Study Type

Study Type

Describes the nature of a clinical study. Study types include interventional studies (also called clinical trials), observational studies (including patient registries), and expanded access.
Observational

Enrollment (Actual)

Enrollment

The number of participants in a clinical study. The "anticipated" enrollment is the target number of participants that the researchers need for the study.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

  • Child
  • Adult
  • Older Adult

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Incidence Rate of Malignancies
Time Frame: Up to Week 626
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.
Up to Week 626
Incidence Rate of Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS)-Defining Opportunistic Infections
Time Frame: Up to Week 626
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.
Up to Week 626
Incidence Rate of Myocardial Infarction
Time Frame: Up to Week 626
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.
Up to Week 626
Incidence Rate of Liver Failure
Time Frame: Up to Week 626
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.
Up to Week 626
Incidence Rate of Viral Encephalitis
Time Frame: Up to Week 626
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.
Up to Week 626

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Incidence Rate of Rhabdomyolysis
Time Frame: Up to Week 626
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.
Up to Week 626
Incidence Rate of Death
Time Frame: Up to Week 626
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.
Up to Week 626

Study Major Dates

Study Start

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.
March 1, 2009

Primary Completion (Actual)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.

Study Completion (Actual)

Study Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention/treatment to collect final data for the primary outcome measures, secondary outcome measures, and adverse events (that is, the last participant's last visit). The "anticipated" study completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the study completion date.
