About this study

RATIONALE: HIV pathology has been associated with accelerated aging of the infected organism, with no known knowledge of virus, immunosuppression, immune response stimulation, antiretroviral toxicity, and "classic" risks. The data are in good standing from a multicenter cohort with high statistical power but very heterogeneous and not exhaustive. A complementary approach by small, comprehensive cohorts is desirable.

POPULATION CONCERNED: HIV-positive persons OBJECTIVE To describe the aging of the physiological functions of people living with HIV.

Duration of the study: 1 year

Rational:

HIV pathology has been associated with an accelerated aging of the infected organism, without anyone knowing how to do it:

  • the direct toxicity of the virus;
  • CD4 immuno-depletion and its corollary of opportunistic infections, modification of microbiota, ... ;
  • Reactive immune stimulation with chronic inflammation;
  • the toxicity of antiretrovirals, particularly nucleoside analogues, responsible for acquired mitochondrial cytopathy;
  • And, finally, specific environmental factors related to either the mode of acquisition of the infection (transfusion, drug addiction ...), or the frailty induced by the pathology (psychic or social).

The discordant data of the great cohorts must be supported by cohorts of smaller sizes, more exhaustive, both in item and data, more homogeneous in their social determinants.

Population and Methods:

This retrospective monocentric epidemiological study has several objectives:

  • Description of the aging of the population followed on several organs
  • Comparison with the data of the closest general population geographically, sociologically and temporally;
  • Comparison of the relative age of the different organs with each other: synchronous aging or not?
  • Evaluation of a screening / surveillance strategy adapted to local epidemiology
  1. Collect aging data from the functions: Kidney: creatinine, calculated clearance of creatinine, microalbuminuria Liver: cytolysis, cholestasis, Fibroscan * pulmonary: pulmonary function tests Heart: ultrasound, ECG Brain: memory disorder screening test Psychism: depression test Musculoskeletal: Bone Densitometry, Calcium, Phosphoremia, Vitamin D Vascular: carotid intima-media thickness
  2. Evaluate the potential determinants: Demographic: gender, age, phototype Viral: subtypes, time to infection, undetectable delay, viral load zenith Immune: lymphocyte immunophenotyping, nadir CD4 Iatrogen: antiretrovirals (year / patient exposure, compliance), other treatment Toxic: self-administered questionnaire (alcohol, tobacco and others), expired Hb CO, gammaGT, urinary toxicity test
  3. Correlate aging data of each organ with determinants, correlate between organs with and without adjustment to determinants
  4. Look for the closest population data in the literature and compared with those of the VIHVA cohort.

Ethical considerations:

The data of VIHVA study, approved by the local ethics committee (CCPPRB), was collected upon obtaining the non-opposition of patients.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Aging, Premature and HIV Infections, run by University Hospital, Brest 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 1 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 15 Aug 2024. 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?

renal aging (time frame: yearly). The study lists 7 primary outcomes in all. 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 15 Aug 2024.
