About this study

Official title: Pharmacokinetics, Safety and Tolerability of TMC278 in Subjects With Mildly or Moderately Impaired Hepatic Function

The purpose of this study is to investigate the pharmacokinetics (how the drug is absorbed into the bloodstream, distributed in the body and eliminated from the body) after a single dose and after repeated administration of TMC278 administered once daily for 11 days in subjects with mild or moderate hepatic impairment (impaired liver function), compared with healthy control subjects. Furthermore the short-term safety and tolerability (how well the body tolerates the drug) of TMC278 will be assessed.

Read the detailed description

Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected patients are routinely being treated with combinations of 3 or 4 drugs (highly active antiretroviral therapy [HAART]), to reduce the risk of viral resistance development. Development of new potent antiretroviral (ARV) drugs is urgently needed to prolong suppression of viral replication in subjects infected with HIV. This is a Phase I, open-label, parallel, controlled, sequential study to investigate the single-dose and steady-state pharmacokinetics, and short-term safety and tolerability of TMC278 in subjects with mild or moderate hepatic impairment compared to subjects with normal hepatic function. The trial aims to provide guidance on administration and dose recommendations of TMC278 in subjects with mildly or moderately impaired hepatic function. The study population will consist of a total of 32 male and female subjects between 18 and 65 years. Panel A will consist of 8 subjects with mild hepatic impairment and 8 healthy subjects matched for sex, age (± 5 yrs), and BMI (± 15%). Panel B will consist of 8 subjects with moderate hepatic impairment and 8 healthy subjects matched for sex, age (± 5 yrs), and BMI (± 15%). Treatment in Panel A and Panel B will be conducted sequentially. Subjects in Panel A will receive a TMC278 25 mg tablet once daily for a total of 11 days. Recruitment for subjects for Panel B will start after evaluation of the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetic data from subjects in Panel A. The anticipated dose of TMC278 to be administered to subjects in Panel B is the same dose as for Panel A (25 mg once daily for 11 days), but this dose might be adjusted depending on the results of Panel A.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing TMC278 in people with HIV and AIDS, run by Tibotec Pharmaceuticals, Ireland.

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 7 inclusion and 25 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 Apr 2010. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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

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?

The primary objective of this study is to assess the single-dose and steady-state pharmacokinetics of TMC278 in subjects with mild or moderate hepatic impairment compared to matched healthy control subjects.. 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 Apr 2010.
