Brief Summary:
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and effect of an experimental human monoclonal antibody (mAb), VRC-HIVMAB060-00-AB (VRC01), in adults infected with HIV who were receiving antiretroviral therapy (ART).

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
HIV Infections Biological: VRC01 Biological: Placebo Phase 1

Detailed Description:

Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) have been developed as treatment for a variety of conditions including cancer, autoimmune disorders, and infections. mAbs may also be a potential treatment for people infected with HIV. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the safety and tolerability of an experimental human mAb, VRC-HIVMAB060-00-AB (VRC01), in HIV-infected adults receiving ART. Study researchers will also evaluate the effect of VRC01 on the number of infected cells containing unspliced HIV-1 transcripts in the blood in participants.

This study enrolled HIV-infected people 18 to 65 years old, who had been receiving ART for at least 2 years and who had a CD4+ count of 200 cells/mm^3 or greater. Participants were randomly assigned to Arm A or Arm B. Participants in Arm A received an intravenous (IV) infusion of VRC01 at Day 0 and Week 3 and an IV infusion of placebo (normal saline) at Weeks 6 and 9. Participants in Arm B received an IV infusion of placebo (normal saline) at Day 0 and Week 3 and an IV infusion of VRC01 at Weeks 6 and 9. Participants recorded their temperature and symptoms for 3 days after each infusion. Study visits occured at study entry (Day 0), and Weeks 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 15, 18, and 30. Study visits included physical examinations, clinical assessments, and blood collection.

The primary safety outcome for this study was descriptive and assessed the occurrence of Grade ≥ 3 AEs including signs/symptoms, lab toxicities, and/or clinical events that are possibly, probably, or definitely related to study treatment (as judged by the core team, blinded to treatment arm) at any time from the initial dose of study treatment to the end of study follow-up. Since this outcome is descriptive, no statistical significance testing was performed.

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Number of Participants Who Experienced Grade 3 or Greater, Treatment Related, Adverse Event (AE) [ Time Frame: Measured from study treatment initiation to study discontinuation (study duration is 30 weeks) ]

    Refer to detailed description in the protocol section.

    Includes signs/symptoms, lab toxicities, and/or clinical events that are possibly, probably, or definitely related to study treatment (as judged by the core team, blinded to treatment arm) at any time from the initial dose of VRC01 to end of study follow-up. This analysis was primarily descriptive and no significance testing was performed.


  2. Change in Cell-associated HIV-1 RNA/DNA Ratio in Total CD4+ Cells [ Time Frame: Screening, entry and week 6 ]
    Change from baseline (geometric average of screening and entry results) to week 6 in log10 transformed cell-associated HIV-1 RNA/DNA ratio in total CD4+ cells


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Number of Participants With Premature Treatment Discontinuation, for Reasons Related to Study Treatment [ Time Frame: Measured from study treatment initiation to study treatment discontinuation (study treatment dispensed through week 12) ]
    Study treatment was taken from entry through week 12 - this outcome assesses the number of participants who permanently and prematurely discontinued study treatment due to reasons related to the study treatment

  2. Change in Cell-associated HIV-1 RNA/DNA Ratio in Total CD4+ Cells - Last Value Carried Forward (LVCF) [ Time Frame: Screening, entry, week 3 and week 6 (week 3 used as LVCF if necessary) ]
    Change from baseline (geometric average of screening and entry results) to week 6 in cell-associated HIV-1 RNA/DNA ratio in total CD4+ cells, using a last value carried forward approach if week 6 cell-associated HIV-1 RNA/DNA ratio was missing. In the event that the week 6 value was missing, the week 3 value was carried forward to be used. This comparison is the change from the average of screening and entry results to the week 6 value (if available), and if week 6 result was not available, the week 3 value was used instead of the week 6 value.

For Arm B, the pre-VRC01 time point used was the week 6 measure and the post-VRC01 time point was the week 12 measure. Change in CA-RNA/DNA ratio was calculated on the log10 scale.
