Trial summary

With effective anti-retroviral therapy, non-communicable diseases, such as cardiovascular diseases, have become the major cause of morbidity and mortality for people living with HIV. There is only limited data evaluating the burden and risk factors of cardiovascular disease in the Asian HIV-infected population. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Automatic Retinal Image Analysis (ARIA) to Predict Coronary Artery Disease in HIV-infected Individuals

With effective anti-retroviral therapy, non-communicable diseases, such as cardiovascular diseases, have become the major cause of morbidity and mortality for people living with HIV. There is only limited data evaluating the burden and risk factors of cardiovascular disease in the Asian HIV-infected population. Accurate non-invasive tools for prediction of cardiovascular disease, particularly in Asian HIV-infected populations, are urgently needed. Recently, more detailed evaluation of the complex retinal vasculature has been made feasible with advances in digitalized retinal imaging techniques.

This study aims 1. to determine the prevalence of coronary atherosclerosis and obstructive coronary artery disease HIV-infected individuals with one or more cardiovascular disease risk factors in Asia. 2. to determine the performance of automatic retinal image analysis (ARIA) in predicting the risk of coronary artery disease in HIV-infected individuals, as compared to traditional risk prediction tools. Patients will undergo a coronary CT angiogram, followed by an automatic retinal image analysis within 4 weeks post completion of CT angiogram.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Hiv and Coronary Artery Disease, run by Chinese University of Hong Kong at 1 site in Hong Kong.

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 3 inclusion and 4 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 1 Sep 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 Hong Kong. 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?

Coronary atherosclerosis defined as the presence of any plaque in one or more coronary artery segments (time frame: 1 year). 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 1 Sep 2023.
