NCT ID NCT01784302

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed This study
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Summary

This study asks whether common antacids or multivitamins change how the body absorbs raltegravir, an HIV medication. Healthy adult volunteers will take raltegravir alone and alongside different antacids or a multivitamin, with blood samples measuring drug levels over 12 hours. The goal is to see if these everyday products interfere with the drug, which could help optimize dosing for people living with HIV.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Raltegravir, an HIV medication, given with or without antacids (Maalox Plus, sodium bicarbonate) or multivitamins
What this could lead to
If it works, this could lead to better dosing guidance for people with HIV who need antacids or multivitamins, ensuring their medication works effectively.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage study in healthy volunteers, not people with HIV. Results may not reflect real-world use, and the interaction may be minimal or vary by individual.
