A randomized, four-arm open label Phase IIb clinical trial to evaluate the Pharmacokinetics, Safety/tolerability and Efficacy of High Dose Rifampicin in TB-HIV co-infected patients on Efavirenz- or dolutegravir-based antiretroviral therapy (SAEFRIF)
REFNo: HS262ES
Primary objective
1. To determine the effect of a high dose of rifampicin (35 mg/kg orally) on the pharmacokinetics of first-line antiretroviral drugs (efavirenz and dolutegravir) in TB-HIV co-infected patients on TB treatment.
Secondary objectives
1. To investigate the safety/tolerability of a high dose of rifampicin in TB-HIV co-infected patients on TB treatment and first-line antiretroviral therapies.
2. To determine if TB-HIV co-infected patients on a high dose of rifampicin are more likely to have negative sputum cultures by the end of the intensive phase of TB treatment than patients on standard-dose rifampicin.
3. To explore the relationships between exposure to rifampicin, efavirenz and dolutegravir and the tolerability and efficacy of these drugs (Pharmacokinetic-Pharmacodynamic analysis).
