Summary

This trial evaluates the effects of long-term injectable HIV drugs on children, to measure safety, tolerability and acceptability.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for HIV-positive children aged 2 to less than 12 years, weighing between 10 and <40 kgs, with a stable ART regimen for at least six months. They must have an undetectable viral load and no history of treatment failure or resistance to certain HIV drugs. Children with bleeding disorders, needle phobia, active tuberculosis, significant heart conditions or seizures are excluded.
What is being tested?
The study tests the safety and effectiveness of oral tablets versus long-acting injectables of two HIV medications: Cabotegravir (CAB) and Rilpivirine (RPV). It aims to understand how these treatments work in young children who already have controlled HIV.
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include reactions at injection sites for the injectables, potential liver issues, allergic reactions to medication components, gastrointestinal disturbances like nausea or vomiting, fatigue and headaches. The severity can vary among individuals.
