Liraglutide for HIV-associated Neurocognitive Disorder

July 27, 2022 updated by: Temple University

Effects of Liraglutide on Cognition, Chronic Inflammation and Glycemic Control in Overweight and Obese, HIV-infected Subjects With Type 2 Diabetes.

This study will test the effect of liraglutide on cognitive function in HIV-infected overweight or obese subjects with type 2 diabetes.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Terminated

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

HIV, insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) are independently associated with cognitive impairment. Considering the synergistic effects of HIV and DM on cognition, these subjects are at increased risk of cognitive impairment. glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) receptors have wide tissue distribution including the central nervous system. The study hypothesis is that GLP-1 could potentially ameliorate the impairments in cognition in this population. This study will assess the impact of liraglutide on neurocognitive performance and peripheral inflammatory markers. It will also evaluate the effects of liraglutide on glycemic control and metabolic risk factors in HIV infected subjects with type 2 diabetes.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

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
