What is being measured

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

  1. Incidence Rate of Malignancies

    Incidence rate of malignancies was calculated as the number of events divided by person-time. Only the first diagnosis of each event per participant was included. Person-time was calculated as the sum of all time contributed by each individual from the date of HIV care initiation at that institution or January 1, 2000 if in care prior to this date. Malignancies included acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS)-defining malignancies and non-AIDS defining malignancies. AIDS-defining malignancies included invasive cervical cancer, non-Hodgkin's lymphoma and kaposis sarcoma; non-AIDS defining malignancies included but not limited to Hodgkin's disease, lung cancer, liver cancer, anal cancer, melanoma of the skin, leukemia, renal cancer, and prostate cancer. Overall data for non-AIDS defining malignancies and individual data for AIDS-defining malignancies was reported. Incidence rate was computed as the number of events per 100 person-years.

    Measured: Up to Week 626

  2. Incidence Rate of Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS)-Defining Opportunistic Infections

    Incidence rate of AIDS-defining opportunistic infections was calculated as the number of events divided by person-time. Only the first diagnosis of each event per participant was included. Person-time was calculated as the sum of all time contributed by each individual from the date of HIV care initiation at that institution or January 1, 2000 if in care prior to this date. Opportunistic infections were those that occurred on immune-compromised participants. AIDS-defining infections included: esophageal candidiasis; pneumocystes jiroveci; non-tuberculous mycobacterium infection; AIDS dementia complex; disseminated cryptococcosis; cytomegalovirus (all sites); wasting syndrome; toxoplasmosis; cytomegalovirus retinitis; mycobacterium tuberculosis; Progressive (Prog.) multifocal leukoencephalopathy; histoplasmosis; cryptosporidiosis; recurrent pneumonia; herpes simplex infection; extra-pulmonary coccidioidomycosis; salmonella septicemia; isosporiasis.

    Measured: Up to Week 626

  3. Incidence Rate of Myocardial Infarction

    Incidence rate of myocardial infarction (MI) was calculated as the number of events divided by person-time. Only first diagnosis of the event per participant was included. Person-time was calculated as the sum of all time contributed by each individual from the date of HIV care initiation at that institution or January 1, 2000 if in care prior to this date.

    Measured: Up to Week 626

  4. Incidence Rate of Liver Failure

    Incidence rate of liver failure was calculated as the number of events divided by person-time. Only first diagnosis of the event per participant was included. Person-time was calculated as the sum of all time contributed by each individual from the date of HIV care initiation at that institution or January 1, 2000 if in care prior to this date.

    Measured: Up to Week 626

  5. Incidence Rate of Viral Encephalitis

    Incidence rate of viral encephalitis was calculated as the number of events divided by person-time. Only first diagnosis of the event per participant was included. Person-time was calculated as the sum of all time contributed by each individual from the date of HIV care initiation at that institution or January 1, 2000 if in care prior to this date. Viral encephalitis was defined as inflammation of the brain due to virus.

    Measured: Up to Week 626

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Incidence Rate of Rhabdomyolysis

    Incidence rate of rhabdomyolysis was calculated as the number of events divided by person-time. Only first diagnosis of the event per participant was included. Person-time was calculated as the sum of all time contributed by each individual from the date of HIV care initiation at that institution or January 1, 2000 if in care prior to this date. Rhabdomyolysis was a condition of muscle fibers breakdown.

    Measured: Up to Week 626

  2. Incidence Rate of Death

    Incidence rate of death was calculated as the number of events divided by person-time. Person-time was calculated as the sum of all time contributed by each individual from the date of HIV care initiation at that institution or January 1, 2000 if in care prior to this date. All-cause mortality was used for the analyses.

    Measured: Up to Week 626

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of HIV and AIDS, run by ViiV Healthcare.

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 1 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 21 Apr 2014. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 21 Apr 2014). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Incidence Rate of Malignancies (time frame: Up to Week 626). The study lists 5 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 21 Apr 2014.
