Trial summary

The objective of this study is to evaluate changes in Framingham score (from low to moderate, from moderate to high) based on changes in lipid profile and other parameters from baseline to 48 weeks of HAART in naïve patients or patients in second line of treatment, considering LPV/r vs EFV based HAART.

Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: HIV-infected patients with first line HAART with EFV or LPV/r or second line HAART with LPV/r

Who may be able to join

  • HIV positive patients (confirmation with ELISA + W. blot required).
  • Age ≥ 18 years.
  • Naïve or experienced with antiretroviral drugs.
  • LPV/r or EFV as first line regimen.
  • In patients with a LPV/r second line HAART regimen, prior exposure to any NNRTI regimen is acceptable.
  • Time of exposure to LPV/r or EFV of at least 48 weeks.

Who cannot join

  • Age < 18 yrs.
  • Already LPV/r treatment at admission in our institution (that prevents assessment of baseline lipid profile and CV risk when patient receives the "first dose" of either LPV/r )
  • Patients that had received LPV/r only during they pregnancy.

About this study

Official title: Retrospective Analysis on the Risk of Cardiovascular (CV) Events in HIV- Infected Subjects From Latin America Treated With a Lopinavir/Ritonavir (LPV/r) Based HAART Regimen vs. an Efavirenz (EFV) Based HAART Regimen

The objective of this study is to evaluate changes in Framingham score (from low to moderate, from moderate to high) based on changes in lipid profile and other parameters from baseline to 48 weeks of HAART in naïve patients or patients in second line of treatment, considering LPV/r vs EFV based HAART. The null hyphotesis is that there is an increased Framingham score in patients treated with LPV/r as second line treatment and in patients treated with LPV/r or EFV regimen as first line treatments.

Read the detailed description

Study design and duration: Retrospective comparative study. Estimated time of enrollment: 12 months.

Procedure: Retrospective review of clinical charts: LPV/r (n = 100) and EFV (a randomly selected representative sample of patients under EFV treatment: 200 patients approximately.). Each patient can only be included in one arm of the study (cannot switch EFV to LPV/r or from LPV/r to EFV)

Subject population

LPV/r (n = 100) and EFV (a randomly selected representative sample of patients under EFV treatment: 200 patients approximately.). Each patient can only be included in one arm of the study (cannot switch EFV to LPV/r or from LPV/r to EFV)

Study Objectives:

Primary Objectives

1)Changes in Framingham score (from low to moderate, from moderate to high) based on changes in lipid profile and other parameters from baseline to 48 weeks of HAART in naïve patients or patients in second line of treatment Secondary Objectives

  1. Risk assessment hazard of CV events in HIV- infected subjects treated with a LPV/r as second line and EFV and LPV/r first line based HAART regimen in the whole population under study and in the female and male subpopulations.
  2. Assessment for 10- year risk of developing hard cardiovascular events (myocardial infarction and coronary death) in HIV- infected subjects treated with a LPV/r ( 1° o 2° line) and EFV first line based HAART regimen
  3. Overall mortality (including CV events) in HIV- infected subjects treated with a LPV/r as second line and EFV and LPV/r first line based HAART regimen
  4. Evolution of lipid profile (total cholesterol, HDL, LDL and triglicerides) and lipid lowering agents requirement: baseline vs. 48 weeks after the initiation of a LPV/r second line based HAART regimen and those on an LPV/r and EFV first line based HAART regimen
  5. Assesment of CD4 T-cell count and viral load at baseline and at 48 weeks in each regimen.

What is being measured

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

  1. Risk for CV events

    Changes in Framingham risk for CV events (from low to moderate, from moderate to high) based on changes in lipid parameters from baseline at 6, 12, Q12 months after the initiation of a LPV/r based HAART regimen in the whole population under study.Participants will be followed for an average of 24 months .

    Measured: Per year

  2. Risk for CV events

    Changes in Framingham risk for CV events (from low to moderate, from moderate to high) based on changes in lipid parameters from baseline at 6, 12, Q12 months after the initiation of a LPV/r based HAART regimen in male subpopulation.Participants will be followed for an average of 24 months .

    Measured: Per year

  3. Risk for CV events

    Changes in Framingham risk for CV events (from low to moderate, from moderate to high) based on changes in lipid parameters from baseline at 6, 12, Q12 months after the initiation of a LPV/r based HAART regimen in female subpopulation. Participants will be followed for an average of 24 months .

    Measured: Per year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of HIV and Hypercholesterolemia, run by Helios Salud at 1 site in Argentina.

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 6 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Oct 2012. 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 Argentina. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Risk for CV events (time frame: Per year). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01705873, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 12 Oct 2012.
