About this study

Official title: Pharmacodynamics of Efavirenz 400mg in Treatment-naïve Chinese HIV-infected Patients in a Prospective Cohort Study

Evaluating the efficacy, pharmacodynamics, and safety of Efavirenz 400mg in treatment-naïve Chinese HIV-infected patients.

Read the detailed description

Treatment-naive HIV-infected patients are designed to enroll and receive efavirenz 400mg combined with tenofovir (TDF) and lamivudine (3TC) as initial antiretroviral regimens, and monitoring for 48 weeks, to evaluate efavirenz concentration, T-cell subsets, HIV RNA load, and neuropsychiatric tests with Hamilton depression scale (HAMD) and Pittsburgh sleep quality index (PSQI) at baseline, 4, 12, 24, 48 weeks.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Efavirenz 400mg+TDF+3TCExperimentalCombined antiretroviral therapy(cART) consisting of three regimens such as efavirenz, tenofovir and lamivudine is an effective measure for the treatment of HIV-1 infection.Efavirenz 600mg daily was approved by the US Food and Drug Administration in 1998. In this single-arm research, patients were treated with a reduced 400mg dose of efavirenz combined with tenofovir 300mg and lamivudine 300mg once a day. This treatment had to be maintained indefinitely due to the existence of HIV reservoir.
Receives: Drug: Efavirenz 400mg

What is being measured

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

  1. Viral suppression

    The proportion of patients with viral load less than 50 copies/mL

    Measured: 48 weeks

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Drug concentration

    The proportion of patients with plasma efavirenz concentration between 1 mg/L and 4mg/L

    Measured: 48 weeks

  2. Neuropsychiatric adverse events

    The proportion of patients with HAMD <8 and PSQI <10 (less neuropsychiatric adverse effects)

    Measured: 48 weeks

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Oct 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 China. 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.

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?

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?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04596488, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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?
