  Purpose

Raltegravir is a potent antiretroviral agent that could be used as an alternative to efavirenz in HIV-1 infected patients with tuberculosis. However due to pharmacokinetic interactions, the optimal dose of raltegravir to be used in combination with rifampin is currently unknown.

This phase II open-label randomized multicenter trial is designed to estimate the antiviral efficacy of two doses of raltegravir and one dose of efavirenz at week 24, in HIV-1 naive patients co-infected with active tuberculosis (TB) treated with rifampin.

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • Virologic success, using Time to Loss of Virologic Response (TLOVR) algorithm: -Plasma HIV RNA below 50 copies/ml at week 20, confirmed at week 24 -Absence of permanent treatment discontinuation -Absence of death -Still follow-up at week 24 [ Time Frame: 24 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • Proportion of patients with virologic response with the following definitions: - Plasma HIV RNA <50 copies/ml at week 24 - Rate of strategy discontinuation and treatment changes - Proportion of death - Proportion of patients loss to follow-up [ Time Frame: 24 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Proportion of patients with virologic response with the following definitions: o Plasma HIV RNA <50 copies/ml o Plasma HIV RNA <400 copies/ml [ Time Frame: 24 and 48 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Evolution in HIV RNA and HIV DNA (total and 2 LTR circular) from baseline to week 48 [ Time Frame: 48 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Rate of viral resistance mutations in the plasma at the time of virologic failure and in comparison with HIV-RNA mutations at W0 [ Time Frame: At the time of virologic failure ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Evolution of CD4 cell counts from baseline to week 48 [ Time Frame: 48 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Frequency, type and time to a new AIDS-defining event or death [ Time Frame: Through out the trial ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
  • Frequency, type, time to grade 3 or 4 adverse event [ Time Frame: Through out the trial ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
  • Rate of success of TB treatment [ Time Frame: 48 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Anti-TB resistance rate [ Time Frame: 48 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Evolution of raltegravir and efavirenz trough concentration [ Time Frame: Through out the trial ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
