Trial summary

Chronic kidney disease (CKD), frequent in PLHIV, is a risk factor for cognitive impairment. Micro-albuminuria is an early manifestation of CKD and a marker of vascular risk, notably affecting the small vessels. Read more about this study

About this study

Chronic kidney disease (CKD), frequent in PLHIV, is a risk factor for cognitive impairment. Micro-albuminuria is an early manifestation of CKD and a marker of vascular risk, notably affecting the small vessels. In the older general population microalbuminuria is associated with greater annual cognitive decline and has been proposed as an easily and inexpensive measured marker predicting future cognitive function decline. Ageing of the PLH leads to an increase of cognitive disorders and chronic renal failure incidence and could imply a common underlying mechanism affecting the renal and cerebral microvasculature. In this setting the investigators undertake this prospective, cross-sectional, case-control study to determine whether the presence of a microalbuminuria at least 5 years ago in PLHs with sustained good combination antiretroviral therapy (cART)-controlled immunovirological parameters could be a marker predicting future cognitive impairment. They chose PLHs infected for at least 5 years and with cART-sustained immunovirological control for at least 1 year.

PLHIV with microalbuminuriaPatient infected with HIV and well controlled by treatments, with microalbuminuria for at least 5 years

What is being measured

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

  1. Z-Score of five neurocognitive domains tested and global deficit score

    Comparisons of composite cognitive scores (z-score) and scores of global cognitive deficits (GDS) between the two populations. The neuropsychological tests are made during a single consultation of a half day.

    Measured: 4 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of HIV, run by Fondation Ophtalmologique Adolphe de Rothschild 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 7 inclusion and 13 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 28 Jul 2017. 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?

Z-Score of five neurocognitive domains tested and global deficit score (time frame: 4 hours). 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 28 Jul 2017.
