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   43865   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7286   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 ).

    Recruitment
    Recruitment details
    This study was a 148-week, Phase III, randomized, open-label, active-controlled, multicenter, parallel-group, non-inferiority study to assess the antiviral activity and safety of a two-drug regimen of dolutegravir (DTG) + rilpivirine (RPV) compared with current antiretroviral regimen (CAR). The study was conducted at 65 centers in 13 countries.

    Pre-assignment
    Screening details
    Total 641 participants were screened (131 failed), 510 participants were randomized and 2 participants withdrew before being exposed to study drug. The study included a Screening phase, an early switch phase, a late switch phase, and a continuation phase.The results presented are based on the interim analysis of the Late Switch Phase (Week 148).

    End point description
    An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a participant or clinical investigation participant, temporally associated with use of a medicinal product, whether or not considered related to medicinal product. Any untoward event resulting in death, life threatening, requires hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, results in disability/incapacity, congenital anomaly/birth defect, any other situation according to medical or scientific judgment that may not be immediately life-threatening or result in death or hospitalization but may jeopardize the participant or may require medical or surgical intervention were categorized as SAE. AEs were graded as per Division of Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (DAIDS) grading. Grade 1=mild; grade 2=moderate; grade 3=severe; grade 4=potentially life-threatening. Common AEs were those with >5% incidence for either treatment. This summary presents results as reported after all participants completed the Early Switch Phase.

    Blood samples were collected to evaluate alanine aminotransferase (ALT), albumin, alkaline phosphatase (ALP), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), total bilirubin, chloride, creatinine, glucose, potassium, phosphate, sodium, blood urea nitrogen (BUN), total carbon dioxide, lipase, creatine phosphokinase and creatinine clearance. Value obtained at Day 1 was considered as Baseline value. Number of participants who experienced maximum grade toxicity post-Baseline in clinical chemistry over 48 weeks was summarized. Clinical chemistry toxicities were graded using DAIDS grading table for grading severity of adult and pediatric adverse events. Grade 1=mild; grade 2=moderate; grade 3=severe; grade 4=potentially life-threatening. For all laboratory parameters, one assessment out of range was sufficient to be considered a chemistry toxicity.

    Number of participants with observed genotypic resistance for participants meeting virologic withdrawal criteria by Baseline third agent treatment class
    End point description
    For all participants who meet virologic withdrawal criteria, plasma samples with HIV-1 RNA level >=200 c/mL were to be analyzed in an attempt to obtain genotype data on as many samples as possible. Samples for drug resistance testing (genotypic) were to be collected at Day 1. Number of participants with genotypic resistance to CAR and to DTG or RPV for those meeting virologic withdrawal criteria in subgroups stratified based on Baseline third agent treatment class (INSTI, NNRTI, PI) were to be summarized. This outcome has not been analyzed as the number of participants was low (1 CVW per arm) and summaries by Baseline third agent were not provided. Therefore, data are not available for this outcome measure due to the insufficient number of participants with events.

    End point description
    Symptom Distress Module, also called HIV Symptom Index or Symptoms Impact Questionnaire, is a 20-item self-reported measure that addresses presence and perceived distress linked to symptoms commonly associated with HIV or its treatment. Symptom count is based on which of the 20 symptoms were present in participant. Symptom count is sum of number of symptoms present and ranges from 0(none) to 20(all). Symptom bother score is based on score for each symptom present ranging from 1(it doesn't bother me) to 4(it bothers me a lot). Symptom bother score is unweighted sum of the bother item scores for each symptom and ranges from 0(minimum) to 80(maximum). Last observation carried forward (LOCF) was used as primary method of analysis. Change from Baseline was calculated as value at indicated time point minus Baseline value. Day 1 was considered as Baseline value. Only those participants with data available at the specified time points were analyzed (represented by n=X in the category titles)

    Change from Baseline treatment satisfaction using the HIV treatment satisfaction questionnaire (HIV TSQ) at Weeks 4, 24 and 48-Early Switch Phase
    End point description
    HIV TSQ is a 10-item self-reported scale that measures overall satisfaction with treatment and by specific domains e.g., convenience, flexibility. Each item is scored 0 (very dissatisfied, inconvenient) to 6 (very satisfied, convenient). The items are summed up to produce a treatment satisfaction total score (0 to 60) and 2 subscale scores: general satisfaction/clinical and lifestyle/ease subscales (0 to 30). Higher scores indicated greater treatment satisfaction as compared to the past few weeks. The HIV TSQ was administered as a paper questionnaire. Total score, lifestyle/ease score and General satisfaction/CS have been summarized. LOCF was used as primary method of analysis. Value obtained at Day 1 was considered as Baseline value. Change from Baseline was calculated as value at indicated time point minus Baseline value. Only those participants with data available at the specified time points were analyzed (represented by n=X in the category titles).

