简要总结
This protocol describes a prospective, randomized, open-label, multicenter study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of switching from fixed dose abacavir (ABC)/lamivudine (3TC) to fixed dose emtricitabine (FTC)/tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) in virologically suppressed, human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infected subjects maintained on a ritonavir-boosted protease inhibitor (PI/r)-containing antiretroviral (ARV) regimen. Duration of treatment is 48 weeks.
详细描述
This protocol describes a prospective, randomized, open-label, multicenter study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of switching from fixed dose ABC/3TC to fixed dose FTC/TDF in virologically suppressed, HIV-1 infected subjects maintained on a PI/r-containing ARV regimen.
Subjects were stratified based on the PI/r (ie, lopinavir/ritonavir [LPV/r] versus other boosted PIs) in their regimen, and the presence versus absence of comorbidities at screening (diabetes mellitus or cardiovascular disease such as hypertension, coronary artery disease, hyperlipidemia, history of myocardial infarction, cardiomyopathy, valvular heart disease, congenital heart disease, stroke, peripheral vascular disease, or arrhythmias). Subjects were randomized 1:1 to switch to FTC/TDF+PI/r or to continue on their existing regimen.
Subjects received study treatment for 48 weeks.

入选标准
- •Adult (greater than or equal to 18 years) males or non-pregnant, non-lactating females
- •HIV-1 infected subjects currently receiving a ritonavir-boosted protease inhibitor and fixed-dose ABC/3TC regimen continuously for greater than or equal to 3 months

- •Positive HIV-1 serum P24 antigen
- •HIV-1 plasma viremia greater than 1000 copies/mL by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) or branched-chain deoxyribonucleic acid (bDNA) method
- •Detection of proviral DNA by PCR
- •(If confirmation of HIV infection is not available then repeat testing of HIV antibody will be required)
- •Two consecutive plasma HIV-1 RNA concentration less than 200 copies/mL. The two HIV-1 RNA determinations ensure that the subject has been virologically-suppressed for at least 3 months prior to study entry:
- •The subject must have a plasma HIV-1 RNA level less than 200 copies/mL using the AmpliPrep/Taqman HIV-1 Test or Roche Amplicor HIV-1 Monitor Test Version 1.5 Ultrasensitive method at least 3 months prior to the screening visit, as the "qualifying HIV-1 RNA."
- •HIV-1 RNA less than 200 copies/mL measured by bDNA (Chiron 3.0) may be used as a qualifying HIV-1 RNA for entry to the study but not for the confirmatory HIV-1 RNA.
- •The subject must have a confirmed second plasma HIV-1 RNA less than 200 copies/mL at screening, as the "confirmatory HIV-1 RNA."
- •The subject must not have a plasma HIV-1 RNA greater than or equal to 200 copies/mL between the qualifying and confirmatory HIV-1 RNA measurements.
- •Subjects receiving lipid-lowering agents (LLA) will be allowed; however, LLAs must be stable for greater than or equal to 3 months prior to study entry.
- •Adequate renal function defined as a calculated CLcr greater than or equal to 50 mL/min according to the Cockcroft-Gault formula
- •Negative serum pregnancy test (females of childbearing potential only)
- •Hepatic transaminases alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) less than or equal to 5 X upper limit of normal
- •Males and females (of childbearing potential, ie, a non-menopausal female or a female with menopause < 2 years, and who has not had a hysterectomy, bilateral oophorectomy, or medically documented ovarian failure; this definition includes a young woman who has not yet started menstruating), and must agree to avoid pregnancy by sexual abstinence, or utilization of a highly effective method of birth control throughout the study period and for 30 days following discontinuation of study drug
- •The ability to understand and sign a written informed consent form, which must be obtained prior to initiation of any study procedures
排除标准
- •Subjects receiving ABC/3TC and a PI without ritonavir
- •Subjects receiving other ARV agents (eg, 2 protease inhibitors boosted with low-dose ritonavir (ie, "double-boosted PI regimens"), nonnucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors [NNRTIs], integrase inhibitors, TDF, or other nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor [NRTIs]) in addition to ABC/3TC and a ritonavir-boosted protease inhibitor
- •Have known resistance to any of the study agents at any time in the past including NRTI resistance mutations (including but not limited to K65R, L74V/I, M184V/I, or thymidine analog mutations) and/or PI resistance mutations
- •A new acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) defining condition diagnosed (with the exception of CD4 criteria) within 30 days of baseline
- •Previous therapy with agents with systemic myelosuppressive, pancreatoxic, hepatotoxic or cytotoxic potential within 3 months of study start or the expected need for such therapy at the time of enrollment
- •Proven or suspected acute hepatitis in the 30 days prior to study entry
- •Anticipated need to initiate drugs during the study that are contraindicated with protease inhibitors (except upon approval by Gilead)
- •Receiving ongoing therapy with any of the following (administration of any of the following medications must be discontinued at least 30 days prior to the Baseline visit and for the duration of the study period):
- •Nephrotoxic agents (aminoglycoside antibiotics, amphotericin B, cidofovir, cisplatin, foscarnet, intravenous pentamidine, other agents with significant nephrotoxic potential)
- •Adefovir dipivoxil
- •Probenecid
- •Systemic chemotherapeutic agents (ie, cancer treatment medications)
- •Systemic corticosteroids
- •Interleukin-2 (IL-2)

结局指标
主要结局
Percentage of Participants With HIV-1 Ribonucleic Acid (RNA) < 200 Copies/mL Through Week 48 Based on Time to Loss of Virologic Response (TLOVR) Algorithm
时间窗: Baseline to 48 weeks
The percentage of participants with HIV-1 RNA \< 200 copies/mL based on TLOVR algorithm at Week 48 was summarized. Participants were considered nonresponders in the TLOVR analysis if they experienced virologic rebound prior to or at Week 48, discontinued study before Week 48, or added a new antiretroviral (ARV) agent prior to completion of the study. Virologic rebound was defined as 2 consecutive HIV-1 RNA values \>= 200 copies/mL or the last HIV-1 RNA value \>= 200 copies/mL followed by discontinuation from the study.
