Antibody boost may help infants suppress HIV faster

NCT ID NCT07655141

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 This study
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
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 Results may not be published yet.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

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This trial tests whether adding two lab-made antibodies (ePGT121v1-LS and VRC07-523-LS) to standard antiretroviral therapy can help infants living with HIV achieve viral suppression. Infants up to one year old in Mozambique and Cameroon receive four injections of the antibodies or a placebo over 48 weeks. Researchers monitor safety, how the body processes the antibodies, and whether the combination leads to faster or more sustained viral suppression compared to standard treatment alone.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
broadly neutralizing antibodies (ePGT121v1-LS and VRC07-523-LS)
What this could lead to
If successful, this approach could help infants with HIV achieve viral suppression more quickly and reliably, potentially reducing long-term health complications.
What could go wrong
This is an early-phase trial with a small number of participants, so results may not apply to all infants. The antibodies are given as injections, which may cause side effects or discomfort.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * Infants from 1 to 365 days old at the time of enrolment. * Living with HIV-1, diagnosed with an approved assay detecting HIV nucleic acids in blood. * Weight \> 2.5 kg at enrolment. * ART-naïve or ≤ 30 days of triple ART at screening (not including prophylaxis in HIV-exposed). * Clinically stable and can be managed as outpatient (participants identified in-hospital can start the trial at their first routine visit). * Parent or legal guardian able to provide Informed consent (IC). Exclusion Criteria: * Participation in other concurrent research studies that, in the opinion of the principal investigator and central team, would interfere with the objectives of this study. * Previous receipt of bNAbs against HIV. * Serious Adverse Reactions (SARs) to the investigational medicinal product (IMP) or its components. * Intravenous (IV) immunoglobulins received within 90 days before IMP administration. * Any clinically significant acute or chronic illness or condition at screening that, in the opinion of the principal investigator/designee, renders the participant unfit to participate in the study or jeopardizes the safety or rights of the participant. Including, but not restricted to: * Evidence of active tuberculosis (TB) disease at the time of enrolment. * Life-threatening condition associated with a high risk of death within 30 days of enrolment, as determined by the study clinician. * Severe acute malnutrition with complications. * Severe neurological illness. * Hemodynamically significant severe congenital heart disease. * Active malignancies. * Life-threatening bleeding disorder. * Use of systemic immunosuppressive drugs within 30 days before first IMP administration. Not exclusionary: nasal steroid spray, inhaled steroids, topical steroids, a single course of oral/parenteral prednisone or equivalent at 2 mg/kg/day, and length of therapy \<14 days. * Unwillingness to have blood drawn * Unable to receive SC medications. * Chronic or recurrent urticaria or any other chronic dermatological condition that may be confused with local Adverse Reactions (ARs). Any social or medical condition in the caregivers that, in the judgement of the investigator, would interfere with protocol adherence, completion of the trial or assessment of safety.
