About this study

Official title: Efficacy of Simplification to Atazanavir/Ritonavir + Lamivudine as Maintenance Therapy in Patients With Viral Suppression. Randomized, Open-label 96 Weeks Non-inferiority Trial

A switch to a regimen consisting of ATV/RTV 300/100 mg QD + 3TC 300 mg QD in HIV-1 infected subjects in their first antiretroviral regimen and who are virologically suppressed on a regimen which consists of 2 NRTIs + any 3rd agent, is non-inferior to continue or switch to ATV/RTV 300/100 mg QD + 2 optimized NRTIs for maintenance of virological suppression.

What participants receive

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

  • Ritonavir boosted Atazanavir + LamivudineDrug

What is being measured

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

  1. To assess the non-inferiority of maintenance therapy with ATV/RTV + 3TC vs ATV/RTV + 2 optimized NRTIs

    Non-inferiority will be considered when the difference in proportion of efficacy between experimental arm (ATV/RTV + 3TC) vs. control arm (ATV/RTV + 2 optimized NRTIs) arm is less or equal to -0.12% after 48 weeks of treatment

    Measured: Week 48

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. To assess the non-inferiority of maintenance therapy with ATV/RTV + 3TC vs ATV/RTV + 2 optimized NRTIs

    Non-inferiority will be considered when the difference in proportion of efficacy between experimental arm (ATV/RTV + 3TC) vs. control arm (ATV/RTV + 2 optimized NRTIs) arm is less or equal to -0.12% after 24 weeks of treatment

    Measured: week 24

  2. To assess the non-inferiority of maintenance therapy with ATV/RTV + 3TC vs ATV/RTV + 2 optimized NRTIs

    Non-inferiority will be considered when the difference in proportion of efficacy between experimental arm (ATV/RTV + 3TC) vs. control arm (ATV/RTV + 2 optimized NRTIs) arm is less or equal to -0.12% after 96 weeks of treatment

    Measured: week 96

  3. To assess safety after 24 weeks fo treatment

    Frequency of adverse events, SAEs, AEs leading to discontinuations, death and laboratory abnormalities.

    Describe renal function, plasma Vitamin D and bone density changes (DEXA) from baseline and particularly in those patients receiving TDF at screening.

    Measured: Week 24

  4. To assess safety after 48 weeks fo treatment

    Frequency of adverse events, SAEs, AEs leading to discontinuations, death and laboratory abnormalities.

    Describe renal function, plasma Vitamin D and bone density changes (DEXA) from baseline and particularly in those patients receiving TDF at screening.

    Measured: Week 48

  5. To assess safety after 96 weeks fo treatment

    Frequency of adverse events, SAEs, AEs leading to discontinuations, death and laboratory abnormalities.

    Describe renal function, plasma Vitamin D and bone density changes (DEXA) from baseline and particularly in those patients receiving TDF at screening.

    Measured: Week 96

  6. To assess the incidence of resistance, and characterization of this resistance following a virological rebound

    Genotypic antiretroviral resistance profiles of subjects experiencing virologic failure (genotype) Plasma samples at Baseline and at each visit will be stored for additional resistance studies (i.e. cDNA)

    Measured: Week 96

  7. To assess neurocognitive function evolution

    Nerocognitive function evolution measured through a battery of standardized tests from baseline to week 48

    Measured: Week 48

  8. To assess neurocognitive function evolution

    Nerocognitive function evolution measured through a battery of standardized tests from baseline to week 96

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Ritonavir boosted Atazanavir + Lamivudine and Ritonavir boosted Atazanavir + 2 NRTIs in people with HIV Infection, run by Fundacion SEIMC-GESIDA at 36 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 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 12 May 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 36 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?

To assess the non-inferiority of maintenance therapy with ATV/RTV + 3TC vs ATV/RTV + 2 optimized NRTIs (time frame: Week 48). 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 NCT01307488, 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 12 May 2015.
