| Scientific title | Effect of thienopyridine derivative (clopidogrel) on the disposition of efavirenz and neviparine in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) positive patients: a randomised single-phase multi-dose proof-of-concept study |
| Study objectives | The plasma concentration of non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTIs) (nevirapine and efavirenz) may be pharmacologically enhanced in-vivo through inhibition of CYP2B6 with clopidogrel. |
| Ethics approval(s) | National Research Ethics Service (Northwest Research Ethics Committee) (UK) approved on the 28th August 2009 (ref: 09/H1010/6) |
| Health condition(s) or problem(s) studied | Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) |
| Intervention | Study patients on nevirapine should be receiving 200 mg 12-hourly. Study patients on efavirenz who are taking 600 mg at night would be converted to 600 mg in the morning as follows: 400 mg mane, 200 mg nocte for 1 day, then 600 mg for 1 day followed by the study day. Study Day 1: Patients are fasted from midnight and attend at 08:00 hours without taking their pills. After breakfast and blood sampling for pharmacokinetic profiles patients would then be administered initial dose of clopidogrel (Plavix®, 75 mg once daily; Sanofi Synthelabo, Guildford, United Kingdom) and would self-administer the remaining dose at home for the remaining 6 days.

| Intervention type | Drug |
| Phase | Not Applicable |
| Drug / device / biological / vaccine name(s) | Efavirenz, nevirapine, clopidogrel |
| Primary outcome measure(s) |
Absolute change (demonstrated by significant difference) in plasma AUC of efavirenz alone or nevirapine alone if the respective 90% classical confidence interval for geometric mean ratio lies within 0.80 - 1.25 of the reference AUC 0 - 24 hours. |
| Key secondary outcome measure(s) |
1. Change in Cmax, Cmin, and weight-corrected apparent oral clearance (CL/F)/kg of efavirenz/nevirapine |
