Trial summary

Immune Activation persists in HIV-1 infected patients despite efficient antiretroviral treatment. This immune activation is responsible for immune deficiency as well as for non-AIDS related comorbidities, such as non-alcoholic Fatty liver disease, metabolic syndrome or osteoporosis.

About this study

Official title: Immune Activation in HIV-1 Infected Patients Under AntiRetroviral Treatment: Etiologic Factors, Forms and Potential Association With Chronic Comorbidities Unrelated to Immune Deficiency.

Immune Activation persists in HIV-1 infected patients despite efficient antiretroviral treatment. This immune activation is responsible for immune deficiency as well as for non-AIDS related comorbidities, such as non-alcoholic Fatty liver disease, metabolic syndrome or osteoporosis. The goal of this observational transversal multicentric study is to establish the etiologic factors of persistent immune activation in treated HIV-1 infected patients (persistent de novo infection of T CD4+ cells, microbial translocation, active coinfections, immunosenescence, T CD4+ cells lymphopenia, Treg deficiency), its different forms ( activation of T CD4+ cells, T CD8+ cells, B cells, NK cells, monocytes, granulocytes, platelets, endothelial cells or general inflammation) and the potential correlation between causes, forms of immune activation and emergent comorbidities (kidney, bone or liver dysfunction, metabolic syndrome).

These correlations could highlight physiopathologic mechanisms relating a specific cause of immune activation, activation of a specific subpopulation of immune cells and a comorbidity. Physiopathologic mechanisms could then be tested in vitro and lead into new therapeutic tracks of immune activation secondary to HIV-1 or to the natural ageing process.

What is being measured

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

  1. Infection of novo persistent

    Etiologic factors of persistent immune activation in treated HIV-1 infected patients (obstinacy of the infection of new cells T CD4 +, microbial translocation, active coinfection, immunosenescence, lymphopenia T CD4 +, deficit in lymphocytes Treg) on a day: the day of the inclusion

    Measured: Infection of novo persistent the day of inclusion

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Microbial translocation

    Microbial translocation (DNA bacterial plasma derivative)

    Measured: Microbial translocation the day of inclusion

  2. Diagnosis immunizing activation

    Activation T CD4 and T CD8, B, NK

    Measured: Diagnosis immunizing activation the day of inclusion

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Blood test in people with Immune Deficiency and HIV-related Gut Disease - Cause Unknown, run by University Hospital, Montpellier 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 9 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Nov 2015. 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.

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?

Infection of novo persistent (time frame: Infection of novo persistent the day of inclusion). 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 20 Nov 2015.