    Change from Baseline treatment satisfaction using HIV TSQ at Weeks 56, 76, 100 and 148 - DTG+RPV early switch group through Early and Late Switch Phase [111]
    End point description
    HIV TSQ is a 10-item self-reported scale that measures overall satisfaction with treatment and by specific domains e.g., convenience, flexibility. Each item is scored 0 (very dissatisfied, inconvenient) to 6 (very satisfied, convenient). The items are summed up to produce a treatment satisfaction total score (0 to 60) and 2 subscale scores: general satisfaction/clinical and lifestyle/ease subscales (0 to 30). Higher scores indicated greater treatment satisfaction as compared to the past few weeks. The HIV TSQ was administered as a paper questionnaire. Total score, lifestyle/ease score and General satisfaction/CS have been summarized. LOCF was used as primary method of analysis. Value obtained at Day 1 was considered as Baseline value. Change from Baseline was calculated as value at indicated time point minus Baseline value.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    26 Feb 2015
    Protocol was amended to include additional pharmacokinetic visits for the first 20 participants in the non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI) subset who switch from Efavirenz (EFV) or Nevirapine (NVP) in the early switch phase and additional pharmacokinetic visits for all participants in the late switch phase, addition of stratification by planned participation in the dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) substudy, revisions to inclusion and exclusion criteria, revision to the definition of study completion, edits to the time and events table, revisions to suicidal risk monitoring section, and minor clarifications and corrections of typographical errors.
    08 Jun 2015
    Protocol was amended to include reasons for switch for Protease inhibitor (PI)-class aligned with other Antiretroviral therapy (ART) class switches, revisions to stratified analysis of the primary endpoint, revisions to virologic withdrawal criteria, references to study drug versus investigational product , and minor clarifications and corrections of typographical errors.
    27 Feb 2018
    Protocol was amended to include the introduction of commercially derived supplies of Dolutegravir (DTG) as IP; included statements to clarify that in Taiwan and Russia, the Symptoms Distress Module is not utilized as no validated translations are available. Two editorial revisions were made to aid clarity and correct a typographical error.
    03 Jul 2018
    Changes were made to the protocol to manage and mitigate risks following identification of a potential safety issue related to neural tube defect in infants born to women with exposure to dolutegravir at the time of conception. The description of the dolutegravir and rilpivirine Investigator’s brochures were updated to the current version. - The Risk Assessment table was updated to include language regarding risk and mitigation of neural tube defects. - Inclusion criterion number 5 was updated to exclude the double barrier method of contraception, which does not meet updated GlaxoSmithKline (GSK)/ViiV criteria for a highly effective method. Acceptable methods of contraception were clarified. - The Withdrawal Criteria were updated to include a reminder that females of reproductive potential who change their minds and desire to be pregnant or who do not wish to comply with the approved pregnancy avoidance methods, should also be withdrawn from the study. - The Time and Events Table. was updated to include a reminder for investigators to check at every visit that females of reproductive potential are avoiding pregnancy. - The References was revised to update the references for the dolutegravir Investigator’s Brochure and the rilpivirine Investigator’s Brochure to the current versions, and to include a new reference citing methods of highly effective contraception.
    10 Sep 2019
    Changes were made to the protocol applicable only in the Russian Federation. This country-specific amendment was to facilitate treatment of participants recruited in the Russian Federation with the DTG/RPV fixed dose combination (FDC) tablet to satisfy a regulatory requirement for data of participants recruited locally who have received the DTG/RPV FDC. The reference section was updated to include the current versions of the dolutegravir Investigator’s Brochure and the rilpivirine Investigator’s Brochure.
