleoside Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitors-free double protease regimen. Enrollment in the study was independent of the decision to prescribe Kaletra.

What participants receive

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

Study groups in NCT01075191
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
HIV-infected participantsHIV-infected participants taking lopinavir/ritonavir (Kaletra) and one other protease inhibitor. Lopinavir/ritonavir (Kaletra) dosing and administration according to the Summary of Product Characteristics (three 133 mg/33 mg capsules twice daily or two 200 mg/50 mg tablets twice daily).

What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of Participants With Human Immunodeficiency Virus -1 Ribonucleic Acid (HIV-1 RNA) <50 Copies/mL

    Viral load (number of HIV-1 RNA copies in the blood) was measured at baseline and scheduled study visits. A decrease in viral load is a measure used to assess the effectiveness of antiviral treatments. The percentage of participants with HIV RNA less than 50 copies/mL at each time point is presented.

    Measured: Baseline (Week 0), Weeks 4, 12, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, 84, 96, 108, 120, 132, 144

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Change From Baseline in Absolute CD4 Cell Count

    Increases in CD4 count are a biomarker for antiretroviral treatment effectiveness in restoring immunologic function. Changes in participants' CD4-positive (CD4+) T-lymphocyte counts were assessed by measuring the change from Baseline in the number of CD4+ cells at scheduled study visits.

    Measured: Baseline (Week 0), Weeks 4, 12, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, 84, 96, 108, 120, 132, 144

  2. Change From Baseline in Relative CD4 Cell Count

    Increases in relative CD4 count (the percentage of total lymphocytes that are CD4 cells) are a biomarker for antiretroviral treatment effectiveness in restoring immunologic function. Changes in participants' CD4-positive (CD4+) T-lymphocyte counts were assessed by measuring the change from Baseline in the percentage of CD4+ cells at scheduled study visits.

    Measured: Baseline (Week 0), Weeks 4, 12, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, 84, 96, 108, 120, 132, 144

  3. Change From Baseline in Absolute CD8 Cell Count

    Decreases in CD8 count are a biomarker for antiretroviral treatment effectiveness in restoring immunologic function. Changes in participants' CD8-positive (CD8+) T-lymphocyte counts were assessed by measuring the change from Baseline in the number of CD8+ cells at scheduled study visits.

    Measured: Baseline (Week 0), Weeks 4, 12, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, 84, 96, 108, 120, 132, 144

  4. Change From Baseline in Relative CD8 Cell Count

    Decreases in relative CD8 count (the percentage of total lymphocytes that are CD8 cells) are a biomarker for antiretroviral treatment effectiveness in restoring immunologic function. Changes in participants' CD8-positive (CD8+) T-lymphocyte counts were assessed by measuring the change from Baseline in the percentage of CD8+ cells at scheduled study visits.

    Measured: Baseline (Week 0), Weeks 4, 12, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, 84, 96, 108, 120, 132, 144

  5. Change From Baseline in CD4/CD8 T-cell Ratio

    The CD4/CD8 T-cell ratio, also known as the T-lymphocyte helper/suppressor profile, presents the number of lymphocytes in the blood positive for CD4 cells compared with the number positive for CD8 cells. Changes in participants' CD4/CD8 T-lymphocyte ratio were assessed by measuring the change from Baseline in the ratio at scheduled study visits.

    Measured: Baseline (Week 0), Weeks 4, 12, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, 84, 96, 108, 120, 132, 144

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Human Immunodeficiency Virus, run by AbbVie (prior sponsor, Abbott) at 17 sites in Germany.

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 2 inclusion and 3 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 18 Jan 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 17 sites in Germany. 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.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 30 Oct 2012). 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?

Percentage of Participants With Human Immunodeficiency Virus -1 Ribonucleic Acid (HIV-1 RNA) <50 Copies/mL (time frame: Baseline (Week 0), Weeks 4, 12, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, 84, 96, 108, 120, 132, 144). 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 18 Jan 2013; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 1 Nov 2026.
