Primary HIV infection (indeterminate WB or previous negative HIV in the last 6 months.) 8. Opportunistic infection (CDC C category) or other disease and/or clinical condition that, in the investigator's opinion, would compromise the patient's safety or outcome of the study; including malignancy other than cutaneous Kaposi's sarcoma, basal cell carcinoma, or resected, non-invasive cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma, or cervical intraepithelial neoplasia 9. Subjects who in the investigator's judgment, poses a significant suicidality risk 10. History or presence of allergy to the study drugs or their components or drugs of their class 11. Treatment with any of the following agents within 28 days of Screening: radiation therapy; cytotoxic chemotherapeutic agents; any immunomodulators that alter immune responses or treatment with an HIV-1 immunotherapeutic vaccine within 90 days of Screening or exposure to an experimental drug or experimental vaccine within either 28 days, 5 half-lives of the test agent, or twice the duration of the biological effect of the test agent, whichever is longer, prior to the first dose of investigational product 12. Any acute laboratory abnormality at Screening, which, in the opinion of the Investigator, would preclude the subject's participation in the study of an investigational compound 13. Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) >5 times the upper limit of normal (ULN), or ALT ≥ 3xULN and bilirubin ≥ 1.5xULN (with >35% direct bilirubin) 14.

About this study

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the antiviral efficacy, safety and tolerability of dual therapy with 3TC and DTG as initial therapy among naïve HIV patients

Read the detailed description

The purpose of this study is to compare the antiviral efficacy, safety and tolerability of dual therapy with 3TC and DTG as initial therapy among naïve HIV patients.

Data collected in this study would inform the development of larger studies designed to evaluate metabolic and long term safety, impact on inflammatory biomarkers, efficacy, safety and cost effectiveness of this strategy among naïve and suppressed patients.

Primary endpoint:Proportion of patients with HIV-1 RNA levels of less than 50 copies/mL at week 48.

Secondary endpoints: Frequency, type and severity of adverse events and laboratory abnormalities, Proportion of patients with HIV-1 RNA <1000 copies/mL at week 12, Proportion of patients with HIV-RNA <400 at week 24 Number and type of resistance mutations in case of virologic failure (defined as a confirmed viral above 400 copies/mL after week 24 copies/mL or viral rebound at any timepoint) Changes in CD4+ lymphocyte count between baseline and 48 weeks, Estimation of the viral decay compared to historical data.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing dolutegravir, lamivudine in people with HIV-1 Infection, run by Fundación Huésped at 1 site in Argentina.

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 20 inclusion and 2 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 14 Aug 2017. 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 Argentina. 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?

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?

Efficacy Outcome Measure (time frame: 48 weeks). 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 NCT02211482, 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 14 Aug 2017.
