RECRUITING

CROSSOVER STUDY OF ON-DEMAND PREP FORMULATIONS COMPARING RECTAL AND ORAL TENOFOVIR

Conditions

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

This is a Phase 2, multi-site, two-period, open label randomized crossover (Period 1 and 2) study. Participants are randomized 1:1 to one of two 8-week on-demand product sequences - TFV douche then oral F/TDF or oral F/TDF then TFV douche - with a 2 to 4-week washout period in between. Domains of safety, acceptability, adherence, and PK/PD (sub-study only) are assessed for each product.

  16. 2. Willing to abstain from insertion of anything (e.g., drug/medication, penis, object, sex toy, or enema including take-home enema) into the anorectum for 72 hours before study drug dose and until 72 hours after each flexible sigmoidoscopy with biopsy collection, or one week after the study drug dose, whichever is later
  17. 3. Willing and able to use specific condoms and lubricant provided by the study clinic for all RAI for the duration of participation
  1. 1. Any reactive/positive HIV test at screening or at least one reactive/positive test result at enrollment, even if HIV infection is not confirmed
  2. 2. History of active (including chronic) hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection, as documented by positive HBV surface antigen (HBsAg) at screening
  3. 3. Co-enrollment in any other interventional research study that may interfere with this study (as provided by self-report or other available documentation). Exceptions may be made after consultation with the Clinical Management Committee (CMC).
  4. 4. ≥ Grade 2 laboratory abnormality at baseline as defined by The Division of AIDS Table for Grading the Severity of Adult and Pediatric Adverse Events, Version 2.1 dated July 2017, except for estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), which must be \>75 mL/ min. (Coagulation (PT/INR) results ≥ Grade 2 are not exclusionary for the main study).
  5. 5. Significant colorectal symptom(s) as determined by medical history or by participant self-report (including but not limited to presence of any unresolved injury, infectious or inflammatory condition of the local mucosa, history of inflammatory bowel disease, presence of symptomatic external hemorrhoids, and presence of any painful anorectal conditions that would be tender to manipulation)

Such conditions may include, but are not limited to, current or recent history of severe, progressive, or uncontrolled substance abuse, or renal, hepatic, hematological, gastrointestinal, endocrine, pulmonary, neurological, or cerebral disease
  18. 1. Current medically-indicated use of warfarin or heparin or other anticoagulant medications associated with increased risk for bleeding following mucosal biopsy (e.g., daily high dose aspirin \[\>81 mg\], non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs \[NSAIDs\], or Pradaxa®)
