About this study
Official title: A Phase 3, Randomized, Active-controlled, Double-blind Study to Evaluate Efficacy and Safety of Darunavir/Cobicistat/Emtricitabine/Tenofovir Alafenamide (D/C/F/TAF) Once Daily Fixed Dose Combination Regimen Versus a Regimen Consisting of Darunavir/Cobicistat Fixed Dose Combination Coadministered With Emtricitabine/Tenofovir Disoproxil Fumarate Fixed Dose Combination in Antiretroviral Treatment-naive Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1 Infected Subjects
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate non-inferiority in efficacy of a darunavir/cobicistat/emtricitabine/tenofovir alafenamide (D/C/F/TAF) fixed dose combination (FDC) tablet versus Darunavir/Cobicistat (DRV/COBI) FDC coadministered with Emtricitabine/tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (FTC/TDF) FDC in human immunodeficiency virus-1 (HIV-1) infected, antiretroviral (ARV) treatment naive adult participants.
Read the detailed description
This is a Phase 3, multicenter (when more than one hospital or medical school team work on a medical research study), randomized (study drug assigned by chance), double-blind (a medical research study in which neither the researchers nor the participant know what treatment the participant is receiving), active-controlled (study in which the experimental treatment or procedure is compared to a standard [control] treatment or procedure) study. The study consists of 5 periods: a Screening period, Double-blind treatment period, Single-arm treatment period, Extension period and a Follow-up period. Participants will receive either darunavir (DRV)/ cobicistat (COBI)/emtricitabine (FTC) /tenofovir alafenamide (TAF) fixed dose combination (D/C/F/TAF FDC) or DRV/COBI FDC along with FTC/TDF FDC. Primarily percentage of participants with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) -1 Ribonucleic acid (RNA) less than (<) 50 copies per milliliter (copies/ml) defined by snapshot analysis will be evaluated. Participants' safety will be monitored throughout the study.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Percentage of Participants With Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV)-1 Ribonucleic Acid (RNA) Less Than (<) 50 Copies Per Milliliter (Copies Per mL) (Virologic Response) at Week 48 Defined by Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Snapshot Approach
Percentage of participants with a HIV-1 RNA < 50 copies per mL were assessed using FDA snapshot approach which defines a participant's virologic response status using only the viral load at the predefined time point within an allowed window of time, along with study drug discontinuation status. The snapshot approach classified participants into 3 outcome categories: 1) virologic success (HIV RNA < 20/50/200 copies per mL at Week 48), 2) virologic failure (HIV RNA greater than or equal to [>=] 20/50/200 copies per mL at Week 48), 3) no viral load data in the Week 48 visit window (discontinued due to adverse event/death/other reason). The missing HIV-1 RNA is considered as non-response.
Measured: At Week 48
Secondary outcomes (54)
Percentage of Participants With HIV-1 RNA <20 and 200 Copies Per mL at Weeks 48 and 96 Defined by FDA Snapshot Approach
Percentage of participants with HIV-1 RNA < 20/200 copies per mL using FDA snapshot approach were reported. The snapshot approach classified participants into 3 outcome categories: 1) virologic success (HIV RNA < 20/50/200 copies per mL at Week 48 and 96), 2) virologic failure (HIV RNA >= 20/50/200 copies per mL at Week 48 and 96), 3) no viral load data in the Week 48 and 96 visit window (discontinued due to adverse event/death/other reason). The missing HIV-1 RNA is considered as non-response.
Measured: At Weeks 48 and 96
Percentage of Participants With HIV-1 RNA < 20, 50, and 200 Copies Per mL at Week 48 and 96 Defined by the Time to Loss of Virologic Response (TLOVR) Algorithm
Percentage of participants with HIV-1 RNA less than (<) 20, 50, and 200 copies per mL at Weeks 48 and 96 based on TLOVR algorithm were assessed. TLOVR requires sustained HIV-1 RNA < 50 copies per mL; confirmed HIV-1 RNA >= 50 copies per mL is considered as non-response (rebound); participant is considered non-responder after permanent discontinuation.

The eGFRcyst was assessed by calculated serum cystatin C (Scyst) using the equation: eGFRcyst mL/min/1.73m^2 = 133 * (Scyst/0,8)^-0.499 * 0.996^age [* 0.932 if female] (Scyst =<0.8 mg/L) and eGFRcr mL/min/1.73m^2 = 133 * (Scyst/0,8)^-1.328 * 0.996^age [* 0.932 if male] (Scyst >0.8 mg/L).

Clinical summary
The research question as the sponsor registered it. This describes what the study plans to test, not what it found.
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate non-inferiority in efficacy of a darunavir/cobicistat/emtricitabine/tenofovir alafenamide (D/C/F/TAF) fixed dose combination (FDC) tablet versus Darunavir/Cobicistat (DRV/COBI) FDC coadministered with Emtricitabine/tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (FTC/TDF) FDC in human immunodeficiency virus-1 (HIV-1) infected, antiretroviral (ARV) treatment naive adult participants.
Detailed description
This is a Phase 3, multicenter (when more than one hospital or medical school team work on a medical research study), randomized (study drug assigned by chance), double-blind (a medical research study in which neither the researchers nor the participant know what treatment the participant is receiving), active-controlled (study in which the experimental treatment or procedure is compared to a standard [control] treatment or procedure) study. The study consists of 5 periods: a Screening period, Double-blind treatment period, Single-arm treatment period, Extension period and a Follow-up period. Participants will receive either darunavir (DRV)/ cobicistat (COBI)/emtricitabine (FTC) /tenofovir alafenamide (TAF) fixed dose combination (D/C/F/TAF FDC) or DRV/COBI FDC along with FTC/TDF FDC. Primarily percentage of participants with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) -1 Ribonucleic acid (RNA) less than (<) 50 copies per milliliter (copies/ml) defined by snapshot analysis will be evaluated. Participants' safety will be monitored throughout the study.

Primary outcome
Percentage of Participants With Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV)-1 Ribonucleic Acid (RNA) Less Than (<) 50 Copies Per Milliliter (Copies Per mL) (Virologic Response) at Week 48 Defined by Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Snapshot Approach
Time frame: At Week 48
Percentage of participants with a HIV-1 RNA < 50 copies per mL were assessed using FDA snapshot approach which defines a participant's virologic response status using only the viral load at the predefined time point within an allowed window of time, along with study drug discontinuation status. The snapshot approach classified participants into 3 outcome categories: 1) virologic success (HIV RNA < 20/50/200 copies per mL at Week 48), 2) virologic failure (HIV RNA greater than or equal to [>=] 20/50/200 copies per mL at Week 48), 3) no viral load data in the Week 48 visit window (discontinued due to adverse event/death/other reason). The missing HIV-1 RNA is considered as non-response.

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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 14 Sep 2018). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.
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?
Percentage of Participants With Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV)-1 Ribonucleic Acid (RNA) Less Than (<) 50 Copies Per Milliliter (Copies Per mL) (Virologic Response) at Week 48 Defined by Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Snapshot Approach (time frame: At 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 NCT02431247, which also lists 5 linked publications.
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?
