Evaluation of Simplified Antiretroviral Treatment Strategies in HIV Infected Children Treated by Antiretroviral (ARV) Before One Year of Age

Phase 2
Completed
Conditions
HIV Infections
Interventions
Drug: AZT-3TC-LPV/r twice a day
Drug: ABC-3TC-EFV once a day
Registration Number
NCT01127204
Lead Sponsor
ANRS, Emerging Infectious Diseases
Brief Summary

The MONOD trial aim to evaluate the implementation of early antiretroviral treatment strategies in HIV-infected infants and assess the feasibility and efficacy of simplifying the initial proposed regimen after a successful one year treatment. The initial treatment is AZT-3TC-LPV/r twice a day. After one year, the children will be randomized in one of the following : arm 1-reference AZT-3TC-LPV/r twice daily; arm 2-simplified ABC-3TC-EFV once daily.

The perspective of this project is to identify antiretroviral strategies to improve treatment access and adherence for children in sub-saharian Africa.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Initial therapeutic cohort: Virological success12 months

survival without virological failure (death or loss of follow-up or virologic failure, i.e. HIV-ARN ≥400 copies/mL on one consecutive sample), analysis of resistance profile.

Randomised simplification phase: Virological success25 months

survival without virological failure (death or loss of follow-up or virologic failure (HIV-ARN ≥400 copies/mL ))from M13 to M25.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Virological success12 months

HIV RNA \< 400 copies / mL

Immunological response12 and 25 months

CD4+ lymphocyte absolute count and percentage

Antiretroviral and cotrimoxazol pharmacokinetic parameters6, 19 and 25 months

The following parameters will be measured or calculated: maximal and minimal concentration (Cmax, Cmin), half life (t1/2), Aire Under the Curve (AUC), clearance and volume of distribution, for all antiretroviral (according to treatment arm : AZT, 3TC, LPV, ABC, EFV) and cotimoxazol.

Tolerance12 and 25 month

occurence of grade 3 and 4 adverse events related to the trial treatment, particularly occurence of immune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome

Adherence12 and 25 months

measurement at each protocol visit of the three last days treatment intake to be corelated to the antiretroviral concentration and virological success

Resistance to antiretroviral12 and 25 months

Genotyping to analyse resistance mutation when virological failure
