  • Ages 2 to 18 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child, Adult

Who may be able to join

  • Males or females 2 to 18 years of age Cohorts 1A and 1B, up to one month before 6th birthday at Baseline/Day 1 Cohort 2, up to one month before 12th birthday at Baseline/Day 1 Cohort 3, up to one month before 19th birthday at Baseline/Day 1
  • A female is eligible to enter and participate in this study if she is of:

  • Subjects must meet one of the following criterion:
  • Antiretroviral therapy (ART)-naïve or PI-naïve subjects (defined as having received less than one week of any PI and any length of therapy with Nucleoside Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitors (NRTIs) and/or Non-Nucleoside Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitors (NNRTIs)).
  • PI-experienced subjects (defined as having received greater than one week prior PI therapy with no more than three PIs). Prior RTV boosted PI therapy will be considered as only one PI as long as the RTV dose was lower than that recommended for use of RTV as an antiretroviral age

Who cannot join

  • Prior history of having received APV or FPV for >7 days.
  • NNRTI use within 14 days prior to study drug administration or anticipated need for concurrent NNRTI therapy during the treatment period of the study.

What is being measured

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

  1. Plasma Amprenavir (APV) AUC (0-tau[τ])

    Plasma samples were assayed for APV concentrations using a validated assay. The GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) Department of Clinical Pharmacology Modeling and Simulation conducted pharmacokinetic (PK) analysis of the plasma APV concentration-time data using a model-independent approach. As a measure of total drug exposure, the area under the plasma-concentration-versus-time curve over the dosing interval at steady-state (AUC[0-τ]), where τ is the length of the dosing interval, was calculated by the linear up/log down trapezoidal method. hr, hour; µg, micrograms; mL, milliliter.

    Measured: Week 48

  2. Plasma APV Cmax

    The maximum concentration at steady state (Cmax) was measured.

    Measured: Week 48

  3. Plasma APV Cτ

    The plasma concentration at the end of the dosing interval at steady-state (Cτ) was measured.

    Measured: Week 48

  4. Plasma APV CL/F Following Dosing Expressed in mg/kg

    Apparent clearance of drug from plasma following extravascular administration (CL/F) was calculated using the formulation: APV Dose in mg/kg units divided by AUC(0-τ). For FPV, doses were expressed in APV molar equivalents (50 mg of FPV = 43.2 mg of APV). Normalizing CL/F for bodyweight allows for comparison of CL/F across populations.

    Measured: Week 48

  5. Plasma APV CL/F Following Dosing Expressed in mg

    Apparent clearance of drug from plasma following extravascular administration (CL/F) was calculated as dose/AUC(0-τ). For FPV, doses were expressed in APV molar equivalents (50 mg of FPV = 43.2 mg of APV).

    Measured: Week 48

  6. Plasma APV Tmax

    The time to reach the maximum concentration (Cmax) at steady state is defined as tmax.

    Measured: Week 48

  7. Plasma APV t1/2

    The apparent terminal phase half-life (t1/2) is calculated as loge2/λz. The apparent terminal phase rate constant (λz) is the slope of the terminal portion of the logarithmically transformed concentration-time data as estimated by linear regression.

    Measured: Week 48

  8. Number of Participants Who Permanently Discontinued the Treatment Due to Any Adverse Event (AE)

    An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical investigation subject, temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product, whether or not considered related to the medicinal product.

    Measured: Week 48

  9. Change From Baseline in Triglycerides, Total Cholesterol, Low-density Lipoprotein (LDL) Cholesterol, High-density Lipoprotein (HDL) Cholesterol, and Serum Glucose at Week 48

    Blood samples of all participants were collected under fasting conditions for the evaluation of triglycerides, total cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, and serum glucose. Clinical chemistry analyses were carried out using the observed analysis strategy. Change from Baseline in triglycerides, total cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, and serum glucose was calculated as the value at Week 48 minus the value at Baseline.

    Measured: Baseline (Day 1) and Week 48

  10. Change From Baseline in Serum Lipase at Week 48

    Blood samples of all participants were collected for the evaluation of serum lipase. Clinical chemistry analyses were carried out using the observed analysis strategy. Change from Baseline in serum lipase was calculated as the value at Week 48 minus the value at Baseline.

    Measured: Baseline (Day 1) and Week 48

  11. Change From Baseline in Aspartate Aminotransferase (AST) and Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT) at Week 48

    Blood samples of the participants were collected for the evaluation of AST and ALT. Clinical chemistry analyses were carried out using the observed analysis strategy. Change from Baseline in AST and ALT was calculated as the value at Week 48 minus the value at Baseline.

