About this study

Official title: The Impact of in Utero and Breastfeeding Exposure to Tenofovir on Renal Function in HIV-exposed Uninfected Children in Cameroon: The PREVENT-IT Study

The goal of this project is to determine whether and how in utero exposure to Tenofovir affects renal function in HIV-exposed uninfected infants

Read the detailed description

There is a growing use of Tenofovir (TDF) in sub-Saharan Africa with the use of Option B+ for prevention of mother-to-child HIV transmission. TDF has been associated to renal function abnormalities both in macaques and HIV-infected adults and infants. Therefore concerns have been raised about its renal safety in exposed infants of women on Option B+. Data for HEU is sparse and routine measures of renal function (creatinine, proteinuria), may not be appropriate to detect TDF-associated renal injury early. The goal of our study is to assess whether TDF use in pregnancy and breastfeeding affects the function of the kidney function of the child. Pregnant women who consent during their first antenatal consultation to take antiretroviral drugs for PMTCT after testing positive, will be enrolled and followed till birth, for adherence using HPLC. Their terms infants who are HIV negative by DNA PCR at 6 weeks (HEU), will have urine collected at 1.5, 3, 6, 9 months. Using appropriate and more sensitive markers (RBP4, KIM1, NAG, β2M), proximal tubular function will be assessed in 159 HEU infants and same number of controls. Nutritional status and drug history data will be collected for both mother and child. RBP, KIM1, β2M will be measured using XMAP assay while ELISA will be used for NAG according to manufacturer recommendations. Creatinine, phosphates and urinary tract infection will be measured using standard methods. Values of these markers will be compared between the 2 groups. Results will confirm/infirm renal safety of TDF in pregnancy, improve prevention of long term renal injury through early detection, contribute to promote development of routine rapid diagnostic tests for acute renal tubular injury

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Tenofovir exposure in utero and during breastfeedingOther

    Exposed in utero and during breastfeeding to Tenofovir-containing antiretroviral drugs

Study groups in NCT04070482
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
HIV-exposed uninfected infantsThese are children to women who are living with HIV but who are not infected with the virus (HIV PCR results at 6 weeks is negative)
Receives: Other: Tenofovir exposure in utero and during breastfeeding
HIV-unexposed uninfected infantsThese are children born to women who are not infected with HIV

What is being measured

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

  1. Difference in urinary RBP, NAG, KIM-1and B2M levels at birth between neonates born to mothers living with HIV, exposed in utero to TDF and those born to mothers without HIV and not exposed to TDF

    In urine samples collected at birth from HIV-EU TDF-exposed neonates and an equal number of TDF-unexposed controls, RBP, KIM-1, B2M will be measured using multianalyte platform (xMAP) assay, while NAG will be measured using ELISA. Levels of these correlates of proximal tubular function will be compared between the two groups, adjusting for confounders

    Measured: Birth

  2. Difference in urinary RBP, NAG, KIM-1and B2M levels after birth and within the first year of life between HEU infants, exposed in utero to TDF and HUU infants, not exposed to TDF

    Trends in urinary RBP:Cr, NAG:Cr, KIM-1 and B2M will be tracked during and beyond breastfeeding between HIV-EU TDF+ and unexposed controls by conducting serial measurements of these markers at 6 weeks then 3, 6, 12 months using same methods described in outcome 1

    Measured: 0 to 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Renal Injury, run by University of Yaounde 1 at 3 sites in Cameroon.

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 9 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 29 Aug 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in Cameroon. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Difference in urinary RBP, NAG, KIM-1and B2M levels at birth between neonates born to mothers living with HIV, exposed in utero to TDF and those born to mothers without HIV and not exposed to TDF (time frame: Birth). 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?
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 29 Aug 2019.
