简要总结

This is a pilot randomized controlled Open-label trial to compare raltegravir and nevirapine as anchor Drug in combined antiretroviral therapy(ART) for ART-naive HIV+ Chinese injection drug users who are also on methadone maintenance therapy. The investigators hypotheses include:

  1. In raltegravir arm compared with nevirapine arm, fewer patients will require methadone dose adjustment to abate methadone withdrawal symptoms. Also the average methadone dose to achieve adequate serum methadone concentrations in patients on the raltegravir-based regimen will be lower compared to that of patients on the nevirapine-based regimen.
  2. Clinical outcomes in terms of viral suppression, CD4 recovery and occurrence of opportunistic infections will be comparable in the two arms at 6 months and one year.
  3. Patients in the raltegravir arm will have a similar or better side effect profile, retention rate, and treatment adherence compared to those in the nevirapine arm.

入选标准

  • Chinese IDUs with documented HIV-1 infection confirmed by a western blot assay.
  • On stable methadone maintenance therapy at the time of enrollment.
  • Antiretrovial treatment naïve and meeting clinical criteria of the Chinese national guideline to initiate antiretroviral therapy.
  • Patient who is of reproductive potential agrees to use an acceptable method of birth control throughout the study. Acceptable method of birth control is defined as intrauterine device (IUD), diaphragm with spermicide, condoms, or abstinence.

排除标准

  • Patients with allergies to or other contraindications for the selected ARV regimens.
  • Patients with acute HIV infection.
  • Use of concomitant therapy which can potentially interact with methadone and scheduled ARVs.
  • Females who are pregnant, breast-feeding, or planning to get pregnant within the study period and using ineffective or hormonal birth control. (Note: All female patients must have a negative pregnancy test at Treatment Day 1)
  • Any active and clinically significant disease or findings discovered on screening medical history, physical examination and laboratory assessment that are not resolved or stabilized within 30 days before the screening phase of this study.
  • Patients with clinical or laboratory evidence of active liver disease, severe hepatic impairment /dysfunction or cirrhosis or elevated liver enzyme levels. (Note: patients co-infected with chronic hepatitis B or C will be allowed to enter the program if their condition is judged to be clinically stable.)
  • Patient's education level that would interfere with the medical, adherence and withdrawal symptoms evaluation.
