About this study

Official title: Phase 1 Open Label Safety, Acceptability, Pharmacokinetic and ex Vivo Pharmacodynamic Study of TMC278 Long Acting (LA) Administered Intramuscularly to HIV-1 Seronegative Individuals

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, acceptability, pharmacokinetics (what the body does to the medication), and ex vivo (tested outside the body) pharmacodynamics (what the medication does to the body) of TMC278 long acting (slowly effective after initial dosage and maintaining its effects over a long period of time) when administered as an intramuscular (ie, in to the muscle) injection in adult participants who are seronegative for human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1).

Read the detailed description

This is an open-label (all people know the identity of the intervention), multi-arm (more than one treatment group), dose-ranging study (clinical study where different doses of study medication are tested against each other) to evaluate the safety, acceptability, pharmacokinetics, and ex vivo pharmacodynamics of a single and multiple intramuscular injections of long acting TMC278 to human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) seronegative (having a negative serum reaction) male and female participants. The study consists of 3 phases including screening phase, treatment phase, and the follow up phase (approximately 4 to 6 months after the first dose of study medication). In treatment phase, enrolled participants will be divided in to 2 arms, ie, Arm A (female participants) which will be further divided in to Arm 1A, Arm 2A, Arm 3A, Arm 4A, and Arm 5A with 12 female participants per arm; and Arm B (male participants) which will be further divided in to Arm 1B, Arm 2B, Arm 3B, Arm 4B, and Arm 5B with 6 male participants per arm. Safety evaluations will include assessment of adverse events, clinical laboratory tests, electrocardiogram, physical examination, and vital signs which will be monitored throughout the study. The total duration of study for each participant will be approximately 5 to 7 months.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing TMC278, Long acting (LA) in people with Healthy, run by Janssen Research & Development, LLC at 1 site 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 5 inclusion and 7 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 7 Apr 2016. 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 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 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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?

Number of participants with adverse events (time frame: Up to 280 days). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT01656018, 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 7 Apr 2016.
