Sponsor: Germans Trias i Pujol Hospital
Collaborator: Fundacio Lluita Contra la SIDA
Information provided by: Germans Trias i Pujol Hospital
ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT00335192
  Purpose

The purpose of this study is to evaluate if there are pharmacokinetic interactions between the NRTI 3TC and ABV, and the TDF nucleotide. For this purpose, the intracellular and plasma levels of 3TC and ABV will be compared in patients given these nucleosides with TDF and 30 days after the interruption of the TDF.


Condition Intervention Phase
HIV
 Drug: Patients in treatment with 3TC + TDF + LPV/rtv, stop tenofovir during 4 weeks
Drug: Patients in treatment with ABV + TDF + LPV/rtv, stop tenofovir during 4 weeks
Drug: Patients in treatment with 3TC + ABV + TDF+ LPV/rtv, stop TDF during 4 weeks
 Phase IV

Study Type: Interventional
Study Design: Treatment, Non-Randomized, Open Label, Active Control, Crossover Assignment, Safety Study
Official Title: Determination of Plasma and Intracellular Levels of Nucleoside Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitors (NRTI) and of Nucleotide Analog Tenofovir Disoproxil Fumarate (TDF) in Patients Treated With Abacavir and/or Lamivudine Given With or Without TDF.

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • The primary endpoint will be the variation between the intracellular levels of 3TC and ABC before and after the interruption of the treatment with TDF [ Time Frame: At baseline and week 4. ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • Variations between the plasma levels of 3TC and ABC before and after interruption of the treatment with TDF. [ Time Frame: at baseline and week 4 ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Correlation between the intracellular and plasma levels of 3TC, ABC and TDF. [ Time Frame: at baseline and week 4 ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Changes in the intracellular levels of TDF following the withdrawal of the drug. [ Time Frame: At week 4. ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Enrollment: 32

Arms Assigned Interventions
1: Experimental

Phase I: 3TC + TDF + NVP or LPV/rtv

Phase II: patients on treatment with LPV/rtv, stop TDF during 4 weeks: 3TC + LPV/rtv

 Drug: Patients in treatment with 3TC + TDF + LPV/rtv, stop tenofovir during 4 weeks
3TC (300 mg/24 h, 1 tablet/24 h) + Lopinavir/ritonavir (400 mg/12 h, 3 tablets/12 h)
2: Experimental

Phase I: ABV + TDF + NVP or LPV/rtv

Phase II: patients on treatment with LPV/rtv, stop TDF during 4 weeks: ABV + LPV/rtv

 Drug: Patients in treatment with ABV + TDF + LPV/rtv, stop tenofovir during 4 weeks
ABV (300 mg/12 h, 1 tablet/12 h)+ Lopinavir/ritonavir (400 mg/12 h, 3 tablets/12 h)
3: Experimental

Phase I: 3TC + ABV + TDF + NVP or LPV/rtv

Phase II: patients on treatment with LPV/rtv, stop TDF during 4 weeks: 3TC + ABV + LPV/rtv

 Drug: Patients in treatment with 3TC + ABV + TDF+ LPV/rtv, stop TDF during 4 weeks
3TC (300 mg/24 h, 1 tablet/24 h)+ ABV (300 mg/12 h, 1 tablet/12 h)+ Lopinavir/ritonavir (400 mg/12 h, 3 tablets/12 h).

Detailed Description:

There is clear evidence of pharmacokinetic interaction between ddI+TDF. However, the interaction between TDF and other NRTIs, mainly at intracellular level, has not been so well studied.

Since all the NRTIs are anabolized at intracellular level by numerous kinases, and are transported by passive carrier systems, the interaction may be between TDF and other NRTIs.

This study aims to investigate the pharmacokinetic interactions between the TDF and the nucleosides abacavir (ABV) and lamivudine (3TC) at plasma and intracellular level.

With this objective, intracellular and plasma levels will be analysed in a group of patients that receive the combinations 3TC +TDF, ABV+TDF and 3TC+ABV+TDF together with lopinavir/rtv or nevirapine. Subsequently, in a second phase of the study, in the group of patients given ABV and/or 3TC + TDF + lopinavir/rtv, the pharmacokinetic determinations will be repeated after a 4-week interruption of the TDF .
