About this study

Official title: WU 360: Assessing the Impact of Integrase Strand Transfer Inhibitors (INSTI) to Protease Inhibitor (PI) Switch on Insulin Sensitivity and Fat Metabolism (ADIPOSITY): a Sub-study of DEFINE

A substudy of TMC114FD2HTX4004 that will perform glucose tolerance testing, adipose testing and MRI scan at baseline, 12 and 24 weeks post switch of ART medications.

Read the detailed description

Synopsis Full study title: Assessing the impact of integrase strand transfer inhibitors (INSTI) to protease inhibitor (PI) switch on insulin sensitivity and fat metabolism (ADIPOSITY): a sub-study of DEFINE

Endpoints and objectives:

The following endpoints will be determined 12 and 24 weeks after switch from an INSTI-based antiretroviral therapy (ART) regimen to a PI-based regimen:

Primary endpoint: Change in insulin sensitivity (SI) at 12 weeks assessed by using a 3-hour frequently sampled oral glucose tolerance testing (fsOGTT).

Secondary endpoints: 1) Change in insulin sensitivity (SI) at 24 weeks assessed by using a 3-hour frequently sampled oral glucose tolerance testing (fsOGTT); 2) Change in insulin secretion during the fsOGTT assessed by using C-peptide deconvolution; 3) Change in intrahepatic triglyceride (IHTG) content measured by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI); 4) Change in adipocyte size by the osmium tetroxide fixation technique; and 5) Change in expression of genes associated with adipose tissue development, lipogenesis, inflammation and endocrine function by RNA sequencing.

Hypothesis: Insulin sensitivity will improve following switch from INSTIs to PIs

What is being measured

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

  1. Insulin Sensitivity measured by homeostatic model assessment for insulin resistance {HOMA_IR}

    Change in insulin sensitivity (SI) at 12 weeks assessed by using a 3-hour frequently sampled oral glucose tolerance testing (fsOGTT).to calculate HOMA_IR

    Measured: 12 weeks

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Intrahepatic triglyceride (IHTG) content measure by magnetic resonance

    Measured: 12 weeks

  2. Intrahepatic triglyceride (IHTG) content measure by magnetic resonance

    Change in intrahepatic triglyceride (IHTG) content measured by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI

    Measured: 24 weeks

  3. Adipocyte size measured by osmium tetroxide fixation technique

    Change in adipocyte size by the osmium tetroxide fixation technique

    Measured: 12 weeks

  4. Adipocyte size measured by osmium tetroxide fixation technique

    Change in adipocyte size by the osmium tetroxide fixation technique

    Measured: 24 weeks

  5. Adipocyte gene expression correlated with adipose tissue development

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Frequently sampled glucose tolerance testing, abdominal subcutaneous adipose tissue biopsy and MRI scan to assess intrahepatic triglyceride content in people with HIV I Infection and Adiposity, run by Washington University School of Medicine at 1 site in United States.

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 2 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 3 Aug 2023. 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 United States. 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?

Insulin Sensitivity measured by homeostatic model assessment for insulin resistance {HOMA_IR} (time frame: 12 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 3 Aug 2023.
