The purpose of the study is to assess the efficacy of a case manager/social worker administered, telephone-based educational curriculum in improving cardiovascular disease related outcomes among HIV-infected clinic patients.

Study Overview

Status

Status

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

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

Fifty high Cardiovascular Disease Risk (CVD) risk clinic patients will be randomized 1:1 to receive either a series of educational pamphlets on CVD risk reduction plus a telephone-based CVD risk reduction curriculum delivered over 24 weeks [intervention arm], or the educational pamphlets alone [control arm]. Anthropomorphic data, blood pressure and lipid profiles will be obtained from patients to assess the efficacy of the intervention in reducing blood pressure and serum low-density lipoprotein levels (LDL).

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

40 years to 75 years (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

  • In care at the Duke Infectious Diseases Clinic for HIV and for at least 24 months
  • On antiretroviral therapy
  • 2013 American Heart Association 10-year ASCVD risk score ≥ 15%, with a diagnosis of either hypertension or hyperlipidemia
  • English literate (able to speak and read at a 6th grade level)
  • Subjects must have the capacity to give legally effective consent.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm

Participant Group / Arm

A group or subgroup of participants in a clinical trial that receives a specific intervention/treatment, or no intervention, according to the trial's protocol.
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.
Experimental: Educational pamphlets + telephone
Behavioral: Telephone
A series of educational pamphlets on CVD risk reduction plus a telephone-based CVD risk reduction curriculum will be administered by Clinic-Based Case Managers (CCMs). Six modules will be given over 24 weeks in a rotating fashion on topics relevant to CVD risk. Subjects will be given the pamphlets every 2 weeks corresponding with the first time they receive the telephone - based module.
Other: Educational pamphlets
A series of 6 handouts will be given to controls once monthly over 6 months on the same topics presented in the telephone modules. Educational packets will be primarily drawn from free printed material available at www.learningaboutdiabetes.org and the American Heart Association website.
Active Comparator: Educational pamphlets
Other: Educational pamphlets
A series of 6 handouts will be given to controls once monthly over 6 months on the same topics presented in the telephone modules. Educational packets will be primarily drawn from free printed material available at www.learningaboutdiabetes.org and the American Heart Association website.

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
Change in Ambulatory Systolic Blood Pressure
Time Frame: Baseline, 24 weeks, 48 weeks, 72 weeks
Change of systolic blood pressure will be assessed as an absolute continuous variable, and as a proportion or persons who achieve >5mmHg reduction in systolic blood pressure from baseline. Reported here is the change from baseline to 72 weeks.
Baseline, 24 weeks, 48 weeks, 72 weeks
Number of Participants Who Achieve >5mmHg Reduction in Systolic Blood Pressure From Baseline
Time Frame: Baseline, 72 weeks
Baseline, 72 weeks
Change in Non-HDL (High Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol) Levels
Time Frame: Baseline, 24 weeks, 48 weeks, 72 weeks
Assessment of the absolute change in fasting calculated non-high density lipoprotein cholesterol over the study period. Reported here is the change from baseline to 72 weeks.
Baseline, 24 weeks, 48 weeks, 72 weeks

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
Total Change in Body Weight
Time Frame: Baseline, 24 weeks, 48 weeks, 72 weeks
Total change in body weight from baseline over the study period. Reported here is the change from baseline to 72 weeks.
Baseline, 24 weeks, 48 weeks, 72 weeks
Change in 10-year Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease (ASCVD) Risk Score
Time Frame: Baseline, 24 weeks, 48 weeks, 72 weeks
The global cardiovascular disease risk as calculated by the American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association's 10-year risk calculator. The ASCVD risk score is a calculation of the 10-year risk of having a cardiovascular problem, such as a heart attack or stroke. The ASCVD risk score is given as a percentage, which represents the chance of having heart disease or stroke in the next 10 years. 0 to 4.9 = low risk, 5 to 7.4 = borderline risk, 7.5 to 20 = intermediate risk, >20 = high risk. Reported here is the change from baseline to 72 weeks.
