Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study is being done to assess the safety of lopinavir/ritonavir in patients with PLWH with AIN. 30 participants will be recruited and can expect to be on active study for approximately 3 months and long term follow up for 40 weeks.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This is a Phase I modified 3 + 3 design, in which the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) will be identified. The 3 + 3 dose escalation will consist of 6 dose levels (18 participants; planned escalation described in arms below) in combination with variation in dosing schedules of the drug lopinavir/ritonavir. This design also allows for some possible intermediate doses to be examined if dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) occur and de-escalation is needed.

An expansion cohort of 12 participants will occur at the MTD. Once the MTD is determined, then secondary outcomes will be evaluated.

Primary Objective

* To evaluate the safety and tolerability of intra-anal administration of lopinavir/ritonavir, administered via suppository with 3 different schedules, in PLWH with high-grade anal intraepithelial neoplasia (HGAIN) (AIN 2/3).

Secondary Objectives

* To measure the effect of intra-anal topical lopinavir/ritonavir administration
* To evaluate clearance of human papillomavirus (HPV)
* To elucidate the mechanism of action of protease inhibitors
