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   43846   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7282   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
    This project aims to assess the potential long-term advantages of switching HIV patients from the standard therapy (Atripla) to a different regime of treatment (darunavir 800 mg / ritonavir 100 mg). This will be assessed by measuring Vitamin D levels, calcium and phosphate homeostasis (balance), kidney (tubular) function, bone turnover and bone mineralisation, and HIV disease progression in all the patients who take part in the study.
    Protection of trial subjects
    Safety blood tests (FBC, Urea and electrolytes and liver function tests) and adherence review are incorporated into the visit schedule. Any abnormalities or concerns will be addressed immediately and reported.

    Evidence for comparator
    While Highly Active Anti-Retroviral Therapy (HAART) has dramatically reduced AIDS-related morbidity and mortality, the absence of HIV eradication with those drugs requires their prolonged used for a lifetime, making long-term toxicity a critical issue in the management of HIV-infected patients. Protease inhibitor (PI) monotherapy maintains plasma HIV-RNA suppression in a large proportion of patients already suppressed on a standard triple combination1. However, the more frequent occurrence of low-level viremia does not allow the use of such a strategy outside of clinical studies at this time. Darunavir has a high genetic barrier and low propensity to induce resistance-conferring mutations in cases of virologic failure. Early results showed non-inferiority with Darunavir/ritonovir monotherapy when compared to 2 NRTIs/ritonovir/darunavir [MONET and MONOI]. However, it remains unclear which patient populations might benefit most, and the potential risks and benefits associated with this therapeutic strategy remain to be defined. Hypothesis for this trial is that oosted Darunavir, given once a day as monotherapy, confers less toxicity than Atripla while maintaining undetectable HIV RNA levels

    Statistical analysis description
    For sample size calculation, an increase of 15 nmol/L in 25(OH)D in the DRV/R arm compared to ATP was considered clinically relevant. With a 1:1 randomisation, 35 patients per arm and a continue-switch design, the study had 90% power to detect this difference. In addition, the study had 90% power to detect a fall in ALP of 10 IU/L in the DRV/r arm, compared with ATP. These calculations allowed for 5 patients in the DRV/r arm switching back to ATP for tolerability reasons.

    Notes
    [1] - The study was not statistically powered to assess virological efficacy. In addition to the proportion of participants with two consecutive HIV viral load values > 50 copies/ml, an FDA snapshot analysis was performed at week 48. The frequencies of adverse events (AEs), AEs leading to discontinuation and laboratory test abnormalities were described by treatment arm. All analyses were performed on an intention to treat basis and conducted using Stata (version12).
