About this study

Official title: A Randomized Comparison of Virco®TYPE HIV-1 Testing Versus Expert Interpretation of Genotypic Results for Control of HIV-1 Replication

The investigators seek to determine whether Virco®TYPE HIV-1 provides benefits equivalent to those provided by local expert review. The investigators propose that clinic patients of the Ruth M. Rothstein CORE Center who are having genotypic testing performed will be randomized in a 1:1 fashion to local expert review and to Virco®TYPE HIV-1. Results of either method will be shared with primary HIV care providers. Patient outcomes will be reviewed at a time point equal to or greater than 2 months and 6 months following the change in antiretroviral medications following the testing

Read the detailed description

Patients having some documented genotypic HIV resistance but having more than one fully active medication will be randomized to either local review or algorithmic review by VircoType HIV-1.

Being tested
VircoType HIV-1 genotypic interpretation, Local Expert Review of HIV Genotypic resistance testing

What is being measured

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

  1. Proportion of patients with viral load <1000 60days after HIV regimen change

    Measured: 60 days

  2. Proportion of patients with viral load <1000 180 days after HIV regimen change

    Measured: 180 days

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Proportion of patients with undetectable viral load 60days after HIV regimen change

    Measured: 60 days

  2. Proportion of patients with undetectable viral load 180days after HIV regimen change

    Measured: 180 days

  3. CD4 Cell count change in each arm at 60 and 180 days

    Measured: 60 and 180 days

  4. Proportion of patients whose regimen fails and who require repeat resistance testing at 180 and 360 days

    Measured: 180 and 360 days

  5. Comparison of number of active drugs predicted by each review method and number of actual active drugs prescribed

    Measured: 180 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing VircoType HIV-1 genotypic interpretation and Local Expert Review of HIV Genotypic resistance testing in people with HIV-1 and HIV Infections, run by Ruth M. Rothstein CORE Center at 1 site in United States.

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 2 inclusion and 1 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Jan 2010. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact David E Barker, MD (312-572-4503, dbarker@corecenter.org), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Proportion of patients with viral load <1000 60days after HIV regimen change (time frame: 60 days). The study lists 2 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 NCT00840762, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 26 Jan 2010.
