About this study

Official title: Genome-based Multiomics Analysis on Gut Microbiome in People Living With HIV and HBV

Building a Microbiome Data Platform and Conducting Clinical Evidence Research in Individuals Infected with the Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) and Hepatitis B virus.

Read the detailed description

Chronic HIV infection, which often results in metabolic disorders, leads to shifts in the gut microbiota, contributing to immune activation and chronic inflammation. This study seeks to compare the gut microbiota in individuals with chronic HIV infection and chronic hepatitis B patients. The objective is to identify specific gut bacterial strains and metabolic pathways linked to the metabolic disorders commonly observed in HIV patients.

Medical subject headings
Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome, Hepatitis B, Chronic

What is being measured

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

  1. Collect clinical information data and stool from HIV and HBV patients

    Clinical information data will be collected from both HIV and HBV infected patients. Biosamples collected from these individuals will be used to establish a multi-omics analysis platform, including the examination of the intestinal microbiome. With this platform, comparative clinical studies will be conducted to uncover the disease's pathophysiology and identify potential biomarkers related to metabolic diseases.

    Measured: 2 years

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Shotgun metagenomic sequencing will be done with stool collected from HIV and HBV patients

    Diversity analysis: Alpha and beta diversity analyses are conducted to determine differences in the composition of gut microbiota between healthy individuals and patients.

    Important feature selection: Differential abundance analysis (e.g., using methods like LEfSe or ANCOM) or machine learning (e.g., random forest, support vector machine) is employed to identify microbiota.

    Functional profile prediction: In cases where metagenomic analysis is not feasible, the PICRUSt2 program is utilized to predict and analyze functional profiles based on the phylogeny of the microbiota present in healthy individuals and patients.

    Measured: 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Human Immunodeficiency Virus and Chronic Hepatitis b, run by Kangbuk Samsung Hospital.

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 7 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 Nov 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Bomi Kim, M.D. (82-10-8797-7558, springi02@naver.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Collect clinical information data and stool from HIV and HBV patients (time frame: 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 14 Nov 2023.
