Fosamprenavir in Pts With Hepatic Impairment - Full Text View

Purpose

APV10017 was a pharmacokinetic study that evaluated the pharmacokinetics, safety and tolerability of fosamprenavir/ritonavir (FPV/RTV) at reduced doses over 14 days in HIV-infected subjects with mild to moderate hepatic impairment (HI). Based on these data, two new regimens have recently been approved by the EMEA and FDA in these patient groups; FPV 700mg BID/RTV 100mg QD for those with mild HI (Child-Pugh score 4-6) and FPV 450mg BID/RTV 100mg QD for those with moderate HI (Child Pugh score 7-9). The Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) has requested longer-term safety data among this hepatically impaired HIV-infected population who have received the recently updated FPV/RTV dosing regimens.

An observational cohort study will be conducted using routinely collected data in three European HIV patient cohorts with a high proportion of hepatitis co-infected individuals. Patients who received FPV/RTV will be followed to address the following objectives.

Primary: To assess the safety and tolerability of FPV/RTV-based ART in subjects with mild to moderate hepatic impairment.

Secondary: A). To compare the safety and tolerability of FPV/RTV-based ART in subjects with mild to moderate hepatic impairment when compared to FPV/RTV-based ART in hepatitis B (HBV) or hepatitis C (HCV) co-infected subjects with normal hepatic function. B). To compare the safety and tolerability of FPV/RTV-based ART to lopinavir/ritonavir LPV/RTV-based ART in subjects with mild to moderate hepatic impairment.

Incidence rates per 100 person-years of follow-up of study primary outcome. The numbers analyzed in the category titles represent the number of patients with each event. Incidence rate is the number of new cases per population in a given time period, where the denominator is the sum of the person-time of the at-risk population.

Other Outcome Measures:

Median Length of Participant Follow-up and Length of Time on Antiretroviral Therapy (ART) at Baseline [ Time Frame: Baseline ]
Participant characteristics at baseline are presented according to treatment group. ART is used for the treatment of HIV.
Cluster of Differentiation (CD4) Count at Baseline [ Time Frame: Baseline ]
Participant characteristics at baseline according to treatment group. CD4 count is a measurement of how many functional CD4 T-cells are circulating in the blood. The lower the absolute CD4 count, the weaker the immune system.
Median Aspartate Aminotransferase (AST)-Platelet Ratio Index (APRI) Score at Baseline [ Time Frame: Baseline ]
The APRI score (AST to platelet ratio index) is an index comprised of biochemical values and is used to determine the degree of hepatic fibrosis. It is calculated as follows: APRI score = ([AST level/Upper Limit Normal]/Platelet counts) x 100. AST = Aspartate aminotransferase. In general, APRI scores range from 0 to >2.0, where scores <0.5 indicate no significant fibrosis, scores >1.5 indicate significant fibrosis, and scores >2.0 have been shown to be best correlated with the presence of cirrhosis.
Median FIB (a Model of End-stage Liver Disease) Score at Baseline [ Time Frame: Baseline ]
The FIB-4 score is an index that combines biochemical values (platelets, ALT, AST) and age to determine the degree of hepatic fibrosis. FIB-4 = (Age x AST)/(Platelet counts x ALT1/2). The FIB-4 score ranges between values of 0 to 13. A score of <1.45 indicates no/moderate fibrosis (F0-F1-F2-F3 in the ISHAK classification of fibrosis), whereas a score >3.25 is indicative of extensive fibrosis or cirrhosis (F4-F5-F6). The ISHAK classification of fibrosis is a commonly used scoring system that stages fibrosis from 0-6 (1-2, portal fibrotic expansion; 3-4, bridging fibrosis; 5-6, cirrhosis).
Median Model of End-stage Liver Disease (MELD) Score at Baseline [ Time Frame: Baseline ]
MELD is a scoring system for assessing the severity of chronic liver disease and is used to predict participant survival. It is calculated using biochemical values as follows: MELD = (0.957 x Log[Creatinine]) + (0.378 x Log[Bilirubin]) + (1.120 x Log[INR]) + 0.6431. INR = International Normalized Ratio for prothrombin time. MELD scores range between 0 and 40, with 40 being the most severe, i.e., 100% mortality. In interpreting the MELD score in hospitalized participants, the 3-month mortality is: score >=40, 100% mortality; 30-39, 83% mortality; 20-29, 76% mortality; 10-19, 27% mortality.
Median ALT and AST Scores at Baseline [ Time Frame: Baseline ]
Participants characteristics at baseline according to treatment group.
Median Blood Platelet Count at Baseline [ Time Frame: Baseline ]
Participant characteristics at baseline according to treatment group.
Median Bilirubin Level at Baseline [ Time Frame: Baseline ]
Participant characteristics at baseline according to treatment group.

Sexes Eligible for Study:	All
Accepts Healthy Volunteers:	No
Sampling Method:	Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

The source population is from three HIV patient cohorts; ICONA, HEPAVIH and MASTER cohort in Europe. Data from these cohorts are comprised of the clinical records (or a defined subset thereof) of HIV infected patients. The ICONA Foundation study collects data on HIV infected individuals from 67 infectious disease centres across Italy and has been established since 1997. The ICONA cohort only includes patients who are treatment naïve at initial presentation. HEPAVIH is a cohort of HIV-hepatitis co-infected patients, identified from three other ongoing French HIV cohorts: RIBAVIC, SEROCO and AQUITAINE and an additional 12 clinical departments. The MASTER cohort collects data on HIV infected individuals from centres across Italy and includes treatment-experienced and naive patients.

Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

HIV infected patients with or without hepatic impairment coinfected with HBV or HCV who started FPV/RTV-based therapy on or after January 1, 2008. The FPV/RTV exposed patients will be stratified into four groups for analysis (see interventions A-D for label/description above), according to their degree of baseline hepatic impairment, which will be defined according to FPV/RTV dose received (and APRI score for interventions A and D). The LPV/RTV intervention group must have started this therapy at approved standard doses on or after January 1, 2008.

Exclusion Criteria:

Receipt of FPV/RTV or LPV/RTV within the year preceding the baseline visit.
