Clinical trials

The European Union Clinical Trials Register   allows you to search for protocol and results information on:
  • interventional clinical trials that were approved in the European Union (EU)/European Economic Area (EEA) under the Clinical Trials Directive 2001/20/EC
  • clinical trials conducted outside the EU/EEA that are linked to European paediatric-medicine development

  • EU/EEA interventional clinical trials approved under or transitioned to the Clinical Trial Regulation 536/2014 are publicly accessible through the
    Clinical Trials Information System (CTIS).


    The EU Clinical Trials Register currently displays   43862   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7285   are clinical trials conducted with subjects less than 18 years old.   The register also displays information on   18700   older paediatric trials (in scope of Article 45 of the Paediatric Regulation (EC) No 1901/2006).

    Phase 1 trials conducted solely on adults and that are not part of an agreed paediatric investigation plan (PIP) are not publicly available (see Frequently Asked Questions ).

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    • To evaluate the pharmacokinetics of saquinavir that, when boosted with ritonavir, provides a systemic exposure in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-1 infected infants and children 4 months to < 6 years similar to that which has been shown to be safe and effective in older children and adults. • To determine the safety and tolerability of saquinavir when boosted with ritonavir in HIV-1 infected infants and children 4 months to < 6 years of age.
    Protection of trial subjects
    The investigators ensured that this study was conducted in full conformance with the principles of the “Declaration of Helsinki” (as amended in Tokyo, Venice, Hong Kong and South Africa) or with the laws and regulations of the country in which the research was conducted, whichever afforded greater protection to the individual. The study adhered fully to the principles outlined in “Guideline for Good Clinical Practice” ICH Tripartite Guideline (January 1997) or with local law if it afforded greater protection to the participant. In countries where a “Guideline for Good Clinical Practice” existed, Roche and the investigators were to strictly ensure adherence to the stated provisions.
    Background therapy
    The participants in the study were allowed to take >= 2 background antiretroviral (ARV) regimen. Background ARVs included nucleosides (nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor) and could also include ritonavir boosted lopinavir (LPV/r), as deemed appropriate by the investigator, considering the participant’s prior history as well as the participant’s viral resistance assessed at screening. If LPV/r was used, the total dose of ritonavir (including ritonavir that was co-formulated with lopinavir) was specified. The background ARVs was revised when initiating saquinavir and ritonavir, or remained unchanged from prestudy, as per the judgment of the investigator. Background ARVs were changed during the course of the study as needed for toxicity management or if the participant’s virological or immunological response was insufficient.

    Recruitment
    Recruitment details
    A total of 18 participants were recruited from 8 centers in Argentina (3 centers), Spain (1 center) and Thailand (4 centers). This study was conducted between May 20, 2008 and March 11, 2010.

    Pre-assignment
    Screening details
    Participants were HIV infected infants and young children who met the eligibility criteria were stratified into 2 groups - low age group (>= 4 months to <2 years) and high age group (>= 2 years to <6 years). Participants commenced treatment with saquinavir and ritonavir along with background antiretroviral (ARV) regimen.

    Arm description
    Participants (infants >= 4 months to <2 years old) received saquinavir at a dose of 50 milligram per kilogram (mg/Kg) twice a day (BID) and ritonavir at a dose of 3 mg/kg BID for body weight from 5 to < 15 kg, 2.5 mg/kg BID for body weight from 15 to 40 kg and 100 mg BID for body weight > 40 kg plus >= 2 background ARVs. After 14 days of treatment (or Day 28 for participants switching from an NNRTI containing regimen), saquinavir and ritonavir dose adjustments were made within the age group or for individual participants as deemed appropriate. The highest dose for saquinavir/ritonavir that was to be administered was not to exceed 1000 mg/100 mg BID. Participants received treatment for 48 weeks.

    Participants received saquinavir mesylate (Invirase ®200 mg hard capsules [HC] and/or 500 mg film coated tablet [FCT]) up to 48 weeks. For participants who could not swallow Invirase capsules, the 200 mg capsule(s) were opened and the contents of the capsule administered in a vehicle [sugar syrup (sorbitol syrup for children with diabetes mellitus or glucose intolerance), jam or baby formula] along with ritonavir oral solution. At home saquinavir and ritonavir was to be taken concomitantly with food. On days of sampling blood for pharmacokinetic study, dosing was approximately 30 minutes after the start of breakfast. For participants who could swallow capsules and or tablets no vehicle was required. The saquinavir mesylate 500 mg FCT was not to be crushed prior to administration.

    Participants received ritonavir (Norvir® 80 mg/mL oral solution) 3 mg/kg BID for body weight from 5 to <15 kg for up to 48 weeks. If a participant was prescribed Kaletra® (lopinavir/ritonavir) as part of the background ARV regimen, the ritonavir dose specified in the protocol for a child of a given weight was the total dose of ritonavir, including the ritonavir that was co-formulated in Kaletra. Thus, for participants taking Invirase plus Kaletra, the ritonavir included in the Kaletra was sufficient for boosting of both the Invirase and the lopinavir, and no additional ritonavir was to be given. At home ritonavir was to be taken concomitantly with food. On days of sampling blood for pharmacokinetic study, dosing was approximately 30 minutes after the start of breakfast.

    Change From Baseline in Cluster Differentiation Antigen 8 Lymphocyte Count
    End point description
    Change from baseline in Cluster Differentiation Antigen 8 (CD8+) lymphocyte count at 24 weeks and 48 weeks were presented by age group. Change from baseline in CD8+ lymphocyte count was derived as follows: Change from baseline = (CD8+ count at week 24/48) – (CD8+ count at baseline). A baseline collection was made if there was not already a value available taken within the previous 4 weeks. Baseline was on Day 1. The SAP was used for analysis of this endpoint.

    Participants received saquinavir at a dose of 50 mg/Kg BID and ritonavir at a dose of 3 mg/kg BID for body weight from 5 to < 15 kg, 2.5 mg/kg BID for body weight from 15 to 40 kg and 100 mg BID for body weight > 40 kg plus >= 2 background ARVs. After 14 days of treatment (or Day 28 for participants switching from an NNRTI containing regimen), saquinavir and ritonavir dose adjustments were made within the age group or for individual participants as deemed appropriate. The highest dose for saquinavir/ritonavir that was to be administered was not to exceed 1000 mg/100 mg BID. Participants received treatment for 48 weeks.
