Tenofovir Rectal Douche to Prevent HIV Transmission Among Adolescents (ATN

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

ATN DREAM is an early phase-1, open label study to examine the safety, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), and acceptability of a one-dose tenofovir (TFV) medicated douche. The overall goal is to inform the design of an extended safety study of an on-demand and behaviorally congruent TFV douche to confer protection from HIV acquisition in an outpatient pre-RAI context

Clinical Trial Description

On demand and behaviorally-congruent forms of HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) have long been demanded by communities at great risk of HIV, especially men who have sex with men (MSM). The DREAM Program is developing a tenofovir (TFV) douche for on demand PrEP use prior to receptive anal intercourse (RAI), given that the vast majority of MSM very commonly douche prior to RAI (behaviorally-congruent). This ATN protocol seeks to ensure the inclusion of adolescent and young adults' (age 15-24 years) perspectives as next generation biomedical prevention, specifically a rectal douche, is being developed for efficacy. ATN DREAM is an early phase 1, open label study to compare the safety, PK, PD, and acceptability of a TFV-medicated douche. Each participant will undergo a Screening Visit to evaluate eligibility. Baseline Visit will assess pre-dose safety, PK, PD, and behavioral points of reference. Safety, PK, PD, and behavioral readouts are assessed at specified times after the single dose. The TFV douche to be used consists of TFV 660 mg in 125 mL half-normal saline (TFV 5.28 mg/mL). Study objectives including safety, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), and acceptability of a single TFV douche, are essential to inform the design of an extended safety study of a TFV douche in outpatient pre-RAI contexts. The necessity of extending the testing of new HIV prevention modalities to this proposed adolescent population is motivated by anticipated behavioral differences, not biological ones. Participant accrual will take approximately 9 months and each participant will be on study for approximately 3 months. Total study duration is about 1 year. ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
