About this study

To examine mechanisms of individual differences in the progression of HIV infection in hemophiliacs.

Read the detailed description

BACKGROUND:

In the late 1980s, hemophiliacs were transfused with a variety of blood products, including large amounts of cryoprecipitate. In comparison to other cohorts, hemophiliacs are CMV(-), resulting in a comparison group for the study of this virus as a potential cofactor. In contrast, non A, non-B hepatitis is common in comparison to other cohorts, and preliminary data prior to 1990 suggested that this chronic disease predisposes to more rapid progression of HIV infection.

DESIGN NARRATIVE:

Disease-free survival rates were determined in HIV-infected hemophiliacs. The effects of co-factors such as intensive transfusion, concomitant cytomegalovirus or chronic NANB hepatitis infection were ascertained. Host-virus interaction was assessed through the use of plasma cultures, specific antibody titers, and markers of immune changes detected by flow cytometry and immune function assays. The immunology of asymptomatic stable infection was investigated. The safety of volunteer donor blood products was determined in seronegative patients exposed to over 50,000 donors yearly and the risk of sexual transmission of HIV to spouses of seropositive patients was monitored.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome and HIV Infections, run by Bloodworks.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

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 14 Dec 2018. 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?

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.

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 Dec 2018.
