What participants receive

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

  • Lopinavir and ritonavirDrug

    The patients will take Kaletra (lopinavir200mg/ritonavir50mg)two tablets bid

  • Triple therapy with ritonavirDrug

    The patients will continue to take their usual triple therapy, as established in the summary of product characteristics

What is being measured

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

  1. Quality of Life comparison for HIV patients that start monotherapy with lopinavir/ritonavir (LPV/r) tablets vs patients with triple therapy which would include any boosted protease inhibitor (PI).

    Measured: 24 weeks per patients

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Virologic efficacy assessment for HIV patients on monotherapy based on LPV/r tablet vs triple therapy which would include any protease inhibitor

    Measured: 24 weeks per patient

  2. Immune response changes assessment for those HIV patients who start monotherapy with LPV/r tablets vs HIV patients on triple therapy which would include any protease inhibitor

    Measured: 24 weeks per patients

  3. Patient satisfaction assessment for HIV patients that start monotherapy with LPV/r tablets vs triple therapy which would include any protease inhibitor

    Measured: 24 weeks per patient

  4. Treatment adherence assessment for HIV patients who start on LPV/r monotherapy tablets vs triple therapy which include any protease inhibitor

    Measured: 24 weeks per patient

  5. Tolerability and safety assessment for the HIV patients who start monotherapy treatment with LPV/r tablets vs triple therapy which would include any protease inhibitor

    Measured: 24 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Lopinavir and ritonavir and Triple therapy with ritonavir in people with HIV Infection, run by Sociedad Andaluza de Enfermedades Infecciosas at 31 sites 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 6 inclusion and 16 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 20 Mar 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 31 sites 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?

Quality of Life comparison for HIV patients that start monotherapy with lopinavir/ritonavir (LPV/r) tablets vs patients with triple therapy which would include any boosted protease inhibitor (PI). (time frame: 24 weeks per patients). 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 20 Mar 2013.
