Example of Trials Managed

HPTN 084 is a Phase III, international Investigational New Drug (IND) study evaluating the safety and efficacy of CAB LA (long-acting injectable cabotegravir) in women. HPTN 084 was launched in November 2017. Twenty clinical sites in sub-Saharan Africa are participating in the study. Ms. Farrior managed the fast-tracked HPTN 084 protocol development process and submission to the South African Health Products Regulatory Agency (SAHPRA). She works closely with the study team which includes two African Study Chairs, staff from the National Institutes of Health (NIH)/National Institute of Allergies and Infectious Diseases (NIAID)/Division of AIDS (DAIDS), the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation (BMGF) and two pharmaceutical partners, Gilead Sciences and ViiV Healthcare. In November 2020, the Data and Safety Monitoring Board (DSMB) halted the blinded portion of HPTN 084 for efficacy; during the same month CAB LA gained “breakthrough” status by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). In December 2021, the FDA granted full approval to CAB LA. Subsequently, the European Medicines Agency (EMA) also approved CAB LA. HPTN 084 continues in an open-label extension phase and is currently evaluating the safety and pharmacokinetics of CAB LA in pregnant women and their infants.

CoVPN 3501 was a Phase III, IND, domestic study evaluating a monoclonal antibody (mAb) for prevention of SARS-CoV-2 infection and COVID-19 symptom reduction. CoVPN 3501 was conducted in skilled nursing facilities (SNFs) across the United States using NIAID investigators who remotely oversaw clinical staff provided by the sponsor, Eli Lilly. Clinical staff and all materials required for study implementation were deployed to SNFs using Mobile Research Units (MRUs). Ms. Farrior worked with the Eli Lilly team to develop the protocol, launch it at an unprecedented pace, and find implementation solutions.  The main phase of the study fielded in August 2020 and successfully completed enrollment in November 2020. Although Bamlanivimab was initially granted Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) by the FDA,the EUA was later revoked because the mAb is not effective against Omicron variants.
