Show all 16Show fewer

  • Based on the compliance diary, the patient had less than 100% documented compliance for 7-14 days of background Antiretroviral (ARV) (i.e., ZDV and ABC) medications before Day -5 to 0 (visit 2)
  • Use of any protease inhibitors (i.e., fosamprenavir, amprenavir, indinavir, saquinavir, lopinavir, ritonavir, atazanavir, and nelfinavir) within 6 months of enrollment
  • Patients who are co-infected with active Hepatitis B and/or C as determined by hepatitis serology.
  • Use of any anti-platelet medications (e.g. aspirin, dipyridamole, clopidogrel, or any over the counter anti-platelet medicine).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing Tipranavir capsules and Ritonavir capsules in people with HIV Infections, run by Boehringer Ingelheim.

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 12 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 Sep 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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 combined 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.

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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 was stopped early. Results are not available in the source record.

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?

AUC0-12h (Area under curve) of intracellular ZDV-TP (time frame: Up to 12 hours after drug administration). 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?
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 1 Sep 2014.
