About this study

The principal objective is to define and compare the viral reservoir, mucosal immune responses and the microbiota of different HIV infection stages; viremic, aviremic (under treatment), natural elite controllers; The secondary objective is to compare the mucosal immune response and microbiota of HIV patients with the healthy control population of Milieu Interieur;

Read the detailed description

Although antiretroviral therapy (ART) efficiently suppresses viral replication HIV persists in CD4+ T cells in a form that is neither targeted by the immune system nor by ART, the complete eradication of replication competent HIV or the establishment of a long term remission state in infected individuals represents an outstanding challenge.

The persistence of reservoirs has been mainly linked to the survival and clonal expansion of pools of long lived infected memory CD4+ T cells and to low level viral replication in tissues where ART penetration may be incomplete. One such tissue may be mucosal surfaces which are challenging to study in human populations.

As part of the Milieu Interieur project, coordinated by Institut Pasteur, investigators have developed and validated a standardized approach for sampling the nasal mucosa. From this simple sampling procedure it is possible to analyze both the local mucosal host immune response at the proteomic and metabolomic level, and also the mucosal microbial flora.

As part of Milieu Interieur investigators have defined these diverse phenotypes for a subset of donors and are currently extending the analysis to the 1,000 healthy donors cohort that will give reference range values for the nasal mucosa.

Investigators wish to compare with relevant patient groups, in particular HIV infected individuals to see how infection, treatment, and natural host control may differentially impact the mucosal immune response and viral reservoir

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of HIV Infections, run by Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris 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 12 inclusion and 32 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 8 Sep 2022. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Cécile Goujard, Pr (+33145217932, cecile.goujard@aphp.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Measurement of HIV p24 levels in the supernatants of nasal mucosa (time frame: through study completion, an average of 2 years). 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 8 Sep 2022; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
