Trial summary

The aim of this trial is to evaluate the impact on fat distribution of switching to NRTI-sparing regimens in lipoatrophic antiretroviral experienced patients with complete viral suppression.

About this study

Official title: A Randomized Prospective Study Evaluating the Impact on Fat Distribution of NRTI-Sparing Regimens in Antiretroviral Experienced Patients With Lipoatrophy ANRS 108 NONUKE Study

The aim of this trial is to evaluate the impact on fat distribution of switching to NRTI-sparing regimens in lipoatrophic antiretroviral experienced patients with complete viral suppression.

Maintenance of virological suppression and immunological factors are also assessed.

Read the detailed description

Limitations on achieving complete HIV eradication render it necessary to maintain highly active antiretroviral treatment over long periods, which may lead to the development of antiretroviral-associated toxicities. The current standard-of-care HAART regimens include a backbone of 2 nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs). Many studies have demonstrated that NRTIs particularly thymidine analogue nucleosides are important contributors to the development of lipoatrophy. This antiretroviral family inhibits also the mitochondrial gamma-DNA polymerase, which leads to mitochondrial dysfunction and side effects such as peripheral neuropathy, pancreatitis and liver dysfunction.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Evolution from inclusion to week 48 of the peripheral fat tissue measured on computed tomography (CT) scan by a volumetric fat centralized evaluation of the thighs

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Evolution of the viral load (VL) from inclusion to week 48 and proportion of patients with a VL over 400 copies/ml at week 48

  2. Change in CD4 cell count between day 0 (D0) and week 48

  3. Change in lipid profile and glucidic metabolism between D0 and week 48

  4. Evolution of SAT/TAT and VAT/TAT between D0 and week 48

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors, nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors and protease inhibitors in people with HIV Infections and HIV Lipodystrophy Syndrome, run by French National Agency for Research on AIDS and Viral Hepatitis at 1 site in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 9 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Nov 2005. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early. Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Evolution from inclusion to week 48 of the peripheral fat tissue measured on computed tomography (CT) scan by a volumetric fat centralized evaluation of the thighs. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 15 Nov 2005.