    Measured: Baseline (Day 1) and Week 48

  12. Number of Participants With Treatment-emergent (TE) Grade 3/4 Clinical Chemistry Laboratory Abnormalities

    A toxicity was considered TE if it was > than the Baseline grade, and if it was observed on/after the date of the first dose of study drug (SD), and on/before the date of the last dose of SD. Leucopenia is the decrease in the number of leucocytes (white blood cells [WBCs]); neutropenia is the decrease in the number of neutrophils (type of WBCs). Per the Division of AIDS Table for Grading the Severity of Adult and Pediatric AEs: Grade 3 is "severe"; Grade 4 is "potentially life-threatening." ULN, upper limit of normal; LDL, low-density lipoprotein; PC, platelet count.

    Measured: Baseline (Day 1) until Week 48

Secondary outcomes (28)
  1. Plasma Ritonavir (RTV) AUC (0-τ)

  22. Change From Baseline in the Percentage of Total Lymphocytes (TLs) That Are CD4+ Cells at Weeks 2, 12, 24, and 48

    Blood samples of participants were collected for the measurement of the percentage of total lymphocytes that are CD4+ cells. Observed analysis was used for the summary of proportion endpoints using viral load data. Change from Baseline in percentage was calculated as the value at Weeks 2, 12, 24, and 48 minus the value at Baseline.

    Measured: Baseline and Week 2, 12, 24, 48

  23. Number of Confirmed Virologic Failure Participants (Par.) With Treatment-emergent HIV Genotypic Resistance in Reverse Transcriptase and Protease

    A blood sample was drawn for par. failing to respond to therapy, and the mutations present in the virus were identified. For each par., the mutations found at the time of failure were compared with any mutations found in the blood sample at baseline. New International AIDS Society-USA defined resistance mutations that developed at the time of failure were tabulated by drug class. VF, virologic failure; NRTI, nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor; NNRTI, non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor; PI, protease inhibitor. Par. are grouped by study arm and prior therapy experience.

    Measured: Week 48

  24. Number of Confirmed Virologic Failure Participants (Par.) Since the Week 48 Analysis With Treatment-emergent HIV Genotypic Resistance in Reverse Transcriptase and Protease

    A blood sample was drawn for par. remaining in the study after Week 48 and failing to respond to therapy, and the mutations present in the virus were identified. For each par., the mutations found at the time of failure were compared with any mutations found in the blood sample at baseline. New International AIDS Society-USA defined resistance mutations that developed at the time of failure were tabulated by drug class. VF, virologic failure; NRTI, nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor; NNRTI, non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor; PI, protease inhibitor. Par. are grouped by study arm and prior therapy experience.

    Measured: After Week 48 through Week 240

  25. Number of Confirmed Virologic Failure Participants (Par.) With Treatment-emergent Reductions in Drug Susceptibility (DS)

    A blood sample was drawn for par. failing to respond to therapy, and changes in DS for HIV isolated from the par. for each drug used in the study were assessed. The changes in DS detected by phenotypic assay in virus from the sample collected at the time of failure was compared with DS in the virus from the blood sample at baseline. Par. are grouped by study arm and prior therapy experience. DS is the state of HIV being susceptible to the antiretroviral agent (the virus can be inhibited by the drug). Reduced DS (i.e., HIV is resistant to the antiretroviral agent) can lead to treatment failure.

    Measured: Baseline through 48 Weeks

  26. Number of Confirmed Virologic Failure Participants (Par.) Since the Week 48 Analysis With Treatment-emergent Reductions in Drug Susceptibility (DS)

    A blood sample was drawn for par. remaining in the study after Week 48 and failing to respond to therapy, and changes in DS for HIV isolated from the par. for each drug used in the study were assessed. The changes in DS detected by phenotypic assay in virus from the sample collected at the time of failure was compared with DS in the virus from the blood sample at baseline. Par. are grouped by study arm and prior therapy experience. DS is the state of HIV being susceptible to the antiretroviral agent (the virus can be inhibited by the drug). Reduced DS (i.e., HIV is resistant to the antiretroviral agent) can lead to treatment failure.

    Measured: Week 60 through Week 240

  27. Number of Participants Reporting Perfect Adherence Over the 3 Days Prior to the Study Visits at Weeks 2, 12, 24, and 48 as Assessed by Study Coordinator Using the Pediatric AIDS Clinical Trials Group (PACTG) Adherence Questionnaire

    The PACTG Adherence Questionnaire records individual study drugs, the expected number of doses/24 hour period, and the number of doses missed in the 3 days prior to the study visit. Responses were summarized by age cohort, study drug, treatment regimen, and visit for exploratory analysis only.

    Measured: Weeks 2, 12, 24, and 48

  28. Correlation Between Plasma APV Exposure and Plasma vRNA, CD4+ Cell Counts, and the Occurrence of Adverse Events

    No formal analysis has been performed or is planned to correlate plasma APV PK with efficacy and safety outcomes.

    Measured: Week 48

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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

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?

Plasma Amprenavir (APV) AUC (0-tau[τ]) (time frame: Week 48). The study lists 12 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

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?
