- Brief Summary
A phase IV, prospective, multicenter , randomized open label, 48 weeks study to evaluate the antiretroviral efficacy and safety of atazanavir/ritonavir or darunavir/ritonavir, each in combination with a fixed dose of tenofovir disoproxil fumarate- emtricitabine in HIV-1-infected treatment-naïve subjects with CD4 counts below 200 µL.
- Detailed Description
Principal objective
To evaluate the virological efficacy and safety at week 48 of 2 regimens atazanavir/ritonavir (ATZ/r) 300/100 mg or darunavir/ritonavir (DRV/r) 800/100 mg, each in combination with a fixed-dose of tenofovir/emtracitabine in HIV-1 treatment-naïve subjects with CD4 counts below 200 µL.
Secondary objectives
* Proportion of subjets with virologic efficacy at week 24
* Proportion of subjects with confirmed virologic failure at week 24 or later
* Proportion of patients with virologic mutations
* Evaluate the virologic effect in seminal fluid
* To evaluate immunological response over time up to week 48
* To assess plasma and seminal pharmacokinetics of the drugs in the treatment regimen at week 4, 24, and 48
* Correlate the pharmacokinetic properties of the drugs with virologic outcome in plasma and semen at week 4 and 48
* Correlate the free fraction (not bound to protein) of atazanavir and darunavir in plasma and semen to virologic outcome
* Evaluate the relationship of bilirubinemia with atazanavir

* Development of resistance mutations in subjects who have virologic failure testing at 24 weeks or later tested by a genotypic resistance test
* Evaluate the virologic effect in seminal fluid at baseline, W4 and W48 by change in HIV RNA concentrations in semen over time
* To evaluate immunological response over time up to week 48 in the 2 arms by CD4 cell count ( W-4, W2,W4, W12, W36 and W48), differenciation and activation in T CD4 ( W2,W4, W12, W24 and W48); Change in lymphocyte subset reconsistution at week 48 compared to baseline. ; Change in immunolgic markers of inflammations at weeks 2, 4, 12, 24, 48
* To assess plasma and seminal pharmacokinetics of the drugs in the treatment regimen at week 4, 24, and 48 through residual concentrations ( C min) of antiretroviral drugs at W4, W24, and W48
* Atazanavir and darunavir (plasma and seminal) drug concentrations and coorelation with adverse clinical and laboratory events.
* Evaluate the relationship of bilirubinemia with atazanavir pharmacokinetics (Cmin)
* Evolution of lipid, glucose and insulin parameters from baseline to weeks 24 and 48
* Adherence to regimen, patient satisfaction and sexual behaviour between the regimens at W2,W24 and W48 mesured by ( mettre ref)
* Evolution of anthropomorphic measurements from baseline to weeks 24, 48.
