    Measured: Week 48

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Stability in the plasma levels of Lopinavir/ritonavir during all study visits

    Determination of plasma concentrations of the study drug at weeks 4, 8, 12, 16, 24, 36 and 48

    Measured: Weeks 4, 8, 12, 16, 24, 36 and 48

  2. Tolerability

    Possible Adverse Events will be collected in all study visits and laboratory tests will also be performed in all study visits (weeks 4, 8, 12, 16, 24, 36 and 48)

    Measured: Weeks 4, 8, 12, 16, 24, 36 and 48

  3. Adherence

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Lopinavir/ritonavir 800 mg / 200mg in people with HIV, run by Daniel Podzamczer at 2 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 5 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 6 Oct 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 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?

plasma viral load <40 copies/mL (time frame: Week 48). 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 6 Oct 2016.
