Important factors associated with the development of HIV-related brain disease include therapeutic concentrations of antiretroviral drugs in the CNS. Conflicting evidence regarding the CNS exposure of the antiretroviral drug used for the encore1 study, efavirenz (EFV) have been described in related studies. There were recent study of two small series assessment of EFV exposure in the cerebral spinal fluid (CSF); one group reported small detectable EFV concentrations, while another observed undetectable EFV exposure in the CSF. Also, in a larger reported series comprising of 80 subjects on EFV-containing antiretroviral therapy, a CSF to plasma concentration suggested that there is limited movement of EFV out of the CSF. In HIV-1 infected subjects at steady state, EFV plasma level parameters are dose proportional following 200mg, 400mg, and 600mg daily doses. The CNS exposure of EFV at different daily dosing has not been described.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['CHILD', 'ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'minimumAge': '16 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* All subjects entering into the main study protocol at participating centres will be eligible to enter this sub-study.\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Existing neurological disease which in the opinion of the investigator would be a contra-indication to lumbar puncture examination\n* CNS opportunistic infections in the past 12 weeks of randomisation\n* Bacterial or viral meningitis in the past 12 weeks of randomisation\n* Head injury requiring medical assessment in the past 12 weeks of randomisation'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT01451333', 'acronym': 'ENCORE1-CNS', 'briefTitle': 'The Efavirenz (EFV) Central Nervous System Exposure Sub-study of Encore1', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER_GOV', 'fullName': 'Kirby Institute'}, 'officialTitle': 'The EFV Central Nervous System Exposure Sub-study of Encore1: A Randomised, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Clinical Trial to Compare the Safety and Efficacy of Reduced Dose Efavirenz (EFV) With Standard Dose EFV Plus Two Nucleotide Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitors (N(t)RTI) in Antiretroviral-naïve HIV-infected Individuals Over 96 Weeks', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': 'NCHECR-ENCORE1-CNS'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'EXPERIMENTAL', 'label': 'Reduced dose Efavirenz arm', 'description': "Patient's on main study that was randomised to receive TDF (300mg qd)/FTC (200mg qd) + EFV (400mg qd; 2 x 200mg + 1 x 200mg placebo qd).", 'interventionNames': ['Drug: Efavirenz']}, {'type': 'ACTIVE_COMPARATOR', 'label': 'Normal Efavirenz dose arm', 'description': "Patient's on main study randomised to receive tenofovir (TDF) (300mg qd)/emtricitabine (FTC) (200mg qd) + EFV (600mg qd; 3 x 200mg qd)", 'interventionNames': ['Drug: Efavirenz']}], 'interventions': [{'name': 'Efavirenz', 'type': 'DRUG', 'description': '600mg qd; 3 x 200mg qd', 'armGroupLabels': ['Normal Efavirenz dose arm']}, {'name': 'Efavirenz', 'type': 'DRUG', 'description': '400mg qd; 2 x 200mg', 'armGroupLabels': ['Reduced dose Efavirenz arm']}]}, 'contactsLocationsModule': {'locations': [{'zip': '10777', 'city': 'Berlin', 'state': 'State of Berlin', 'country': 'Germany', 'facility': 'Medical Group Practice', 'geoPoint': {'lat': 52.52437, 'lon': 13.41053}}, {'zip': '10330', 'city': 'Patumwan', 'state': 'Bangkok', 'country': 'Thailand', 'facility': 'HIVNAT Research Collaboration'}, {'zip': '40002', 'city': 'Khon Kaen', 'state': 'Changwat Khon Kaen', 'country': 'Thailand', 'facility': 'Khon Kaen University', 'geoPoint': {'lat': 16.44671, 'lon': 102.833}}, {'zip': 'W2 1NY', 'city': 'Clinical Trials Centre, Winston Churchil Wing', 'state': 'London', 'country': 'United Kingdom', 'facility': "Imperial College, St. Mary's Hospital"}, {'zip': 'SW10 9NH', 'city': 'Hiv/gum Laboratory 5th Floor Saint Stephen Centre', 'state': 'London', 'country': 'United Kingdom', 'facility': 'Chelsea and Westminster Hospital'}], 'overallOfficials': [{'name': 'Alan Winston, Dr.', 'role': 'PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR', 'affiliation': 'Imperial College London'}]}, 'sponsorCollaboratorsModule': {'leadSponsor': {'name': 'Kirby Institute', 'class': 'OTHER_GOV'}, 'collaborators': [{'name': 'Imperial College London', 'class': 'OTHER'}], 'responsibleParty': {'type': 'SPONSOR'}}}}
