Pharmacokinetics and Safety of Rifabutin 150 mg Once Daily Versus Rifabutin 300 mg Thrice Weekly

February 11, 2020 updated by: The HIV Netherlands Australia Thailand Research Collaboration

A Pilot Study of the Pharmacokinetics and Safety of Rifabutin 150 mg Once Daily Versus Rifabutin 300 mg Thrice Weekly With Lopinavir/Ritonavir Based HAART in HIV/TB Co-infected Patients

To describe the pharmacokinetics of rifabutin 150 mg once daily versus rifabutin 300 mg thrice weekly in combination with LPV/r 400/100mg based HAART in HIV/TB infected patients

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Completed

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.

Detailed Description

The overall aim of the project is to evaluate rifabutin as a replacement for rifampicin, for the combined treatment of tuberculosis and HIV infection. Rifabutin represents an alternative to rifampicin for HIV infected patients as its half-life is longer and the enzymatic induction effect appears to be less important on the associated ART drugs. This phase II trial is to determine precisely the pharmacokinetics parameters of rifabutin in combination with LPV/r regimens in Thai HIV/TB infected patients, in order to define optimal doses that will be further tested in a larger phase III trial comparing safety, tolerability and efficacy of rifabutin and rifampicin regimens.

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 60 years (ADULT)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study
