About this study

This study is being done to examine lung function changes in individuals with HIV infection and to understand why individuals with HIV have increased risk of lung damage from cigarette smoking.

Read the detailed description

To delineate the natural history of HIV associated emphysema in the HAART era. To compare the alveolar macrophage proteomes from HIV-seropositive smokers with emphysema to the alveolar macrophages proteomes of both HIV+ smokers without emphysema and HIV- smokers.

To establish whether coinfection with HIV and Hepatitis C results in accelerated lung disease manifested by decrements in forced expiratory volume and carbon monoxide diffusing capacity.

What is being measured

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

  1. examine the natural history of smoking related lung damage in patients with HIV

    HIV-Seropositive individuals are at increased risk of developing pulmonary emphysema (1,2). With improved therapy for HIV, and increased life expectancy in this population with a high smoking prevalence, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) may assume an increasingly important role with respect to health related quality of life and medical complications. This research will provide a unique opportunity to examine the natural history of smoking related lung damage in patients with HIV infection. In addition, this research will involve sampling of lung cells to determine if there are unique proteins present that may be related to the increased risk of emphysema in this population. This may shed important insight into how the lung responds to injury and how it repairs itself. If critical proteins can be identified, treatment strategies may eventually be developed to either decrease proteins causing injury or increase protective proteins.

    Measured: 3 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of HIV and Emphysema, run by Philip Diaz at 1 site in United States.

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 4 inclusion and 3 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 Nov 2021. 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 United States. 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.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

examine the natural history of smoking related lung damage in patients with HIV (time frame: 3 years). 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 1 Nov 2021.
