Detailed Description
This study will evaluate the effects of cenicriviroc mesylate (CVC) on arterial inflammation in people living with HIV.
Participants will be randomized to either the CVC arm (Arm A) or placebo for CVC arm (Arm B). CVC 150 mg or placebo for CVC will be added to the participants' pre-existing antiretroviral (ARV) regimens once a day for at least 24 weeks. For participants who are on an efavirenz (EFV)-based regimen, dosing will be 300 mg once a day.
Study participants will remain on study treatment for approximately 24 weeks. Study visits may include blood collection, physical examinations, and FDG-PET/CT imaging.

Description
Inclusion Criteria:
HIV-1 infection, documented by any licensed rapid HIV test or HIV enzyme or chemiluminescence immunoassay (E/CIA) test kit at any time prior to study entry and confirmed by a licensed Western blot or a second antibody test by a method other than the initial rapid HIV and/or E/CIA, or by HIV-1 antigen, plasma HIV-1 RNA viral load OR two HIV-1 RNA >1,000 copies/mL.
- NOTE: The term "licensed" refers to a US Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved kit, which is required for all investigational new drug (IND) studies.
- WHO (World Health Organization) and CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) guidelines mandate that confirmation of the initial test result must use a test that is different from the one used for the initial assessment. A reactive initial rapid test should be confirmed by either another type of rapid assay or an E/CIA that is based on a different antigen preparation and/or different test principle (e.g., indirect versus competitive), or a Western blot or a plasma HIV-1 RNA viral load.
Currently on a stable, continuous non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI)-based or unboosted integrase strand transfer inhibitor (INSTI)-based antiretroviral therapy (ART) regimen for ≥48 weeks prior to study entry with no ART interruption longer than 7 consecutive days and with no plans to change ART during the course of the study.
- NOTE A: Stable is defined as no within-class changes in ART regimen within 12 weeks prior to study entry and no between-class changes for 24 weeks prior to study entry.

- NOTE A: Up to two HIV-1 RNA determinations that are between the assay quantification limit and 500 copies/mL (i.e., "blips") are allowed as long as the preceding and subsequent determinations are below the level of quantification.
- NOTE B: The screening value may serve as the subsequent undetectable value following a blip.

Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Change in arterial most diseased segment (MDS) 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG)-positron emission tomography (PET) target-to-background ratio (TBR), measured in the carotid arteries and aorta.
Time Frame: Pre-entry and week 24
|
The standardized uptake value (SUV) of FDG will be measured in the carotid arteries, aortic root, and the left main coronary artery.
The SUV is the decay-corrected tissue concentration of FDG (in kBq/mL) divided by the injected dose per body weight (kBq/g).
TBR will be calculated for each vascular segment as the segment SUV divided by mean venous blood SUV.
Change from baseline to week 24, where baseline is defined as pre-entry.
