A Phase IV, Open-label, Randomised, Pilot Clinical Trial Designed to Evaluate the Potential Neurotoxicity of Dolutegravir/Lamivudine/Abacavir in Neurosymptomatic HIV Patients and Its Reversibility After Switching to Elvitegravir/Cobicistat/Emtricitabine/Tenofovir Alafenamide. DREAM Study (DREAM)

February 3, 2020 updated by: Fundacion SEIMC-GESIDA
A phase IV, multicentre, randomised, open-label, pilot clinical trial designed to evaluate HIV-infected, aviremic patients who receive treatment with the combination of DTG/3TC/ABC and who have neuropsychiatric adverse effects that, in the opinion of the investigators, may be related to taking DTG/3TC/ABC, if they improve after switching antiretroviral therapy to the combination of ELV/COBI/FTC/TAF.

Study Overview

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

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

14 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Patient > 18 years of age diagnosed with HIV using normal serology techniques.
  • Current antiretroviral therapy with DTG/3TC/ABC.
  • HIV viral load < 50 copies/mL for at least 12 weeks prior to signing the consent form [(]confirmed by two assays at least 12 weeks apart with viremia < 50 copies/mL between both). If the patient has a recent routine blood test available (≤ 4 weeks) that includes determining HIV viral load, these results may be used for the screening visit. If this test is not available, or the test is more than four weeks old, viral load will be determined on the day of screening in order to confirm that the patient meets this criterion.

  • Appearance or worsening of the following symptoms compared to when DTG/3TC/ABC was started:

    • Symptoms of anxiety or depression
    • Insomnia or other sleep disturbances
    • Headache
    • Cognitive complaints (attention, concentration or memory)
    • Alterations in behaviour (irritability, aggressiveness or agitation)
    • Dizziness of neurological or neurologically-mediated origin

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Determination of at least one HIV viral load ≥ 50 copies/mL in the last 12 weeks.
  • Allergy, intolerance or existence of resistance mutations to any of the components of ELV/COBI/FTC/TAF
  • History of active CNS infections
  • Active psychosis, major depression with psychotic symptoms or autolytic ideation
  • Dementia or mental retardation
  • Drug use with a diagnosis of abuse or dependence according to DSM-5 criteria
  • Illnesses that may interfere with the study procedures
  • Claustrophobia
  • Presence of magnetisable devices in the body
  • Inability to complete any of the study procedures
  • Pregnant or nursing women, as well as women of childbearing age who do not agree to use an adequate birth control method.
