  Purpose

The purpose of this pilot study is to evaluate efficacy and safety of addition of IL-2 to pegylated interferon alpha 2a and ribavirin in HIV-HCV coinfected patients non-responders after three months of standard therapy with pegylated interferon alpha 2a and ribavirin. IL-2 may enhance numbers and function of CD4 T lymphocytes and specific anti-HCV immune responses and could participate to the control of HCV replication

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • Sustained virologic response, defined by undetectable serum HCV-RNA at week 72, six months after the end of treatment; Safety of IL-2 in combination with pegylated interferon and ribavirin

Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • Virologic response at the end of treatment at week 48, Biochemical response, CD4 cell counts and HIV-RNA plasma levels from baseline to week 72

Estimated Enrollment: 75
Study Start Date: April 2003
Estimated Study Completion Date: November 2006
Detailed Description:

This pilot study evaluate efficacy and safety of addition of IL-2 to pegylated interferon alpha 2a and ribavirin in HIV-HCV coinfected patients non-responders after three months of standard therapy with pegylated interferon alpha 2a and ribavirin Eligible patients should have CD4 cells count higher than 300/mm³ if pretreated by antiretroviral therapy or higher than 400/mm³ if naive of antiretroviral therapy, Metavir score with histological fibrosis score F1, F2 or F3. Recombinant IL-2 will be given subcutaneously at a dose of 3 MUI twice daily for 5 days every 8 weeks for 5 cycles from week 14 to week 46. This national multicenter study will enroll around 75 patients in order to give IL-2 to 20 non-responders. The primary endpoint is sustained virologic response, defined by undetectable serum HCV-RNA at week 72, six months after the end of therapy
