About this study

Official title: Efficacy and Safety Evaluation of TDF-based Regimen in Thai HIV-infected Children

This study will assess the safety and efficacy of generic TDF from Governmental Pharmaceutical Organization (GPO) in HIV-infected children

Read the detailed description

TDF is a nucleotide reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NRTI) which can be taken only once per day and continues to have good efficacy even in patients who have resistance to other NNRTI in the absence of K65R mutation. TDF is a choice for patients with NRTI resistance, or those that require once-daily regimen to improve adherence. Currently, TDF has not been approved by the US FDA for children less than 18 years, but pediatricians has been using TDF in children who have treatment failure because of limitation of a more appropriate pediatric ARV. The Thai national guideline for pediatric 2009 recommend the use of TDF in children who have failed the first line therapy with multi-NRTI mutation and are more than 30 kilograms or have tanner stage 4 or more. However, the problem is that there is no pediatric TDF formulation. The available preparation of 300 mg tear drop tablet, if cut in half, may increase dosing errors, more or less by 18-37%. This will affect the blood level and/or toxicities. Therefore, the Thai Governmental Pharmaceutical Organization (GPO) has produced a generic TDF formulation that can be used in HIV-infected children. This study will assess the safety and efficacy information in children using this generic pediatric TDF formulation.

What is being measured

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

  1. viral load

    Number of patients who have viral load less than 50 copies/ml at week 48 and week 96

    Measured: week 48 and 96

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. renal status

    Number of patients with renal toxicity assessed by GFR and with proximal tubular effect

    Measured: weeks 24, 48, 72, and 96

  2. adherence

    Agreement between self reported adherence by visual analogue scale (VAS) pill count and TDM Sensitivity and specificity of self-reported adherence and pill count against gold standards of TDM and undetectable viral load

    Measured: every 3 months

  3. resistance

    Resistant mutations in patients who fail TDF-based regimen and response to new regimen

    Measured: every 3 months

  4. adverse events

    Proportion of patients who develop adverse events which are related to TDF and other ARVs

    Measured: weeks 24, 48, 72, and 96

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of HIV-infected Thai Children, run by The HIV Netherlands Australia Thailand Research Collaboration at 2 sites in Thailand.

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 2 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in Thailand. 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.

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?

viral load (time frame: week 48 and 96). 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 NCT01815255, 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 17 Jul 2020.
