Study summary

Phase IV, Single-Arm, Open-Label Study Evaluating Bone Mineral Density in HIV-1-Infected Adults ≥50 Years Old Switching from EVG/COBI/FTC/TAF (Genvoya) or EVG/COBI/FTC/TDF (Stribild) to ABC/DTG/3TC (Triumeq)

Read the detailed description

Phase IV, Single-Arm, Open-Label Study Evaluating Bone Mineral Density in HIV-1-Infected Adults ≥50 Years Old Switching from EVG/COBI/FTC/TAF (Genvoya) or EVG/COBI/FTC/TDF (Stribild) to ABC/DTG/3TC (Triumeq)

To evaluate the impact on BMD, as measured by DEXA over 48 weeks, of switching from an INSTI-based regimen with either TDF or TAF to a regimen of ABC/DTG/3TC (administered as commercial Triumeq) in chronic HIV-infected patients over the age of 50

Terms in these criteria, in plain language(11)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

HIV

The human immunodeficiency virus, which weakens the immune system.

Many studies now accept people whose HIV is controlled on treatment, judged by the viral load and the CD4 count. Check the limits this study sets.

CD4 count

The number of CD4 cells, a type of white blood cell, in a given amount of blood. It is used to follow how well the immune system is doing in HIV.

Hepatitis B tests

Hepatitis B is a virus that infects the liver. These are separate tests: HBsAg positive usually means a current infection (a recent vaccination can briefly cause it too); total anti-HBc (HBcAb) positive means an infection now or in the past; HBV DNA measures how much virus is in the blood.

Some studies accept a past infection if HBV DNA is undetectable, sometimes with antiviral medicine during the study. Check what this study allows.

Cancer (malignancy)

Malignancy means cancer. Criteria about another or earlier malignancy ask whether you have had a different cancer, usually within a set number of years.

Some are commonly allowed, such as treated skin cancers other than melanoma and early cancers removed completely — check the exceptions this study lists.

Clinically significant

Judged by the study doctor to matter for your health or for the study. It is a doctor’s decision, so ask the study team if you are unsure whether something counts.

Child-Pugh class

A score of how well the liver works in people with liver disease such as cirrhosis: class A is mild, B moderate and C severe.

ALT and AST (liver enzymes)

Two enzymes measured in a routine blood test of the liver. Higher levels can mean the liver is under strain or damaged. SGPT and SGOT are older names for ALT and AST.

Criteria usually give a limit as a multiple of the upper limit of normal (ULN), often higher when cancer has spread to the liver.

ULN (upper limit of normal)

The top of the normal range for a blood test, as set by the laboratory that runs it. Each lab prints its own range next to your result.

“≤ 2.5 × ULN” means the result can be up to two and a half times that top value.

Bilirubin

A yellow substance made when red blood cells are broken down, which the liver clears. A high level can mean a problem with the liver or the bile ducts.

Criteria often allow more for people with Gilbert’s syndrome, a harmless inherited condition that raises bilirubin.

Creatinine clearance (CrCl)

How quickly the kidneys clear creatinine, a waste product, from the blood. A study may estimate it from a blood test with age, weight and sex (often by the Cockcroft–Gault formula), or measure it using blood and urine collected over a set time. Given in mL/min; higher is better.

QT and QTc

On an ECG, the QT interval is the time the heart’s lower chambers take to activate electrically and recover in each beat. QTc is that time adjusted for heart rate (QTcF by Fridericia’s formula, QTcB by Bazett’s). Some medicines lengthen it, and a long QTc can raise the risk of a dangerous heart rhythm.

The study may name a correction formula and a limit in milliseconds, often around 450–480.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Percent change from Baseline at Week 48 in total hip BMD (measured by DEXA)

    Time frame: 48 Weeks

  2. Percent change from Baseline at Week 48 in lumbar spine BMD (measured by DEXA)

    Time frame: 48 Weeks

Other outcomes

  1. Change from Baseline in bone biomarkers for individuals switching to ABC/DTG/3TC

    Time frame: 96 Weeks

  2. Change from baseline in bone mineral density (in lumbar spine and total hip) assessed by T-scores and Z-scores from Baseline in individuals switching to ABC/DTG/3TC

    Z-score = (Patient's BMD - expected BMD) / SD; T-score = (BMD-Reference BMD)/SD Units are numerical in value. BMD)/SD Units are numerical in value.

  3. Number of adverse events (including long-term virologic/immunologic responses, abnormal laboratory values, or untoward medical conditions) for individuals switching to ABC/DTG/3TC

    Time frame: 96 Weeks

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Sep 7, 2017, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
