What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants With Human-immunodeficiency Virus- Ribonucleic Acid (HIV-RNA) < 50 Copies (c)/mL at Week 48

    HIV RNA < 50 c/mL is the most stringent measure of viral suppression (lowest threshold of assay) and indicates that a participant responded to treatment.

    Measured: Baseline (Day 1) and Week 48

  2. Maximum Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of ATV/RTV and LPV/RTV in the Presence of an Antiretroviral (ARV) Regimen Including TDF at Week 4

    Cmax was derived from plasma concentration versus time data.

    Measured: Predose, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24 Hrs post dosing with ATV/RTV and TDF all given every day (QD) and at predose, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12 Hrs post dosing with LPV/RTV given twice daily (BID) and TDF given QD.

  3. Area Under the Concentration-time Curve, in One Dosing Interval [AUC(TAU)] of ATV/RTV and LPV/RTV in the Presence of an ARV Regimen Including TDF at Week 4

    AUC(TAU) was derived from the plasma concentration versus time data. It was calculated from time 0 to 12 hours for LPV and RTV in the LPV/RTV regimen, 0-24 hours for ATV and RTV in the ATV/RTV regimen, and 0-24 hours for tenofovir in both regimens at Week 4.

    Measured: Predose, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24 Hrs post dosing with ATV/RTV and TDF all given QD and at predose, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12 Hrs post dosing with LPV/RTV given BID and TDF given QD.

  4. Minimum Plasma Concentration (Cmin) of ATV/RTV and LPV/RTV in the Presence of an ARV Regimen Including TDF at Week 4

    Cmin was derived from the plasma concentration versus time data.

    Measured: Predose, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24 Hrs post dosing with ATV/RTV and TDF all given QD and at predose, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12 Hrs post dosing with LPV/RTV given BID and TDF given QD.

  5. Time to Reach Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration (Tmax) of ATV/RTV and LPV/RTV in the Presence of an ARV Regimen Including TDF at Week 4

    Tmax was derived from the plasma concentration versus time data.

    Measured: Predose, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24 Hrs post dosing with ATV/RTV and TDF all given QD and at predose, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12 Hrs post dosing with LPV/RTV given BID and TDF given QD.

  6. Terminal Elimination Half-life (T-half) of ATV/RTV and LPV/RTV in the Presence of an ARV Regimen Including TDF at Week 4

    T-half was derived from the plasma concentration versus time data.

    Measured: Predose, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24 Hrs post dosing with ATV/RTV and TDF all given QD and at predose, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12 Hrs post dosing with LPV/RTV given BID and TDF given QD.

  7. Protein Binding Adjusted Effective Concentration (EC-90) of ATV and LPV When Dosed With RTV at Week 4

    EC90/50=concentration of drug inducing 90%/50% of its maximal response. Protein binding adjusted EC90 for ATV and LPV were derived from phenotypically measured individual EC50 values at baseline using the following formula: Protein binding adjusted EC90 (ng/mL) = scale factor × molecular weight of the free base × EC50 micrometer(μM)/ unbound fraction (fu). Scale factor relates EC50 to EC90 (value of 3 and 2 for ATV and LPV, respectively); fu: estimated unbound fraction of ATV and LPV in vivo (0.14 and 0.02 for ATV and LPV respectively).

    Measured: Predose, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24 Hrs post dosing with ATV/RTV and TDF all given QD and at predose, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12 Hrs post dosing with LPV/RTV given BID and TDF given QD.

  8. Inhibitory Quotient (IQ) of ATV and LPV When Dosed With RTV at Week 4

    IQ defined as Cmin at week 4 divided by protein binding adjusted EC90 values for the respective protease inhibitor (ATV or LPV) derived from individual participant clinical isolates.

    Measured: Predose, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24 Hrs post dosing with ATV/RTV and TDF all given QD and at predose, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12 Hrs post dosing with LPV/RTV given BID and TDF given QD.

  9. Cmax of RTV at Week 4

    Cmax was derived from plasma concentration versus time data.

    Measured: Predose, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24 Hrs post dosing with ATV/RTV and TDF all given QD and at predose, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12 Hrs post dosing with LPV/RTV given BID and TDF given QD.

  10. AUC (0-24) of RTV at Week 4

    AUC (0-24) was derived from plasma concentration versus time data. It was estimated as 2 times the AUC(TAU) based on 12-hour PK.

    Measured: Predose, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24 Hrs post dosing with ATV/RTV and TDF all given QD and at predose, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12 Hrs post dosing with LPV/RTV given BID and TDF given QD.

Secondary outcomes (59)
  1. Number of Participants With HIV RNA < 400 c/mL at Week 48

    HIV RNA < 400 c/mL is a less stringent measure of viral suppression (highest threshold of assay) and indicates that a participant responded to treatment.

    Measured: Baseline (Day 1) and Week 48

  2. Number of Participants With Confirmed Plasma HIV RNA < 400 c/mL at Week 48 (Defined by the Food and Drug Administration [FDA] Time to Loss of Virologic Response [TLOVR] Algorithm)

    TLOVR defines responders at Week 48 as participants with confirmed HIV RNA <400 c/mL through Week 48 without intervening virologic rebound or treatment discontinuation. Virologic rebound is defined as confirmed on-treatment HIV RNA <400 c/mL or last on-treatment HIV RNA <400 c/mL followed by discontinuation. Participants are considered failures in this analysis if they experienced virologic rebound at or before Week 48, discontinued before Week 48, never responded by Week 48, never received study therapy or had missing HIV RNA at Week 48 and beyond.

    Measured: Baseline (Day 1) and Week 48

  3. Reduction of log10 HIV RNA Levels From Baseline to Week 48

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing ATV, RTV and Tenofovi-Emtricitabine (TDF/FTC) tablet in people with HIV Infections, run by Bristol-Myers Squibb at 79 sites in 29 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 1 inclusion and 28 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 9 May 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 79 sites in South Africa, United States, Mexico, Argentina, Brazil and 24 more countries. 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 9 May 2011). 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 Human-immunodeficiency Virus- Ribonucleic Acid (HIV-RNA) < 50 Copies (c)/mL at Week 48 (time frame: Baseline (Day 1) and Week 48). The study lists 29 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT00272779, which also lists 5 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 9 May 2011.
