Development of a Urine-Based Point-of-Care Test for Adherence to Antiretroviral Drugs
APTAMER
APT-POCT-01: An Open Label, Pharmacokinetic Study of Plasma/Urine/Salivary Drug Concentrations Over Fourteen Days Following Drug Intake Cessation, In HIV-Uninfected Healthy Volunteers Dosing to Steady-state to Further Development of Point of Care Diagnostic Testing
This is a single-center, open label study to identify adherence levels of commonly prescribed FDA-approved antiretroviral agents by tracking the decline of drug concentrations in plasma, urine and saliva following abrupt drug cessation in HIV-negative adults. Results from this study may provide support for development of a point of care urine testing device to monitor drug adherence.
