About this study

Official title: An Open Label, Phase 2 Study of the Safety and Antiretroviral Activity of 3BNC117 in HIV-Infected Individuals on Combination Antiretroviral Therapy

This study evaluates the effects of four infusions of 3BNC117 in preventing or delaying rebound of viral load during a brief treatment interruption of standard ART, and its safety during a brief analytical interruption of antiretroviral therapy.

Read the detailed description

The proposed study is a Phase II, open label study to evaluate the safety, antiretroviral activity and pharmacokinetics of four infusions of 3BNC117 in HIV-infected individuals on combination ART and during a brief analytical treatment interruption (ATI).

Study participants will be administered four intravenous infusions of 3BNC117, administered at 30 mg/kg on day 0, week 12, week 24 and week 27. Antiretroviral therapy will be discontinued 2 days after the third 3BNC117 infusion (week 24), until week 36.

The ART regimen will be resumed at week 36 or sooner if plasma HIV-1 RNA level is ≥ 200 copies/ml, CD4+ T cell count drops < 350 cells/microliter, and results are confirmed upon repeat measurement during the next weekly scheduled visit. If plasma HIV-1 RNA level is ≥ 1,000 copies/ml, the participant will be asked to return for a repeat measurement prior to the next scheduled visit, and ART will be resumed if results are confirmed. ART will also be resumed early if the participant becomes pregnant or if otherwise clinically indicated. If ART is resumed before week 27, the fourth 3BNC117 infusion will not be administered.

Participants will be followed weekly during the analytical treatment interruption phase for safety assessments and for monitoring plasma HIV-1 RNA levels. CD4+ T cell counts will be monitored every 2 weeks during the analytical treatment interruption phase.

Participants may remain off antiretroviral therapy after week 36, with weekly viral load monitoring, if viral rebound does not occur by week 36.

All participants will be followed for a total of 60 weeks from enrollment.

What is being measured

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

  1. Rate of Viral Rebound at 12 Weeks After Interruption of Antiretroviral Therapy

    Viral rebound is defined as confirmed plasma HIV-1 RNA level > 200 copies/ml in two separate occasions

    Measured: 36 weeks

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Serum Level of 3BNC117 at the Time of Viral Rebound, Measured in Micrograms Per ml

    Serum level of 3BNC117 at the time of viral rebound, measured in micrograms per ml

    Measured: 12 weeks

  2. Time to Viral Rebound After Interruption of Antiretroviral Therapy

    Viral rebound is defined as confirmed plasma HIV-1 RNA level > 200 copies/ml in two separate occasions

    Measured: 36 weeks

  3. Number of Participants With Adverse Events as a Measure of Safety and Tolerability

    Number of Participants with Adverse Events as a Measure of Safety and Tolerability

    Measured: 60 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing 3BNC117 and Antiretroviral Treatment Interruption in people with HIV-1 Infection, run by Rockefeller University at 2 sites 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 9 inclusion and 26 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 16 Jun 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites 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 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 16 Jun 2021). 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?

Rate of Viral Rebound at 12 Weeks After Interruption of Antiretroviral Therapy (time frame: 36 weeks). 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 16 Jun 2021.
