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   44335   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7366   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 ).  
     
    Examples: Cancer AND drug name. Pneumonia AND sponsor name.

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    The primary objective of this study was to evaluate the non-inferiority of switching to emtricitabine/rilpivirine/tenofovir alafenamide (FTC/RPV/TAF) fixed dose combination (FDC) as compared to continuing the non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI) regimen of efavirenz /FTC/tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (EFV/FTC/TDF) FDC in virologically-suppressed HIV-1 infected participants.
    Protection of trial subjects
    The protocol and consent/assent forms were submitted by each investigator to a duly constituted Independent Ethics Committee (IEC) or Institutional Review Board (IRB) for review and approval before study initiation. All revisions to the consent/assent forms (if applicable) after initial IEC/IRB approval were submitted by the investigator to the IEC/IRB for review and approval before implementation in accordance with regulatory requirements. This study was conducted in accordance with recognized international scientific and ethical standards, including but not limited to the International Conference on Harmonization guideline for Good Clinical Practice (ICH GCP) and the original principles embodied in the Declaration of Helsinki.

    The percentage of participants achieving HIV-1 RNA < 50 copies/mL at Week 48 was analyzed using the snapshot algorithm, which defines a patient's virologic response status using only the viral load at the predefined time point within an allowed window of time, along with study drug discontinuation status. The Full Analysis Set included participants who were randomized and received at least 1 dose of study drug and were on EFV/FTC/TDF prior to the screening visit.

    Statistical analysis description
    The null hypothesis was that the percentage of participants with HIV-1 RNA < 50 copies/mL at Week 48 in the FTC/RPV/TAF group was at least 8% lower than the rate in the EFV/FTC/TDF group; the alternative hypothesis was that the percentage of participants with HIV-1 RNA < 50 copies/mL in FTC/RPV/TAF group was less than 8% lower than that in the EFV/FTC/TDF group. The difference in percentages and its 95.001% CI were calculated based on an unconditional exact method using 2 inverted 1-sided tests.

    Notes
    [1] - A sample size of 400 HIV-1 infected participants per treatment group would provide 95% power to detect a non-inferiority margin of 8% in the Week 48 response rate difference between the FTC/RPV/TAF group and EFV/FTC/TDF group. For sample size and power computation, it is assumed that both treatment groups will have a response rate of 89% (based on Gilead Study GS-US-292-0109), that a noninferiority margin is 8%, and that the significance level of the test is at a one-sided alpha level of 0.025.

    Change From Baseline in HIV Symptoms Index Score (HIVSI) at Week 48
    End point description
    The HIV Symptoms Index was a 20-item, self-reported measure that addressed presence and perceived distress linked to symptoms commonly associated with HIV or its treatment. Twenty HIV symptoms including Fatigue, Fever, Dizziness, Hand/Foot Pain, Memory Loss, Nausea, Diarrhea, Sadness, Nervous/anxious, Sleep Trouble, Skin Problems, Cough, Headache, Appetite Loss, Stomach Pain, Muscle/Joint Pain, Sex Problems, Change in Fat Deposits, Weight Loss, and Hair Loss were assessed. There were 5 possible responses (0 = I don’t have this symptom; 1 = It doesn’t bother me; 2 = It bothers me a little; 3 = It bothers me; and 4 = It bothers me a lot) for each HIV symptom. Total HIV Symptoms Index Score was derived from all 20 HIV symptoms by counting the number of bothersome symptoms. Total score would be missing if any of the individual items were missing. Participants in the Safety Analysis Set with available data were analyzed.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    15 Jan 2015
    • The inclusion criterion relating to documented resistance was expanded to include thymidine analog-associated mutations (TAMs). • The assessment window for a repeat HIV-1 RNA test if viral load was ≥ 50 copies/mL was changed to 2 to 4 weeks.
    09 Sep 2015
    • The study design was changed to allow subjects in the UK to participate in the open-label phase. • It was specified that pharmacokinetic (PK) blood samples did not have to be collected in a fasted state. • The inclusion criterion relating to women of nonchildbearing potential was corrected. • It was clarified that if initial DXA scans were not collected before study drug administration at baseline/Day 1 or if the scan was not acceptable, subsequent scans were not required. Also, if either the hip or spine DXA scan was not collected at baseline/Day 1, subsequent scans were expected to contain only the region (ie, hip and/or spine) that was scanned successfully at the baseline/Day 1 visit. • The management of changes in BMD by investigators was clarified.
    13 Apr 2016
    • The blinded phase of the study was extended from 48 weeks to 96 weeks, with corresponding changes to the study assessments. • A secondary objective was added to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of the 2 treatment groups through Week 96, and other secondary objectives were revised to include assessment at Week 96 (as well as at Week 48). • Secondary efficacy endpoints were added to calculate the proportion of subjects with HIV-1 RNA ≥ 50 copies/mL at Weeks 48 and 96, and the proportion of subjects with HIV-1 RNA < 50 copies/mL at Week 96, as determined by the US FDA-defined snapshot algorithm. The secondary efficacy endpoint for change from baseline in CD4 cell count was revised to include assessment at Week 96 (as well as at Week 48). • The definitions of the Full Analysis Set (FAS) and Per Protocol (PP) Analysis Set were expanded to include subjects who were receiving ATR prior to the screening visit. Further details were included on the exclusion criteria for the Week 48 PP Analysis Set. • It was specified that, on an ongoing basis, adverse events (AEs) would be reviewed for events that might meet the definition of a Stage 3 opportunistic illness of an AIDS-defining diagnosis.
    19 Mar 2018
    • Updated Study Design, Study Procedures/Frequency, and Duration of Treatment to include extension of open-label FTC/RPV/TAF FDC availability post Open-Label Week 48 for countries where FTC/RPV/TAF FDC is not yet commercially available. • Safety of TAF for bone mineral density is well established. Continuing. DXA exams in open-label phase would not provide a significant safety benefit so Bone evaluation was updated to clarify that DXA scans are not required after Open-Label Week 24 visit.
