Summary

The purpose of this study was to assess the safety, tolerability, antiviral activity, and pharmacokinetics of long-acting cabotegravir (CAB LA) plus the broadly neutralizing monoclonal antibody VRC-HIVMAB075-00-AB (VRC07-523LS), in adults living with HIV-1 with suppressed plasma viremia.

Eligibility Criteria

Step 1 Inclusion Criteria:

  • Individual with HIV-1
  • On a three-drug ART regimen for at least 8 weeks that includes a boosted protease inhibitor (PI), a nonnuceloside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI), or an integrase inhibitor (INSTI) plus two nuclesodie reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTI) with no history of switch due to virologic failure.
  • CD4+ cell count greater than or equal to 350 cells/mm^3
  • Virally suppressed ( 98% using the Monogram PhenoSense Assay
  • Certain laboratory values obtained within 60 days prior to study entry and in an acceptable range
  • For participants of child-bearing potential:
  • A negative serum or urine pregnancy test within 48 hours prior to study entry
  • If participating in sexual activity that could lead to pregnancy, must agree to use an effective form of contraception.
  • Negative HBsAg result
  • Negative hepatitis C virus antibody
  • Ability and willingness to provide written informed consent

Step 1 Exclusion Criteria:

  • Any previous receipt of humanized or human monoclonal antibody (licensed or investigational).
  • Weight greater than 115 kg or less than 53 kg.
  • AIDS-defining illness within 60 days prior to study entry.
  • History of a severe allergic reaction within 2 years prior to study entry.
  • Currently breastfeeding or pregnant.
  • Active drug or alcohol use or dependence that would interfere with adherence to study requirements.
  • Acute or serious illness that requires systemic treatment, quarantine, and/or hospitalization within 30 days prior to entry.
  • Use of immunomodulators (e.g., interleukins, interferons, cyclosporine), HIV vaccine, systemic cytotoxic chemotherapy, or investigational therapy within 60 days prior to study entry.
  • Treatment for hepatitis C within 24 weeks prior to study entry.
  • Vaccinations within 7 days prior to study entry.
  • Initiation of ART during acute HIV-1 infection (as determined by the site investigator by history and/or available medical records).
  • Personal or known family history of prolonged QT syndrome or a clinically significant finding on the screening electrocardiogram (ECG) based on an assessment of the screening ECG by that site investigator.
  • Unstable liver disease or known biliary abnormalities
  • Moderate or severe hepatic impairment (Class B or C) as determined by Child-Pugh classification.
  • History of seizures or treatment for seizures within the past 2 years prior to study entry.
  • Current acute illness that in the opinion of the investigator will prevent the participant from complying with study visits.

Step 2 Inclusion Criteria:

  • HIV-1 RNA less than 50 copies/mL at week 4 (Step 1), or HIV-1 RNA of 50-199 copies/mL at week 4 followed by HIV-1 RNA less than 50 copies/mL at week 5 (Step 1).
  • For participants of child-bearing potential:
  • A negative serum or urine pregnancy test within 48 hours prior to step 2 entry
  • If participating in sexual activity that could lead to pregnancy, continued agreement to use an effective form of contraception.

Step 2 Exclusion Criteria:

  • Discontinuation or temporary hold of oral CAB or NRTIs for greater than 7 consecutive days for any reason during Step 1.
  • Grade 3 or 4 adverse event thought to be related to oral CAB during Step 1 according to the site investigator.
  • Vaccination (e.g., influenza) within 7 days prior to the Step 2 registration.
  • Currently breastfeeding or pregnant.
  • Any greater than or equal to Grade 2 ALT (greater than 2.5 times ULN) that developed during Step 1.

Step 3 Inclusion Criterion:

  • Received any CAB LA or VRC07-523LS during Step 2.

Step 3 Exclusion Criterion:

  • None
