About this study

Official title: Vitamin D and Calcium Supplement Attenuate Bone Loss Among HIV- Infected Patients Receiving Tenofovir Disoproxil Fumarate, Lamivudine or Emtricitabine and Efavirenz: An Open-label, Randomized Controlled Trial

The purpose of this study is to determine whether calcium and vitamin D supplement can attenuate bone loss in HIV-infected-patients in Thailand who receive Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate.

Read the detailed description

Early initiation of antiretroviral therapy (ART) has transformed HIV infection into chronic manageable disease. Although incidence of AIDS-related mortality has decreased, it has increased for other co-morbid conditions including decrease bone mass, osteoporosis, fragility fracture. There are multi-factorial that contribute to bone loss in HIV-infected individuals including HIV virus itself that shift bone remodeling pathway toward bone resorption, lifestyle and behavioral factors, co-morbid conditions and ART.

Initiation of ART is associated with 2%-6% reduction in bone mineral density during the first 2 years of treatment regardless of ART regimens and then stabilization thereafter in the majority of the study. This magnitude of bone loss is similar to postmenopausal women during the first year.

Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) is a nucleotide analogue reverse transcriptase inhibitor, has been associated with greater bone loss than other reverse transcriptase inhibitors, that is recommended as the first line treatment in Thailand. Nonetheless there is an evidence in western country that calcium and vitamin D supplement can attenuate bone loss in naive HIV-infected individual who start ART with TDF. Even though many experts recommend to avoid TDF and prefer abacavir, NRTIs which affect bone loss less than other NRTIs, in high fracture risk patients, more than less HIV-infected-patients can access to abacavir in resource limiting country. This research aims to study bone mineral density (BMD) in HIV infected-patient in Thai population who receive tenofovir with calcium and vitamin D supplement.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing TDF/3TC or FTC/EFV plus Calcium and vitamin D supplement and TDF/3TC or FTC/EFV in people with Bone Density, run by Mahidol University at 1 site in Thailand.

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 2 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 Jul 2016. 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 Thailand. 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?

Contact Patawee Boontanondha, M.D. (669-1774-6012, pataweeb44@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

percentage change of bone density (time frame: 24 weeks). 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 11 Jul 2016.
