About this study

Official title: Plasma and Intracellular Concentrations of Raltegravir and Etravirine Administered Once Daily (800 mg and 400 mg, Respectively) Compared With Standard Dosing (400 mg and 200 mg/12 h) in Patients With HIV Infection

Hypothesis: the intracellular concentrations of raltegravir (RAL) and etravirine (ETV) administrated as 800 and 400 mg once a day, respectively, are similar to those obtained with the standard doses of 400 and 200 mg/12h, respectively.

Objective: To analyze the plasma and intracellular concentrations of RAL and ETV administrated as 800 and 400 mg once daily respectively compared with standard doses of 400 and 200 mg/12h, respectively, and if they support its once daily administration.

Objective: To analyze the plasma and intracellular concentrations of RAL and ETV administrated as 800 and 400 mg once daily respectively compared with standard doses of 400 and 200 mg/12h, respectively, and if they support its once daily administration.

Method: Phase IV, prospective, open labelled clinical trial with a planned duration of 24 weeks in which 16 patients from Hospitales Universitarios Virgen del Rocío will be enrolled. A 12 hours pharmacokinetic profile (immediately before and after 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10 and 12 h) will be obtained after a supervised drug intake while taking RAL or ETV bid. Afterwards,the patients will take RAL or ETV once a day for 7 - 10 days. Subsequently, a new pharmacokinetic profile (predose and after 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 16, 20 and 24 h after a supervised drug intake) will be obtained.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Raltegravir and Etravirine in people with HIV-1 Infection and HIV Infections, run by Hospitales Universitarios Virgen del Rocío at 1 site in Spain.

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 1 inclusion and 4 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 8 Feb 2011. 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 Spain. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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?

Changes in pharmacokinetic parameters (Cmax, Cmin, AUC, t1/2, and Cl), both in plasma and intracellular, of RAL and ETV. (time frame: baseline and 1 week). 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 NCT01121809, 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 8 Feb 2011.
