Study of KP-1461 for the Treatment of HIV Positive Patients Who Have Failed Multiple HAART Regimens

December 30, 2007 updated by: Koronis Pharmaceuticals.

A Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Dose Escalation Study of the Safety, Tolerability, and Pharmacokinetics of Multiple Oral Doses of KP-1461 in HIV+ Adults Who Have Failed Two or More Highly Active Antiretroviral Regimens (HAART)

The primary purpose of the study is to assess the safety and pharmacokinetics of KP-1461 given every 12 hours for 14 days when administered to HIV+ patients who have failed multiple highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) regimens. Patients currently on HAART will be required to discontinue all HAART medications for up to 6 weeks after screening eligibility has been determined.

Detailed Description

KP-1461 is a carbamate prodrug of the active nucleoside, KP-1212. KP-1212 is incorporated into the proviral DNA. After multiple rounds of replication, KP-1212 increases the high inherent mutation rate of HIV beyond the threshold of viability, a process called "viral decay acceleration". KP-1212 is unique from conventional nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors in that it inserts mutations randomly across the entire 10,000 nucleotide HIV genome and does not exert selective pressure by targeting a specific viral or cellular process, thus potentially avoiding drug resistance.
