Descriptive Information

• Brief Title: PRO 140 in Treatment-Experienced HIV-1 Subjects
• Official Title: A Multi-center, Two-Part, Single-Arm, Open Label, 25-Week Trial With PRO 140 in Treatment-Experienced HIV-1 Subjects
• Brief Summary: The primary objectives of the trial are to assess the efficacy, clinical safety and tolerability parameters of PRO 140 in combination with failing ART during the initial one-week treatment period, and in combination with Optimized Background Therapy during the subsequent 24-week treatment period.
• Detailed Description: PRO 140, in combination with other antiretroviral agents, is indicated for treatment experienced adult HIV-1 patients infected with CCR5-tropic virus. These patients must demonstrate evidence of HIV-1 replication despite ongoing antiretroviral therapy and have documented genotypic or phenotypic resistance to at least one ART drug within three drug classes (or within two or more drug classes with limited treatment option). The options may be limited as a result of drug antiviral class cross-resistance, documented treatment intolerance, documented objective assessments such as renal or hepatic insufficiency (e.g. high creatinine at baseline, limiting treatment options due to potential for toxicity), past adverse reactions such as hypersensitivity reactions or neuropsychiatric issues that could limit use of currently approved drugs. Study population includes treatment-experienced HIV-infected patients with CCR5-tropic virus who demonstrates evidence of HIV-1 replication despite ongoing antiretroviral therapy with documented genotypic or phenotypic resistance to ART drugs within three drug classes (or within two drug classes with limited treatment option). The primary objectives of the trial are to assess the efficacy, clinical safety and tolerability parameters of PRO 140 in combination with failing ART during the initial one-week treatment period, and in combination with Optimized Background Therapy during the subsequent 24-week treatment period.
• Study Type: Interventional
• Study Phase: Phase 2; Phase 3
• Study Design: Allocation: N/A; Intervention Model: Single Group Assignment; Masking: None (Open Label); Primary Purpose: Treatment
• Condition: HIV-1-infection

Intervention

Drug: PRO 140

2 injections of PRO 140 (2 X 2 mL/inj.)

Other Name: Leronlimab

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

1. Males and females, age ≥18 years
2. Exclusive CCR5-tropic virus at Screening Visit as determined by Monogram Biosciences Trofile® Assay
3. Have a history of at least 3 months on current antiretroviral regimen
4. Treatment-experienced HIV-infected patients with documented genotypic or phenotypic resistance to at least one ART drug within three drug classes OR Treatment-experienced HIV-infected patients with documented genotypic or phenotypic resistance to at least one ART drug within two drug classes and have limited treatment option. The options may be limited as a result of drug antiviral class cross-resistance, documented treatment intolerance, documented objective assessments such as renal or hepatic insufficiency (e.g. high creatinine at baseline, limiting treatment options due to potential for toxicity), past adverse reactions such as hypersensitivity reactions or neuropsychiatric issues that could limit use of currently approved drugs.
5. Be willing to remain on treatment without any changes or additions to the OBT regimen, except for toxicity management or upon meeting criteria for treatment failure
6. Plasma HIV-1 RNA ≥ 400 copies/mL at Screening Visit as determined by Human Immunodeficiency Virus 1 (HIV-1) Quantitative, RNA (Roche Taqman® Real-Time PCR) and documented detectable viral load (HIV-1 RNA >50 copies/ml) within the last 3 months prior to Screening Visit

7. Laboratory values at Screening of:

   1. Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥750/mm3
   2. Hemoglobin (Hb) ≥10.5 gm/dL (male) or ≥ 9.5 gm/dL (female)
   3. Platelets ≥75,000 /mm3
   4. Serum alanine transaminase (SGPT/ALT) <5 x upper limit of normal (ULN)
   5. Serum aspartate transaminase (SGOT/AST) <5 x ULN

Females of childbearing potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test at Screening visit and negative urine pregnancy test prior to receiving the first dose of study drug

Exclusion Criteria:
