Treatment and study plan

Dolutegravir

Drug

Dosed at 50 mg bd on 3 separate occasions with low, medium and high doses of rifampicin. Dosed at 50 mg od without rifampicin.

Primary outcomes

  1. Change in pharmacokinetic parameter Cmin of dolutegravir

    Time frame: Day 14, Day 28, Day 42, 5 weeks post anti-tuberculosis treatment

    Change in dolutegravir Cmin when dosed with standard, medium, high dose rifampicin

Secondary outcomes

  1. Change in pharmacokinetic parameter AUC of dolutegravir

    Time frame: Day 14, Day 28, Day 42, 5 weeks post anti-tuberculosis treatment

    Change in dolutegravir AUC when dosed with standard, medium, high dose rifampicin

  2. Change in pharmacokinetic parameter Cmax of dolutegravir

    Time frame: Day 14, Day 28, Day 42, 5 weeks post anti-tuberculosis treatment

    Change in dolutegravir Cmax when dosed with standard, medium, high dose rifampicin

  3. Number of participants with Grade 3 and above adverse events as assessed by DAIDS (corrected v2.1 July 2017)

    Time frame: From first dose of dolutegravir until study completion approximately 2 years

    Number of participants with Grade 3 and above adverse events as assessed by DAIDS (corrected v2.1 July 2017)
