Brief summary

This study will investigate changes in insulin resistance, lipid metabolism and endocrine profile in HIV-negative subjects exposed to dolutegravir (an antiretroviral drug used in HIV treatment) in order to investigate the role all these different factors may potentially have in weight gain recently reported in clinical cohorts.

Detailed description

A randomised, crossover study investigating the difference in changes in insulin sensitivity (determined by peripheral glucose uptake using a euglycaemic clamp) with the administration of dolutegravir (DTG) compared to no DTG for 28 days in HIV seronegative healthy volunteers. Participants will be randomised 1:1 to one of two arms: Group 1: * Dolutegravir 50 mg once daily for the first 28 days of the study. * No treatment for the last 44 days of the study. Group 2: * No treatment for the first 28 days of the study. * Dolutegravir 50 mg once daily for the last 28 days of the study (day 44-72). Research bloods, endocrine profiles, weight and urine samples will be collected at baseline, as well as day 28, 44, and 72 to enable comparative analyses. Participants will be closely monitored whilst taking the study medications. Participants will exit the study 72 days post-randomisation, with a follow-up call 28 days after exiting.

Intervention model description

Subjects will be randomised to start on dolutegravir 50 mg once daily OR no treatment for the first 28 day dosing phase of the study then will cross over to the alternative for the second dosing phase, following a 2 week washout period (equivalent to 5+ dolutegravir elimination half-lives).
