Conditions
HIV-1 Infection
Being tested

What is being measured

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

  1. Measure bevirimat blood plasma concentrations to calculate the pharmacokinetic parameters of AUC, Cmax, Cmin, and half-life when bevirimat is administered as 2 x 100 mg tablets BID, 3 X 100 mg tablets QD, 4 X 100 mg tablets QD for 15 days

    Measured: 16 days

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Measure bevirimat blood plasma concentrations following the administration of bevirimat 2 X 100 mg, 3 x 100 mg, or 4 x 100 mg tablets after a standardized meal. The pharmacokinetic parameters of AUC, Cmax, Cmin, and half-life will be calculated.

    Measured: Day 15

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Bevirimat in people with HIV-1 Infection, run by Myrexis Inc. at 4 sites 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 7 inclusion and 12 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 1 Apr 2010. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites 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 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?

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?

Measure bevirimat blood plasma concentrations to calculate the pharmacokinetic parameters of AUC, Cmax, Cmin, and half-life when bevirimat is administered as 2 x 100 mg tablets BID, 3 X 100 mg tablets QD, 4 X 100 mg tablets QD for 15 days (time frame: 16 days). 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 1 Apr 2010.
