About this study

Official title: Transversal Study, Prospective, to Evaluate the Prevalence and Factors Associated With Hypogonadism in HIV + Men

Testosterone deficiency is classically associated with the development of metabolic syndrome, osteoporosis, erectile disorder and / or a reduced libido, a depressive syndrome and alteration of the quality of patients life.

Chronicity of HIV infection leads to several disorders as fever, chronic stress, weight loss and cachexia which are the cause of hypogonadotropic hypogonadism. On the other hand, abnormal secretion of cytokines, secondary to the infection may alter the Leydig cells causing a hypergonadotropic hypogonadism and disrupts steroidogenesis. Cases of testicular invasion by lymphoma or Kaposi's syndromes have also been described.

The advent of antiretroviral therapy has reduced the prevalence of hypogonadism in patients infected with HIV that is currently about 20%. This prevalence remains about 20%, regardless of the antiretroviral therapy and CD4-T cell count.

No study to our knowledge has so far assessed exhaustively the clinical features, biological, therapeutic and paraclinical of hypotestosteronemiae while assessing the level of total serum testosterone, SHBG and serum free testosterone, among HIV infected patients in the European population.

Read the detailed description

Assess the prevalence and clinical, biological, paraclinical and therapeutic factors associated with primary or secondary hypogonadism in HIV treated and virologically suppressed patients.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Hypogonadism and HIV, run by Tourcoing Hospital 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 6 inclusion and 11 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 17 Sep 2018. 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?

Testosteron Level (time frame: up to 1 year). 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 17 Sep 2018.
