Summary

This is a 24 week placebo controlled, double-blind, 2-arm study of ADAPTAVIR, Monomeric Dala1-peptide T-amide (mDAPTA) compared to placebo, in HIV infected individuals with suppressed plasma viral loads \< 200 copies/ml by highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) treatment for at least 3 months prior to entry with at least 6 continuous months of HAART treatment preceding entry. 20 treatment and 20 placebo individuals will be enrolled in each arm. The study duration is 24 weeks on placebo or mDAPTA administered intranasally at 0.01 mg two times a day.

The main (intent to treat) analysis is planned for the 24 week endpoint. The virological outcomes of interest in the present study are infectious virus recoverable from cellular (PBMC) sources and cellular viral mRNA and DNA copy numbers. Immune outcomes (plasma cytokines) associated with HIV disease, HIV replication, or immune function will be studied.

  • HIV Infections

Interventions

DRUG

Adaptavir (monomeric DAPTA)

Intranasal (IN) Solution: 20 mL of solution in a 20 mL polyethylene screw top vial to which a metered sprayer is adapted. Each spray releases approximately 0.1 0.12 mL. Available strength - 0.01mg/mI (active study medication), or no mDAPTA (placebo study medication), in water containing 0.25% benzyl alcohol as preservative and 250 mM mannitol (GRAS) to achieve isotonicity. Individuals in this study will be randomized to receive mDAPTA or placebo and be instructed to administer four metered nasal spray applications two times a day, in the morning, and in the evening, as close to 12 hours after the morning dose as practical. The planned daily dose of mDAPTA is 8 μg/day.
