What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of Participants who are Virologic Responders (HIV-1 RNA <400 Copies/mL) at Week 24

    Virologic responders are defined as participants having viral load (plasma Human Immunodeficiency Virus-Type 1 Ribonucleic Acid [HIV-1 RNA] levels) less than (<) 400 copies/milliliter (mL) at Week 24 (Food and Drug Administration [FDA]-defined snapshot analysis).

    Measured: Week 24

Secondary outcomes (9)
  1. Percentage of Participants who are Virologic Responders (HIV-1 RNA <50 Copies/mL) at Week 24

    Virologic responders are defined as participants having viral load (plasma HIV-1 RNA levels) <50 copies/mL at Week 24 (FDA-defined snapshot analysis).

    Measured: Week 24

  2. Percentage of Participants who are Virologic Responders (Plasma HIV-1 RNA Levels <50, <400 and <1,000 Copies/mL) at Week 48

    Virologic responders are defined as participants having viral load (plasma HIV-1 RNA levels) <50, <400 and <1,000 copies/mL at Week 48 (FDA-defined snapshot analysis).

    Measured: Week 48

  3. Absolute Value in Cluster of Differentiation 4 Positive (CD4+) T-Cell Count at Weeks 24 and 48

    CD4+T cell absolute counts will be determined at Weeks 24 and 48.

    Measured: At Weeks 24 and 48

  4. Change from Baseline in CD4+ T Cell Count at Weeks 24 and 48

    Change from baseline in CD4+ T cell count will be determined at Weeks 24 and 48.

    Measured: Baseline, Weeks 24 and 48

  5. Percentage of Participants with Grade 3 and 4 Adverse Events (AEs), Serious Adverse Events (SAEs), and Participants Experiencing Premature Discontinuation due to AEs Through Week 48

    Percentage of participants with Grade 3 and 4 AEs will be assessed. An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a participant participating in a clinical study that does not necessarily have a causal relationship with the pharmaceutical/biological agent under study. An SAE is an AE resulting in any of the following outcomes or deemed significant for any other reason: death; initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization; life threatening experience (immediate risk of dying); persistent or significant disability/incapacity; congenital anomaly. Percentage of participants who prematurely discontinued study due to AEs will also be analyzed.

    Measured: Through Week 48

  6. Percentage of Participants with Laboratory Abnormalities

    Percentage of participants with laboratory abnormalities will be reported.

    Measured: Up to Week 48

  7. Number of Participant with Clinically Significant Change from Baseline in Laboratory Parameters

    Number of participants with clinically significant change from baseline in laboratory parameters related to hematology, serum chemistry will be assessed.

    Measured: Baseline up to Week 48

  8. Emergence of Viral Resistance Through Weeks 24 and 48

    Resistance analysis will be determined using genotypic analysis at the time of virological failure (that is, 2 consecutive plasma HIV-1 RNA levels greater than or equal to [>=] 400 copies/mL through Weeks 24 and 48 of study treatment).

    Measured: Through Weeks 24 and 48

  9. Percentage of Participant with Treatment Adherence (95%) Based on Tablet Count up to Weeks 24 and 48

    Percentage of adherent participants as measure of treatment compliance will be assessed by tablet count.

    Measured: Up to Weeks 24 and 48

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Rilpivirine 25 mg and Tenofovir Disoproxil Fumarate (TDF)/Lamivudine (3TC) in people with Human Immunodeficiency Virus Infections, run by Janssen Research & Development, LLC at 5 sites in India.

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 5 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Oct 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 sites in India. 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 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?

The study was stopped early (reason given: High SF rate (less treatment-naïve subjects \& subjects with viral load \<100000). Reevaluation in scientific position in India after internal discussion.). Results are not available in the source record.

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 who are Virologic Responders (HIV-1 RNA <400 Copies/mL) at Week 24 (time frame: Week 24). 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 Oct 2024.
