Low Dose Atazanavir/r Versus Standard Dose Atazanavir/r (LASA)

A Multicenter Randomized Study to Compare the Efficacy and Safety of Lower Dose Atazanavir /Ritonavir (ATV/r 200/100 OD) Versus Standard Dose (ATV/r 300/100 mg OD) in Combination With 2NRTIs in Well Virology Suppressed HIV-infected Adults

This study will compare the efficacy and safety of ATV/r at either 200/100 mg or 300/100mg given daily in Thai patients in combination with 2NRTIs.

Detailed Description

To demonstrate non-inferiority of treatment with atazanavir/ritonavir (ATV/r) 200/100 mg once daily (OD) compared to the control group (ATV/r 300/100 mg OD) in regards to the proportion of virologic responders (plasma HIV RNA < 200 copies/mL) at 48 weeks in ARV-experienced HIV-1 infected subjects.

Design Details

  • Primary Purpose: TREATMENT
  • Allocation: RANDOMIZED
  • Interventional Model: PARALLEL
  • Masking: TRIPLE

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
EXPERIMENTAL: 1
ATV/r 200 mg/100 mg OD
All participants will be randomized to take ATV/r 200 mg/100 mg OD or ATV/r 300/100 mg OD. NRTIs background regimens will remain unchanged if possible. NRTIs background may include zidovudine/lamivudine, zidovudine plus ddI, ddI plus lamivudine, tenofovir plus lamivudine, tenofovir/emtricitabine, zidovudine plus tenofovir. NRTI backbone could be switched or modified due to toxicity or intolerance
EXPERIMENTAL: 2
ATV/r 300 mg/100 mg OD
All participants will be randomized to take ATV/r 200 mg/100 mg OD or ATV/r 300/100 mg OD. NRTIs background regimens will remain unchanged if possible. NRTIs background may include zidovudine/lamivudine, zidovudine plus ddI, ddI plus lamivudine, tenofovir plus lamivudine, tenofovir/emtricitabine, zidovudine plus tenofovir. NRTI backbone could be switched or modified due to toxicity or intolerance

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
noninferiority
Time Frame: Dec. 2013
ATV/r 200/100 mg will be judged to be non-inferior to ATV 300/100mg if the lower limit of the 95% confidence interval for the difference in proportion of patients with virological response between the two groups does not exceed -10%
Dec. 2013

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
viral load
Time Frame: DEc. 2013
A secondary efficacy analysis will explore the impact of changing the lower limit of detection of viral load to <50 copies/mL
DEc. 2013
serious adverse events
Time Frame: Dec. 2013
Changes in HDL, LDL, cholesterol, triglycerides and bilirubin, or having grade 3 and 4 laboratory adverse events
Dec. 2013
