What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

Study groups in NCT01078233
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Raltegravir CohortParticipants with HIV-1 infection who started raltegravir on or after 21 December 2007 (the authorization date in the European Union) and had at least 1 month prospective follow-up in the Raltegravir Cohort. Participants from the Historical Cohort and Concurrent Cohort were eligible for inclusion in the Raltegravir Cohort.
Historical CohortParticipants with HIV-1 infection who started a new antiretroviral drug as part of a combination antiretroviral therapy (cART) regimen on or after 1 January 2006 and before 21 December 2007. Participants had no previous exposure to the new drug and had at least 1 month prospective follow-up in the Historical Cohort.
Concurrent CohortParticipants with HIV-1 infection who started a new antiretroviral drug other than raltegravir as part of a cART regimen on or after 21 December 2007. Participants had no previous exposure to the new drug and had at least 1 month prospective follow-up in the Concurrent Cohort. Participants from the Historical Cohort were eligible for inclusion in the Concurrent Cohort.

What is being measured

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

  1. Incidence of Malignancy

    All-type malignancy, including both Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS)-defining and non-AIDS-defining malignancy, was evaluated. Only the first occurrence of any malignancy type was counted for each participant.

    Measured: Historical Cohort: up to 24 months (January 2006 to December 2007); Raltegravir and Concurrent Cohorts: up to 68 months (December 2007 to July 2013)

  2. Incidence of Clinically Important Hepatic Events

    Clinically important hepatic events were defined as either 1) hepatic encephalopathy (stage III or IV), or 2) discontinuation of raltegravir use where liver toxicity was listed as the reason for discontinuation.

    Measured: Historical Cohort: up to 24 months (January 2006 to December 2007); Raltegravir and Concurrent Cohorts: up to 68 months (December 2007 to July 2013)

  3. Incidence of Lipodystrophy

    Lipodystrophy events were defined as the first report for either 1) loss of fat from extremities, buttocks, or face, or 2) accumulation of fat in abdomen, neck, breasts, or other defined location.

    Measured: Historical Cohort: up to 24 months (January 2006 to December 2007); Raltegravir and Concurrent Cohorts: up to 68 months (December 2007 to July 2013)

  4. Incidence of All-Cause Mortality

    All participant deaths were recorded

    Measured: Historical Cohort: up to 24 months (January 2006 to December 2007); Raltegravir and Concurrent Cohorts: up to 68 months (December 2007 to July 2013)
