简要总结
Purpose: To Assess the impact of high and low in vivo estradiol exposure on PrEP (Pre-exposure prophylaxis) nucleotide concentrations in different cellular populations of the lower GI (gastrointestinal) tract and to quantify the relationship between estradiol, progesterone, and testosterone on PrEP nucleotide concentrations in rectal and peripheral blood mononuclear cells. As well as the relationship between estradiol, progesterone, and testosterone on PrEP concentrations in plasma.
Participants: Healthy, cisgender female, volunteers, aged 18-49 inclusive on the date of screening with an intact gastrointestinal system and regular menstrual cycle.
Procedures (methods): Participants will take a single daily dose of study drug for five days before each sampling visit. The visits will be scheduled during the early follicular phase of the menstrual cycle (approximately days 2-5 after the first day of menses, Visit 1) when estradiol is predicted to be the lowest and the late follicular phase (approximately days 12-15 after the first day of menses, Visit 2) when estradiol is predicted to be highest. Samples of blood, rectal cells, and rectal tissue will be collected at both Visits 1 and 2. All participants will complete a follow-up safety visit within 14 days of completing study sampling.
详细描述
Participants will be enrolled, and sampling visits will be scheduled to correspond with their menstrual cycles. Five days prior to the first scheduled sampling visit, participants will come to the clinic to have a repeat urine pregnancy test performed to verify eligibility. After verification, participants will be given a single dose of the study medication, Truvada®. Study staff will witness the dose and assess for any adverse reactions post dose. Participants will be sent home with a supply of 4 additional doses of Truvada® for them to take at scheduled times for the next 4 days with study staff observing via video call. Study staff will assess for adverse events during each dosing call. Starting 72 hours before each sampling visit, participants will be required to switch to a low fiber diet and abstain from inserting anything rectally. Twelve hours prior to each sampling visit, participants will be required to abide by a clear liquid diet. Participants will be seen as an outpatient at the Clinical Translational Research Center (CTRC) at University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (UNC) for these sampling visits. At these visits, participants will have blood samples drawn to measure peripheral blood mononuclear cells and serum hormone concentrations. Participants will also have rectal cells collected via cytobrush and rectal tissue collected via rectal biopsy. After all samples have been collected, participants will be evaluated for adverse events and be discharged. Within 14 days of completion of the second sampling visit, for a follow-up visit. At this visit, blood will be obtained to check safety labs.

入选标准
- •Healthy cisgender pre-menopausal female participants between the ages of 18 and 49 years, inclusive on the date of screening (Healthy is defined as no irregular menstrual cycles or clinically relevant abnormalities identified by a detailed medical history, full physical examination, including blood pressure and pulse rate measurement, and clinical laboratory tests.
- •Regular menstrual cycles defined as at least 1 day of menses occurring every 21-35 days)
- •Estimated calculated creatinine clearance (eCcr) of at least 60 mL/min by the Cockcroft-Gault formula where: eCcr (female) in mL/min = [(140 - age in years) x (weight in kg) x 0.85] / (72x serum creatinine in mg/dL).
- •Negative serum pregnancy test at screening
- •All participants should be using at least one of the following methods of contraception* from the screening visit through 72 hours prior to inpatient admission (at which time the women will be asked to remain abstinent until after their follow-up visit):
- •Non continuous systemic hormonal contraceptives that permit intermittent menstruation
- •IUD (non-hormonal intrauterine device) placed at least 1 month prior to study enrollment
- •Bilateral tubal ligation (Sterilization)
- •Vasectomized male partners
- •Condom + Spermicide
- •*Unless engaged in sexual activity with female only sex partners or abstinent for at least 3 months prior with no intention of becoming sexually active during the study period. Any history of recent or present concomitant male sex partners will be addressed and ruled out in the context of screening participants for eligibility for the protocol
- •Evidence of a personally signed and dated informed consent document indicating that the subject has been informed of all pertinent aspects of the trial.
- •Willing and able to comply with scheduled visits, treatment plan, laboratory tests, and other trial procedures.
- •Subject must be willing to abstain from sexual intercourse, and all and intrarectal objects and products for at least 72 hours prior to Sampling #1 until study completion.
- •Subject must be HIV-1 and Hepatitis B and C negative as documented on screening labs.
- •Subject must not be actively involved in the conception process and must be non-lactating.
- •Subject must be able to swallow pills and have no allergies to any component of the study product
排除标准
- •Evidence or history of clinically significant hematological, renal, endocrine, pulmonary, gastrointestinal, cardiovascular, hepatic, psychiatric, neurologic, or allergic disease (including documented drug allergies, but excluding untreated, asymptomatic, seasonal allergies at time of dosing).
- •Participants with a history of hysterectomy
- •Participants who are pregnant, possibly pregnant or lactating
- •History of febrile illness within five days prior to first dose.
- •Any condition possibly affecting drug absorption (eg, gastrectomy or other significant alterations of the gastrointestinal tract)
- •A positive urine drug screen.
- •An untreated-positive test for syphilis, gonorrhea, or Chlamydia at screening.
- •Any clinically relevant laboratory chemistry or hematology result Grade 2 or greater according to the Division of AIDS Laboratory Grading Tables
