About this study

Official title: An Open-label, Roll-over Study With Rilpivirine in Combination With a Background Regimen Containing Other Antiretrovirals (ARVs) in Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1 (HIV-1) Infected Subjects Who Participated in Rilpivirine Pediatric Studies

The purpose of this study is to provide continued access to rilpivirine (RPV) for participants who were treated with RPV in a clinical development pediatric study with rilpivirine and who, at the time of roll-over, experience and are expected to continue experiencing clinical benefit from RPV treatment.

Read the detailed description

This is an open-label (all people know the identity of the intervention), multicenter (more than one hospital or clinical site work on a study), roll-over study to provide continued access to RPV for human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infected participants. All enrolled participants will continue to receive RPV in combination with an investigator-selected background regimen consisting of other antiretrovirals (ARVs). Participants will continue to receive RPV in this study until one of the following criteria is met (whichever comes first) as determined in the study protocol: they meet at least one of the withdrawal criteria, or the participant has been treated in this roll-over study for 4 years (48 months) or older than 12 years of age and can continue RPV treatment outside of this roll-over study by switching to locally available RPV (if commercially available and reimbursed, or accessible through another source [example: access program or government program]) or other locally available RPV-based regimens.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • RilpivirineDrug

    Also called TMC278, R278474

    Participants will continue to receive oral tablets of rilpivirine (RPV) 25 milligram once daily (mg qd) or a weight-adjusted dose, in combination with an investigator selected background regimen consisting of other ARVs.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of participants with adverse events (AEs) related to rilpivirine (RPV)

    Evaluation of long term safety of the treatment with RPV with a background regimen. An AE is any untoward medical event that occurs in a participant administered an investigational product, and it does not necessarily indicate only events with clear causal relationship with the relevant investigational product.

    Measured: Up to 32 Days from the last dose administered (Approximately 16 years)

  2. Number of Participants with AEs Leading to Discontinuation

    Number of participants with AEs leading to discontinuation will be reported. An AE is any untoward medical event that occurs in a participant administered an investigational product, and it does not necessarily indicate only events with clear causal relationship with the relevant investigational product.

    Measured: Up to 32 Days from the last dose administered (Approximately 16 years)

  3. Number of Participants with Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)

    Number of participants with SAEs will be reported. An SAE is any adverse event (AE) that results in: death, persistent or significant disability/incapacity, requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, is life-threatening experience, is a congenital anomaly/birth defect and may jeopardize participant and/or may require medical or surgical intervention to prevent one of the outcomes listed above.

    Measured: Up to 32 Days from the last dose administered (Approximately 16 years)

  4. Number of Participants with Pregnancies

    Number of participants with pregnancies will be reported.

    Measured: Up to 32 Days from the last dose of administered (Approximately 16 years)

  5. Number or Participants with Grade 3/4 Rash Regardless of Causality

    Number of participants with grade 3/4 rash regardless of causality will be reported.

    Measured: Up to 32 Days from the last dose administered (Approximately 16 years)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Rilpivirine in people with Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1, run by Janssen Sciences Ireland UC at 8 sites in 5 countries.

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: under way, not looking for participants, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Aug 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 8 sites in South Africa, Thailand, Uganda, Portugal, 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 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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 (AEs) related to rilpivirine (RPV) (time frame: Up to 32 Days from the last dose administered (Approximately 16 years)). The study lists 5 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 28 Aug 2026; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 1 Nov 2026.
