Treatment Substitution With PRO 140 Monotherapy in Adult Subjects With HIV-1 Infection

This study is a Phase 2b study designed to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of PRO 140 monotherapy for the maintenance of viral suppression in subjects who are stable on combination antiretroviral therapy.

Consenting subjects will be shifted from their combination antiretroviral regimen to PRO 140 monotherapy for 12 weeks. Total treatment duration with PRO 140 will be 14 weeks with the one week overlap of existing retroviral regimen and PRO 140 at the beginning of the study treatment, and one week overlap at the end of the treatment in subjects who do not experience virologic failure.

Key information

About this study

This study is a Phase 2b, multi-center study designed to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of PRO 140 monotherapy for the maintenance of viral suppression in patients who are stable on combination antiretroviral therapy.

Patient enrollment will be staggered in this study to facilitate adequate safety monitoring. A lead cohort will include 12 subjects. Enrollment of additional 28 subjects will not be initiated until it is approved by the independent Data Monitoring Committee (DMC).

Consenting patients will be shifted from combination antiretroviral regimen to PRO 140 monotherapy for 12 weeks. Total treatment duration with PRO 140 will be up to 14 weeks with the one week overlap of existing retroviral regimen and PRO 140 at the beginning of the study treatment and also one week overlap at the end of the treatment in subjects who do not experience Virologic Failure.

PRO 140 will be administered as a 350 mg subcutaneous injection weekly for up to 14 weeks. Study participants will be monitored for viral rebound on a weekly basis following initiation of PRO 140 monotherapy and will re-initiate their previous antiretroviral regimen if plasma HIV-1 RNA levels rise above 400 copies/ml on two consecutive blood draws at least 3 days apart.

The study will have three phases: Screening Phase, Treatment Phase and Follow-up Phase.

The primary objective is to assess efficacy of PRO 140 monotherapy for the maintenance of viral suppression following substitution of antiretroviral therapy in patients who are stable on combination antiretroviral therapy.

The secondary objective of the trial is to assess the clinical safety and tolerability parameters following substitution of antiretroviral therapy in patients who are stable on combination antiretroviral therapy.

    Time frame: From initiation of PRO 140 monotherapy through week 14 or virological failure

    Time to virologic failure after initiating PRO 140 monotherapy. Virologic failure was defined as two (2) consecutive HIV-1 RNA levels of ≥ 400 copies/mL.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Proportion of Subjects With Virologic Failure

    Time frame: From initiation of PRO 140 monotherapy through week 14

    Proportion of Participants with Virologic Failure after initiating PRO 140 monotherapy at or prior to Week 14.

  2. Mean Change From Baseline in Viral Load

    Time frame: From initiation of PRO 140 monotherapy through week 14

  3. Change in Viral Load at the Last Virologic Failure Visit.

    Time frame: From baseline to virologic failure visit (VF). VF can occur at any time from Week 1 to Week 14.

    Mean Change from Baseline in viral load at the last virologic failure visit from Week 1 to Week 14. VF can occur at any time during the treatment phase from week 1 to week 14. Subjects who experience Virologic Failure will be followed up every 4 weeks until the viral load suppression is achieved (i.e., plasma HIV-1 RNA levels to return back to <50 copies/mL)

  4. Mean Change in CD4 Cell Count by Visit

    Time frame: From baseline (week 2) through week 14

    Mean change in CD4 cell count, at each visit within the 14-week treatment phase

  5. Mean Change in CD4 Cell Count

    Time frame: From baseline (week 2) to last visit

    Change from baseline in CD4 cell count, within the 14-week treatment phase

  6. Q1 QOL Health Status

    Time frame: From baseline to virologic failure (VF occurring at any time from Week 1 to Week 12 or virologic failure which ever comes first)

    Quality of Life Q1 Current General Health Status, is collected from base line to virologic failure (VF can occur at any time from any time during the treatment phase from week 1 to week 14). Subjects who experience Virologic Failure will be followed up every 4 weeks until the viral load suppression is achieved (i.e., plasma HIV-1 RNA levels to return back to <50 copies/mL)

  7. Q2 QOL Current State of Health

    Time frame: From week 1 through treatment weeks 4, 8, 12 or VF visit

    Subjects will rate their current state of health via Visual Analog Scale (VAS) using the line as a guide, with 0 as death or worst possible health and 100 as perfect or best possible health. A higher score indicates best outcome. Subjects may experience Virologic Failure (VF) any time during the treatment phase from week 1 to week 14. Subjects who experience VF will be followed up every 4 weeks until the viral load suppression is achieved (i.e., plasma HIV-1 RNA levels to return back to <50 copies/mL)
