Effect of Gender and HIV Infection on Zidovudine and Lamivudine Pharmacokinetics

March 2, 2020 updated by: University of Colorado, Denver

Sex and Disease Dependent Nucleoside Analog Toxicity

This study evaluated the blood and blood cell concentrations of zidovudine and lamivudine in men versus women and in those with versus without HIV infection. Additionally, markers of side effects were correlated with blood levels of the drugs. The hypothesis was that women and those with HIV would have higher drug levels, as well as markers of side effects.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Study Type

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years to 55 years (Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Yes

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Documented physician-diagnosed HIV-infection (HIV+ antibody or plasma HIV-RNA+); HIV-negative volunteers must have a negative HIV-ELISA.
  • Age 18 to 55 years;
  • Either antiretroviral naïve, or no HIV-therapy in the preceding 6 months;
  • Planned antiretroviral regimen includes standard doses of ZDV plus 3TC as part of the antiretroviral regimen. Once- or twice-daily 3TC will be allowed.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Any medical condition that in the opinion of the investigators would jeopardize the intent of the study.
  • In the opinion of the investigator, any concomitant immunomodulatory medications, chemotherapeutic agents, investigational drugs, and alternative therapies, including, glucocorticoids, recombinant growth factors or cytokines (e.g. Granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor, Granulocyte colony-stimulating factor, interferon-alpha or gamma, human growth hormone, etc), ribavirin, birth-control pills, and sex hormones that could interfere with the cellular pharmacology of the study medications;
  • Concomitant medications that interfere with renal drug clearances including, tenofovir, adefovir, cidofovir, ganciclovir, probenecid, or any similarly problematic medication in the opinion of the investigators;
  • Concomitant warfarin or daily aspirin (to prevent excess bleeding from biopsy).
  • Pregnancy or a plan to become pregnant, or menopause;
  • Any > or = grade II abnormality in hemoglobin, absolute neutrophil count, routine liver function tests, serum creatinine, or other organ function abnormalities.
  • Any medical or personal condition that, in the judgment of the investigators, may influence the subject's ability to comply with study conditions, such as active mental illnesses, or plans to leave the geographical area.
  • Inability to give informed consent.
  • Triple nucleoside analog reverse transcriptase regimens.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm

Participant Group / Arm

A group or subgroup of participants in a clinical trial that receives a specific intervention/treatment, or no intervention, according to the trial's protocol.
Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available.

Active Comparator: HIV-negative
This group was used to compare intracellular ZDV- and 3TC-triphosphate concentrations to the HIV-infected group and in men versus women.
Drug: zidovudine 300mg and lamivudine 150mg as Combivir
twice daily for 12 days in the HIV-negative group and indefinitely for their care in the HIV-positive group
Active Comparator: HIV-infected
This group was started on ZDV-3TC based therapy. Intracellular ZDV- and 3TC-triphosphate concentrations were compared in men versus women and the HIV-negative group.
Drug: zidovudine 300mg and lamivudine 150mg as Combivir
twice daily for 12 days in the HIV-negative group and indefinitely for their care in the HIV-positive group
