OVERVIEW
A Phase 1b Study to Evaluate the Safety and Pharmacokinetics of Bictegravir/Emtricitabine/Tenofovir Alafenamide (B/F/TAF) in Neonates Exposed to HIV-1
PROTOCOL SUMMARY
The goal of this clinical study is to learn more about the study drug, Bictegravir/Emtricitabine/Tenofovir Alafenamide (B/F/TAF), safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics (how B/F/TAF is absorbed, modified, distributed, and removed from the body of the participants) in neonates exposed to human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1). The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and plasma pharmacokinetics (PK) (how B/F/TAF is absorbed, modified, distributed, and removed from the body of the participants) of B/F/TAF tablet for oral suspension (TOS) in full-term neonates exposed to HIV-1 but uninfected.
