Study to Evaluate Changes in CD4 on Replacing TDF With ABC or DDI+TDF With ABC+3TC
Study of Changes in CD4 Lymphocyte Count in Patients With a HAART Regimen Including DDI + Tenofovir and With Viral Suppression Following the Replacement of Tenofovir With Abacavir Once Daily or Following the Double Replacement of DDI + Tenofovir With Abacavir + Lamivudine in a Single Tablet

Brief Summary
The study aims to ascertain whether the sole replacement of tenofovir with abacavir once a day improves the immunological response obtained with tenofovir + ddI or whether it is better to perform a double replacement of tenofovir and ddI with abacavir + lamivudine (joint formulation) in a single daily dose to achieve these objectives.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Proportion of patients that increase their number of CD4 lymphocytes with regard to the baseline.
At 12, 24, 36 and 48 weeks
Secondary Outcomes (6)
To evaluate the proportion of patients with viral load of HIV-1 <50 copies of the combinations studied during the follow-up period.
At 12, 24, 36 and 48 weeks.
Incidence of new clinical adverse events that appear .
during 48 weeks of follow-up
Evolution of the clinical adverse events that were already present at the time they were included in the study.
during the 48 weeks of follow-up
Rate of treatment drop-outs due to the appearance of adverse events
during the 48 weeks of follow-up
Incidence of new laboratory alterations that appear during the follow-up period (change in renal parameters, changes in lactate levels, modification of pancreatic enzymes, changes in lipid parameters).
during the follow-up period
- +1 more secondary outcomes

1
NO INTERVENTIONMaintain antiretroviral treatment
2
EXPERIMENTALChange tenofovir to abacavir and increase didanosine dose to 400 mg/day if weight is \> 60 Kg. or to 250mg/day if weight is \< 60 kg.
3
EXPERIMENTALChange tenofovir and didanosine to abacavir + lamivudine (600mg+300 mg/day in one single tablet).
Interventions
Increase didanosine dose to 400 mg/day if weight is \> 60 Kg. or to 250mg/day if weight is \< 60 kg.
Change tenofovir and didanosine to abacavir + lamivudine (600mg+300 mg/day in one single tablet).
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Age \> 18 years.
- HIV-1 infected patients.
- Patients on triple HAART therapy including ddI + tenofovir plus a PI or NNRTI for at least 3 months.
- Patients with an undetectable HIV-1 viral load (\< 50 copies RNA / mL or \< centre's limit of detection) over the last 6 months.
- Not be on treatment with immunosuppressives, such as: hydroxyurea, interferon, ribavirin or cytostatics.
- Not be on treatment with interleukin-2 or other immunomodulators.
- Women may not be of fertile age (defined as at least one year from menopause or undergoing any surgical sterilisation technique), or must undertake to use a barrier contraceptive method during the study.
- Signature of the informed consent.
You may not qualify if:
- Incapacity to give informed consent.
- Bad adherence or treatment interruptions over the previous 6 months.
- Prior exposure to abacavir.
- HAART Therapy including ddI at a dose of 400mg + tenofovir if weight \> 60 kg or ddI 250 mg + tenofovir if weight \< 60 kg.
- Suspicion of cross resistances to abacavir and lamivudine.
- Hepatic or pancreatic analytical alterations 4 times above the limit of normality.
- Presence of opportunistic infections and/or recent tumours (\< 6 months).
- Patients participating in another clinical trial.
