About this study

Official title: An Open Label Study Evaluating the Safety and Efficacy of Switching From Rilpivirine/Emtricitabine/Tenofovir Alafenamide in Combination With Dolutegravir, to Bictegravir/Emtricitabine/Tenofovir Alafenamide in Combination With Doravirine, in Male HIV+ Subjects > 45 Years With Multi-drug Resistant Virus and Virologic Suppression (Documented With at Least One Viral Load Result < 50 Copies Per mL) During the Last 6 Months on Current Therapy

The current study proposal is an open label observational trial for maintenance of virologic suppression, and is designed as a non- inferiority switch trial. The study will involve approximately 30 patients, which includes a PK arm of approximately 10 patients. The study will also include secondary outcomes of quality of life (QOL) and weight changes

Hypothesis:

Patients with prior NUC or NNRTI resistance (but not to rilpivirine or doravirine) will maintain their virologic suppression after a drug regimen switch from rilpivirine/emtricitabine/tenofovir alafenamide in combination with dolutegravir, to bictegravir/emtricitabine/tenofovir alafenamide in combination with doravirine. The switch therapy will avoid food interactions, and will be well tolerated by subjects.

What is being measured

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

  1. Viral Suppression

    Percentage of patients with viral HIV load (VL) <50 and <200 copies/mL at 48 weeks

    Measured: 48 Weeks

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Tolerability of Study Drug

    Tolerability of study drugs will be assessed by summarizing the number of AE/SAEs occurring during the study

    Measured: Week 48

  2. Change in Body Mass Index

    Assess changes in BMI due to treatment switch

    Measured: Week 48

  3. Work Productivity and Activity

    Improvement in work productivity and activity as measured by Work Productivity and Activity Impairment Questionnaire (WPAI). The range of the scale is 0-10, where 0 means it did not have an affect and 10 means it did have an affect.

    Measured: Week 48

  4. PK Assessment

    Subject plasma concentration-time data of bictegravir and doravirine will be analyzed using non-compartmental model (WinNonlin®)

    Measured: Week 4 (+/- 14 days) with time points at predose (-0.5 hr), 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 12, and 24 hours

  5. Adverse Events Assessment

    Assess AE's of any grade and relationship to the drug combination occurring in at least 5% of participants or more.

    Measured: Day 28, Weeks 12, 24, 36, & 48

  6. Wellbeing Improvement

    Improvement in well-being and sleep inventory as measured by The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI). Minimum score is 0 and maximum score is 21. A higher score indicates worse quality sleep.

    Measured: Week 48

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Bictegravir/emtricitabine/tenofovir alafenamide + Doravirine switch in people with HIV-1-infection, run by Quest Clinical Research at 1 site 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 5 inclusion and 3 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 5 Mar 2024. 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 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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 5 Mar 2024). 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?

Viral Suppression (time frame: 48 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 5 Mar 2024.
