About this study

Radiolabelling broadly neutralizing anti-HIV antibody 3BNC117 with a Copper-64 radio isotope for infusion into people with HIV followed by MRI/PET scanning to detect HIV in vivo.

Read the detailed description

This study aims to develop a method to accurately image the size and location of HIV persistence in HIV-infected individuals. The project aims to combine the broadly neutralizing anti-HIV antibody 3BNC117 with a Copper-64 radio isotope for use in a clinical trial.

The clinical trial has three different stages. The first stage is to recruit two HIV uninfected individuals and determine the safety of 3 mg/kg of 3BNC117 combined with Copper-64 and MRI/PET scanning at 1, 24 and 48 hours post infusion. The second stage is to examine the distribution on MRI/PET of the 3BNC117-Copper-64 combination in four HIV-infected individuals with viremia who are not receiving antiretroviral therapy. The final stage is to perform the same intervention in aviremic people with HIV receiving antiretroviral therapy.

What is being measured

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

  1. Comparisons of PET standard uptake values in regions of interest (gastrointestinal tract, lymph node groups, genital tract, and spleen) between the three groups (uninfected, viremic and aviremic infected)

    To determine if there is increased PET uptake in HIV viremic and aviremic groups as compared to uninfected group

    Measured: 2 days

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Safety and tolerability (adverse events and assessment of laboratory parameters)

    Reporting of adverse events and assessment of laboratory parameters

    Measured: 2 weeks

  2. Comparisons of PET standard uptake values in regions of interest within each individual to radioactivity levels in a homogenous area of muscle to generate target to muscle ratios.

    To determine whether HIV positive participants display organ specific binding of the anti-HIV antibody

    Measured: 2 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing 3BNC117-Copper-64 in people with HIV, run by Bayside Health at 1 site in Australia.

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 25 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 Jun 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Australia. 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 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.

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 is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Comparisons of PET standard uptake values in regions of interest (gastrointestinal tract, lymph node groups, genital tract, and spleen) between the three groups (uninfected, viremic and aviremic infected) (time frame: 2 days). 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 24 Jun 2020.
