Trial summary

HIV-1 infected subjects that experience virological failure while on non nucleoside reverse-transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTIs), including those with the K103N mutation, are usually switched to a boosted Protease Inhibitor (PI)-based regimen or other antiretroviral (ARV) combinations.

About this study

Official title: An Open-Label, Multi-Centre, Randomised, Switch Study to Evaluate the Virological Efficacy Over 96 Weeks Of 2-Drug Therapy With DTG/RPV FDC in Antiretroviral Treatment-Experienced HIV-1 Infected Subjects Virologically Suppressed With Non-Nucleoside Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitors (NNRTIs) Resistance Mutation K103N

HIV-1 infected subjects that experience virological failure while on non nucleoside reverse-transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTIs), including those with the K103N mutation, are usually switched to a boosted Protease Inhibitor (PI)-based regimen or other antiretroviral (ARV) combinations. The same is true for subjects who need to start antiretroviral therapy and have acquired virus that is already resistant to antiretrovirals. These "second line" combinations are often associated with numerous issues that can have a potential impact on the quality of life (QoL) of these patients. Therefore a simpler and better tolerated alternative second line treatment option would be a useful tool for the clinical management of these patients.

The aim of this study is to assess the efficacy and tolerability of a dual combined therapy of Dolutegravir (DTG) 50 mg Once Daily (OD) + Rilpivirine (RPV) 25 mg OD in virologically suppressed participants with previous virological failure with NNRTIs and having the clinically significant mutation K103N. The secondary objective of the study is to assess whether a simplification of the treatment in terms of pill burden, long term metabolic toxicity and potential for drug interactions improves the QOL of the participants. The study will also evaluate DTG \& RPV concentrations in the blood plus changes in cell associated virus.

In order to compare the first line treatment (boosted PI and/or other antiretroviral combinations) and the DTG+RPV combination, two thirds of study participants will be switched to DTG+RPV immediately and receive DTG+RPV for 96 weeks. The other third will be switched after 48 weeks of continuing on their first line treatment and receive DTG+RPV for 48 weeks. All participants will then be followed up for a further 30 days. Participants will be recruited from sites across Europe, and randomised onto either arm of the study. After randomisation, participants will attend approximately 10 visits over the course of two years.

    Each component score of the PSQI ranges from 0 to 3, with 3 indicating the greatest dysfunction or disturbance to sleep. The seven component scores are then summed to obtain a global PSQI score, which ranges from 0 to 21.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Dolutegravir & Rilpivirine 2 drug fixed dose combined therapy in people with HIV-1-infection, run by NEAT ID Foundation at 29 sites in 6 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 20 inclusion and 44 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 Dec 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 29 sites in United Kingdom, Spain, Italy, Germany, France and 1 more country. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 24 Dec 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?

Number of Participants With and Without Virological 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 NCT05349838, 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 24 Dec 2024.
