Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 to 25 years
  • All sexes
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Adult

Study population: Persons with HIV-1 infection between the ages of 18 years, 0 days and 24 years, 364 days currently on a stable combination antiretroviral regimen (> 28 days) with FDA-approved antiretroviral combination regimens that include tenofovir plus atazanavir/ritonavir and at least one other active antiretroviral drug.

Who may be able to join

  • Age > 18 year to < 25 years.
  • Confirmed diagnosis of HIV-1 infection defined as one positive assay supported by documentation from the subject's medical record. The result may be any of the following:
  • HIV-1 DNA PCR,
  • HIV-1 RNA PCR (> 5,000 copies/ml),
  • Standard ELISA with confirmatory western blot performed after 18 months of age, or
  • HIV culture.
Show all 16Show fewer
  • CD4 cell count: no restrictions.
  • Viral load: no restrictions.
  • Current treatment with stable antiretroviral combination therapy with at least 3 active drugs for a minimum of 28 days. The treatment regimen will not be started or changed for the purposes of participation in this study. Rather, this study will measure kinetics of the drugs in patients who have been receiving therapy at the direction of their treating physician.
  • Regimen must be prescribed at FDA-approved doses for age.
  • Regimens allowed:
  • Atazanavir 300 mg po once daily plus ritonavir 100 mg po once daily, and
  • Tenofovir 300 mg po once daily, plus
  • At least one other antiretroviral medication prescribed at FDA-approved dose for age, excluding other protease inhibitors and NNRTIs.
  • Ability and willingness to be contacted by study personnel daily for the two days prior to the pharmacokinetics visit, to take antiretroviral medicines at the same time in the morning daily for at least 3 days (one of those days being the day of the PK study visit), and ability and willingness to return to the clinic the day after the observed administered dose for a follow-up measurement of plasma drug concentration.
  • Ability and willingness to provide written informed consent.

Who cannot join

  • Pregnancy.
  • Active therapy for malignancy.
  • Known presence of gastrointestinal disease that would interfere with drug administration or absorption.
  • Grade 3 or higher ALT or AST.
  • Grade 3 or higher Creatinine.
  • Concurrent treatment with another protease inhibitor or a non-nucleoside analogue reverse transcriptase inhibitor.
  • No evidence of anemia greater than Grade 1 according to the ATN Toxicity Table for Grading Severity of Adolescent Adverse Experiences (see Chapter 11 of ATN MOGO).

About this study

Official title: Pharmacokinetics of Once Daily Antiretroviral Therapy Regimens Containing Tenofovir and Atazanavir/Ritonavir in Adolescents and Young Adults With HIV Infection

The purpose of this project is to study the pharmacokinetics of a once-daily antiretroviral medication used to treat adolescents and young adults with HIV infection.

Read the detailed description

Once-daily antiretroviral therapy is being used to treat adolescents and young adults with HIV-1 infection. When new antiretrovirals (ARVs) are developed, information on kinetics is collected in adults, and then in children, but often the adolescent age group is under-represented in initial or even later pharmacokinetics studies, so specific data on appropriate drug doses to use in adolescents may be lacking; it is assumed that they should receive the adult dose. Furthermore, as newer drugs are used in combination regimens, more information becomes available on drug interactions that might not have been initially anticipated. This information is usually generated in studies of adults, with little or no specific information in children or adolescents. This is an open-label, 24-hour, single-dose pharmacokinetic study.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of HIV Infections, run by University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill at 12 sites in 2 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 16 inclusion and 7 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 28 Feb 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 12 sites in United States, Puerto Rico. 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?

Measure the pharmacokinetics of atazanavir/ritonavir and tenofovir (time frame: 6 Months). 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 28 Feb 2017.
