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   43851   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7283   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 purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (tenofovir DF; TDF) plus a genotype-guided optimized background regimen (OBR) compared to placebo plus OBR in the treatment of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infected antiretroviral treatment-experienced adolescents with plasma HIV-1 ribonucleic acid (RNA) levels greater than or equal to 1000 copies/mL.
    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.
    Background therapy
    All participants received a genotype-guided optimized background regimen (OBR) consisting of a minimum of 3 and a maximum of 5 antiretroviral agents (ARV) for the duration of the study.

    Blinding implementation details
    Participants were randomized to either TDF or placebo, plus a genotype-guided optimized background regimen (OBR) consisting of 3 minimum (min.) to 5 maximum (max.) antiretroviral (ARV) agents. Participants in the TDF group who experienced virologic failure (VF) during the randomized phase discontinued the study. Participants in the placebo group who experienced VF discontinued the randomized phase, and were eligible to enroll early in the first open-label TDF extension phase.

    Notes
    [1] - The number of subjects reported to be in the baseline period are not the same as the worldwide number enrolled in the trial. It is expected that these numbers will be the same.
    Justification: 3 participants who were enrolled but not treated are not included in the subject disposition table.
    [2] - The number of subjects at this milestone seems inconsistent with the number of subjects in the arm. It is expected that the number of subjects will be greater than, or equal to the number that completed, minus those who left.
    Justification: No participants randomized to TDF who discontinued the double-blind phase due to VF were enrolled in the 1st open-label extension phase.
    [3] - The number of subjects at this milestone seems inconsistent with the number of subjects in the arm. It is expected that the number of subjects will be greater than, or equal to the number that completed, minus those who left.
    Justification: 10 participants randomized to placebo experienced VF, discontinued the double-blind phase, and enrolled early in the 1st open-label TDF extension phase.

    DAVG24 was defined as the time-weighted average between the first postbaseline value through the last value up to Week 24 minus the baseline value. DAVG24 was calculated using the trapezoidal rule with all available postbaseline data minus the baseline value. Data for participants who discontinued the randomized (double-blind) phase of the study early were included up until the point of study discontinuation (missing data not imputed). For the TDF and Placebo groups, only data collected during the double-blind phase are included.

    ITT Analysis Set. The Tenofovir DF and Placebo groups were analyzed using the last observation carried forward (LOCF) method (includes the participant's last available postbaseline value for missing data). The Placebo/TDF groups were analyzed using the missing = excluded method (participants with missing data were excluded from the analysis). For the TDF and Placebo groups, only data collected during the double-blind phase are included.

Response was defined as either -- A ≥ 0.5 log10 copies/mL decrease in HIV-1 RNA from baseline at 2 consecutive visits, or -- HIV-1 RNA < 400 copies/mL at 2 consecutive visits. - Viral rebound was defined as either -- Participants who achieved a ≥ 0.5 log10 copies/mL decrease from baseline in plasma HIV-1 RNA at 2 consecutive visits, who then subsequently achieved plasma HIV-1 RNA values ≥ 1.0 log10 copies/mL above their on-study nadir (lowest value) and/or plasma HIV-1 RNA values ≥ the baseline value at 2 consecutive visits, or -- Participants who achieved plasma HIV-1 RNA levels of < 400 copies/mL at 2 consecutive visits, and then subsequently had plasma HIV-1 RNA levels > 1000 copies/mL at 2 consecutive visits.

    Substantial protocol amendments (globally)

    Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes
    Date
    Amendment
    10 Oct 2006
    An independent data monitoring committee was added to participate in the review of the efficacy and safety profile for the study.
    21 Feb 2007
    The study was extended to 144 weeks with the addition of a 96-week, open-label extension period.
    04 Nov 2008
    The study was extended to 240 weeks with the addition of a second 96-week, open-label extension period.
    03 Sep 2010
    The study was extended for an additional 2 years. After completing the second 96-week study extension with open-label tenofovir DF, currently enrolled subjects at active sites who had not yet reached 18 years of age and who had shown benefit from tenofovir DF were given the option to continue receiving tenofovir DF for an additional 96 weeks. For subjects completing the extension phase, tenofovir DF was provided until the subject reached 18 years of age, until tenofovir DF became commercially available in the country in which the subject was enrolled, or until Gilead was no longer the exclusive seller of tenofovir DF in the country in which the subject was enrolled, whichever occured first.

    Interruptions (globally)

    Were there any global interruptions to the trial? No

    Limitations and caveats

    Limitations of the trial such as small numbers of subjects analysed or technical problems leading to unreliable data.
    Participants left the study for a number of reasons (eg, turned 18 years old, switched to a different HIV treatment regimen), which led to small numbers of participants analyzed at later time points, and the study was concluded earlier than planned.
