Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Number of Participants With At-least One Adverse Event as a Measure of Safety Until Etravirine (ETR)-Based Treatment Regimen is Commercially Available
Up to 10 years and 11 months

An adverse event is any untoward medical event that occurs in a participant administered an investigational product, and it does not necessarily indicate only events with clear causal relationship with the relevant investigational product.

Proportion of Patients With at Least 1 Treatment-emergent Grade 1-4 Central Nervous System or Psychiatric Adverse Event
between baseline and 12 weeks

Proportion of patients with at least 1 treatment-emergent Grade 1-4 Central Nervous System or psychiatric Adverse Event, observed between Baseline through Week 12 and judged by investigator to be at least possibly related to the study drug in ETR group versus EFV group. All Adverse Events were graded according to the Division of AIDS Table for Grading the Severity of Adult and Pediatric Adverse Events ("DAIDS AE grading table"). Grade 1-4 covers all severities.

Frequently asked questions about Etravirine

What is Etravirine used for in HIV?

Etravirine is an investigational small molecule being studied for the treatment of HIV, HIV Infections, and HIV Infection. It is being developed by Johnson & Johnson (JNJ) and is currently in Phase 1 clinical development for these indications.

What does Etravirine target?

Etravirine is a small molecule being developed for HIV treatment. While its specific molecular target is not disclosed in the available information, it is being studied in combination with other antiretroviral agents in clinical trials for HIV-1 infected patients.

Who makes Etravirine?

Etravirine is being developed by Johnson & Johnson, a pharmaceutical company traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol JNJ. The company is conducting clinical trials to evaluate the drug's safety and efficacy in treating HIV infections.

What phase is Etravirine in?

Etravirine is currently in Phase 1 clinical development. While it has completed Phase 2 and Phase 3 trials, the most advanced ongoing development stage is Phase 1, indicating it remains investigational and is not yet approved by regulatory authorities.

What clinical trials is Etravirine in?

Etravirine has been studied in clinical trials including NCT00903682, a Phase 2 trial comparing its tolerability to efavirenz in treatment-naive HIV-1 patients, and NCT00980538, a Phase 3 continued access study in treatment-experienced participants. These trials are completed.

Is Etravirine the same as TMC125?

Etravirine is also known by the code name TMC125, as referenced in clinical trial NCT00980538. This alternative name is used in research contexts to identify the same investigational drug being developed for HIV treatment.
