About this study

Official title: A Phase 2a, Randomized Study of Romidepsin With or Without 3BNC117 to Evaluate the Effects on the HIV-1 Reservoir (ROADMAP)

The aim of this protocol is to evaluate the effects of romidepsin plus 3BNC117 or romidepsin alone on delaying or preventing viral rebound in ART-treated HIV-1-infected individuals during an analytical interruption of ART.

Read the detailed description

This is a randomized interventional phase 2a trial of 3BNC117 and romidepsin in human immunodeficiency (HIV-1) infected patients on ART, conducted as a multi-center study at the Department of Infectious Diseases, Aarhus University Hospital, Denmark, the Rockefeller University Hospital, USA, and the University Hospital of Cologne, Germany.

Participants will be randomized 1:1 in a non-blinded fashion to receive one of two regimens:

  1. Two treatment cycles each consisting of one 3BNC117 infusion (30mg/kg) + three romidepsin infusions (5mg/m2); or
  2. Two treatment cycles each consisting of three romidepsin infusions (5mg/m2).

ART will be discontinued 16 weeks after the start of the second treatment cycle (analytical treatment interruption, ATI) and subjects will be monitored weekly for safety and viral rebound. The targeted enrollment is 30 subjects (15 per arm).

Leukapheresis will be performed before and after the two treatment cycles to guarantee sufficient material to investigate changes in the reservoir after the interventions.

The following criteria will require resumption of ART:

  • CD4+ T cell-count <350 cells/mm³ (confirmed by repeat measurement)
  • 2 consecutive plasma HIV-1 RNA measurements ≥ 200 copies/mL or above their setpoint viremia (if documented)
  • Subject request
  • Continued ART interruption will, in the opinion of the investigator or study advisers, pose an unacceptable risk to the subject.

If HIV-1 RNA remains undetectable at week 36, subjects will be offered to continue off ART with close monitoring, in conjunction with the subject's primary medical provider, as long as HIV-1 viral rebound does not occur. ART resumption will follow same criteria as detailed above. All subjects will be followed for a total of 48 weeks from enrollment.

What is being measured

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

  1. Days to Viral Rebound During Analytical Treatment Interruption (ATI)

    Viral rebound is defined as HIV-1 RNA ≥ 200 copies/mL on 2 consecutive measurements during ATI. If viral rebound occurs, the date of the first measurement of HIV-1 RNA ≥ 200 copies/mL will be defined as "date of viral rebound

    Measured: Week 24 to Week 36

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Number of of Adverse Events (AE), Serious Adverse Events (SAE), and Serious Unexpected Serious Adverse Reactions (SUSAR).

    The occurrence of adverse events was assessed during each follow up visit. Adverse events of grades 1 or higher were reported.

    Measured: 48 weeks

  2. Change in the Size of the Proviral HIV-1 Reservoir

    Determined by total HIV-1 DNA and episomal HIV-1 DNA (2-LTR) in circulating total CD4+ T cells at baseline and prior to the ATI period (week 24).

    Measured: baseline and week 24

  3. Plasma HIV-1 RNA

    As measured by a routine clinical assay (Cobas Taqman; detection limit 20 copies/mL), a transcription mediated amplification (TMA)-based assay (detection limit 12 copies/ml) and/or a single copy assay (detection limit 1-2 copies/mL)

    Measured: 48 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing 3BNC117 and Romidepsin in people with Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV), run by Rockefeller University at 3 sites in 3 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 4 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 14 Jul 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in United States, Denmark, Germany. 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 14 Jul 2022). 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?

Days to Viral Rebound During Analytical Treatment Interruption (ATI) (time frame: Week 24 to Week 36). 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 NCT02850016, which also lists 2 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?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 14 Jul 2022; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 27 Oct 2026.
