NCT01458977

Brief Summary

This is a phase IV, multicenter, prospective, randomised, crossover, double blind, placebo-controlled and proof of concept clinical trial. All subjects fulfilling inclusion criteria will be randomised to add either TDF/FTC co-formulation (group A) or placebo (Group B) to their current PI/r regimen, i.e.: DRV/r 800/100 mg QD or LPV/r 400/100 BID. This will be followed by a crossover addition of TDF/FTC co-formulation or placebo. Randomization will be centralised in the CRO FLS-Research Support and will be stratified by DRV/r or LPV/r intake at baseline to ensure equal distribution in both arms. TDF/FTC co-formulation or Placebo will be provided in a double-blinded fashion, i.e.: neither the treating physician nor the patient will know whether the patient is receiving TDF/FTC or placebo. All subjects will receive dietary counselling to promote lipid-lowering diet provided by a specialised dietician throughout the study. The expected duration of the study for each participant will be 36 weeks. There will be 6 visits: screening, baseline and weeks 4, 12, 24 and 36.

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years - 65 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Age ≥ 18 years
  • Chronic HIV-1 infection
  • Antiretroviral treatment with either DRV/r (800/100 mg QD) or LPV/r (400/100 mg BID) monotherapy during at least 6 months prior to screening.
  • Fasting total cholesterol or LDL-cholesterol levels ≥ 200 and ≥130 mg/dL respectively, in the previous two consecutive tests obtained at least 4 weeks apart before screening.
  • Calculated creatinine clearance ≥ 60 mL/min, according to the Cockcroft-Gault formula.
  • Undetectable plasma HIV-1 RNA levels (\< 50 copies/mL) during at least 6 months prior to screening.
  • Adequate treatment adherence.
  • Absence of TDF or FTC resistances.
  • Written informed consent to participate into the study.

You may not qualify if:

  • Lactating, pregnancy or fertile women willing to be pregnant.
  • Concomitant use of any drug with potential drug-drug interaction with DRV/r, LPV/r or TDF/FTC co-formulation at study entry.
  • Concomitant use of any lipid-lowering drugs at study entry.
  • Prior documented intolerance or hypersensitivity to TDF, FTC, LPV/r or DRV/r.
  • Therapies including interferon, interleukin-2, cytotoxic chemotherapy or immunosuppressors at study entry.
  • Acute or chronic renal documented pathologies.
  • Documented resistance to any of the study drugs (either genotypic or phenotypic)
  • Life expectancy less or equal to 1 year.
  • Current alcohol or substance use judged by the investigator to potentially interfere with subject study compliance.
  • Subjects currently taking part in any other clinical trial using an investigational product, with the exception of studies where the treatment studied have stopped for more than 12 weeks.
  • Any other clinical condition or prior therapy that, in the opinion of the investigator, would make the subject unsuitable for the study or unable to comply with the dosing requirements.
