About this study

Official title: A Phase I, Open Label, Randomized, Single Dose, Crossover Study in Healthy Subjects to Compare the Oral Bioavailability of a Prototype Tablet Formulation of Darunavir 800mg(G002) to That of the Commercial 400mg(F030) Tablet Formulation Under Fed & Fasted Conditions, in Presence of Low-dose Ritonavir

The purpose of this study is to compare the drug levels of darunavir obtained after administration of a single administration of the 800 mg tablet (new formulation) to that following administration of two 400 mg commercial tablets formulation when administered under fed and fasted conditions to those also taking low-dose ritonavir. Darunavir is marketed for the treatment of HIV. The short-term safety and tolerability of darunavir following administration of a single 800 mg dose of darunavir given to healthy volunteers taking taking low-dose ritonavir will also be assessed.

Read the detailed description

This is an open label study, which means that all parties including the study doctor, the healthy volunteer and the sponsor will know at all times which treatment group the volunteer is in. This is a cross over trial, which means that every volunteer will be sequentially subjected to 2 different treatments. A total of 32 healthy volunteers will participate in this study. Volunteers will be divided over 2 panels of 16 volunteers each. Volunteers in Panel 1 will be randomly assigned to treatment sequence AB or BA. Volunteers in Panel 2 will be randomly assigned to treatment sequence CD or DC. During all treatment periods 100 mg ritonavir (rtv) will be dosed once daily on Day 1 to Day 5. In treatment A you will receive a single dose of darunavir (DRV) two 400 mg commercial formulation in the morning of day 3 after a standard breakfast. In treatment B you will receive a single dose of darunavir (DRV) 800 mg new formulation in the morning of Day 3 also under fed conditions. In treatment C you will receive a single dose of darunavir (DRV) two 400 mg commercial formulation in the morning of day 3 under fasted conditions. In treatment D you will receive a single dose of darunavir (DRV) 800 mg new formulation in the morning of day 3 also under fasted conditions. Treatment sessions are organized with 7 days between treatment periods. In each session, an extensive investigation of the levels of DRV and rtv in the blood circulation is planned. Levels of DRV will be assessed at 15 different time points, i.e. before administration of DRV 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 4, 5, 6, 9, 12, 24, 48 and 72 hours after intake of DRV. Levels of rtv will be assessed at 13 different time points, i.e. before administration of rtv on Day 3, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 4, 5, 6, 9 and 12 hours after intake of rtv on day 3 and before administration of rtv on Day 4. Standard Safety assessments (blood biochemistry and hematology, urine analysis, ECG, pulse rate and blood pressure) will be performed on Day1, 3 and 6 in each Treatment period. Two 400 mg DRV commercial tablet formulation (F030) single dose on Day 3 of treatment A and C; 800 mg DRV new tablet formulation (G002) single dose on Day 3 of treatment B and D; 100 mg rtv capsule once daily on Day 1 to Day 5. All intake are oral.

    Measured: Plasma levels of DRV in each session at 15 timepoints and plasma levels of rtv after intake on Day 3 at 13 timepoints

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. The short-term safety and tolerability of darunavir following administration of a single 800 mg dose of darunavir in the presence of low-dose ritonavir

    Measured: 9 weeks (this includes treatment, washout and follow up period and is excluding screening period of maximum 21 days before first medication intake)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing DRV commercial formulation/ DRV new formulation/ rtv 100mg tab in people with HIV Infections, 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 6 inclusion and 5 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 4 Sep 2013. 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?

Plasma levels of DRV 800 mg new formulation compared with 2x400 mg commercial formulation in fed and fasted conditions and in presence of low dose rtv (time frame: Plasma levels of DRV in each session at 15 timepoints and plasma levels of rtv after intake on Day 3 at 13 timepoints). 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 NCT01052883, 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 4 Sep 2013.
