Pharmacokinetic Interactions Between Telaprevir and Un-boosted Atazanavir

Hypothesis: the Telaprevir(TVR) plasma levels (750 mg q8h or 1125 mg/12h )will not be affected when co-administered with un-boosted Atazanavir (ATV) 200 mg q12h plus two analogues (NRTIs) in HCV/HIV-co-infected patients.

Key information

About this study

Objectives

  • Primary Outcome Measures: evaluate the changes in the plasma pharmacokinetic parameters (Cmax, Cmin, AUC, t 1/2, and Cl) of Telaprevir (TVR) administered at 750 mg/8h together with un-boosted Atazanavir (200 mg/12h), taking as reference the pharmacokinetic parameters observed when TVR is administered with Atazanavir/ritonavir (300/100 mg/day)
  • To assess the changes in the plasma pharmacokinetic parameters of Atazanavir administered as 200 mg/12h with respect to its administration as 300/100 mg/day when administered together with TVR (750 mg/8h or 1125 mh/12h).

Method: open labelled clinical trial with a planned duration of 24 weeks in which 14 HIV/Hepatitis C virus genotype 1 patients under treatment with pegylated α-interferon, Ribavirin and Telaprevir will be enrolled. A 24 hours pharmacokinetic profile will be obtained after a supervised drug intake while taking TVR and ATV/rtv. Afterwards, the patients will take un-boosted ATV 200 mg bid for 7 - 10 days. Subsequently, a new pharmacokinetic profile will be obtained.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Patients over 18 years old co-infected with HIV and genotype 1 HCV under treatment with pegylated α-interferon, Ribavirin and Telaprevir according to the recommendations of the Spanish Agency of Medicines and Health Products.
  • Informed consent of the patient.

Exclusion criteria

  • The usual exclusion criteria in clinical practice to start the treatment with these drugs (pegylated α-interferon, Ribavirin, Telaprevir and atazanavir) according to the Spanish and international recommendations (Spanish Agency of Medicines and Health Products,European Association for the Study of the Liver Clinical Practice Guidelines: management of hepatitis C virus infection. J Hepatol. 2011. Consensus Document of Gesida/Spanish Plan on Aids regarding the antiretroviral treatment in adults infected with the human immunodeficiency virus [Updated January 2012]).
  • Concomitant use of drugs or medicinal products that could alter the pharmacokinetics of TVR or ATV.
  • Medical records suggesting malabsorption or presence of diarrhea (>3 depositions/day) that could interfere with the absorption of the studied drugs.

Primary outcomes

  1. Changes in pharmacokinetic parameters of TVR

    Time frame: 7 - 10 days

    The Telaprevir peak concentrations (Cmax), trough levels (Cmin) at 8 or 12 hours, the areas under the curves over the dosing interval (AUC0-τ), and half-life during the elimination phase (t½ β) will be compared between days 0 and 7 as geometric mean ratios (GMRs) and their 90% CIs using day 0 values as reference. The differences in pharmacokinetic parameters between the regimens will be considered significant when the interval between low and high 90% CI did not include the value 1.0.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Changes in pharmacokinetic parameters of ATV

    Time frame: 7 - 10 days

    The Atazanavir peak concentrations (Cmax), trough levels (Cmin) at 12 or 24 hours, the areas under the curves over the dosing interval (AUC0-τ), and half-life during the elimination phase (t½ β) will be summarized as geometric means (GM) and will be compared between days 0 and 7 as geometric mean ratios (GMRs) and their 90% CIs using day 0 values as reference. The differences in pharmacokinetic parameters between the regimens will be considered significant when the interval between low and high 90% CI did not include the value 1.0.
