Durability of Adherence in Self-Management of HIV (DASH)

21 de fevereiro de 2018 atualizado por: AIDS Clinical Trials Group
Adherence to highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) is critical to successful treatment of HIV. This study tested an intervention that helps people infected with HIV take all their medications when and how they were supposed to.

Descrição detalhada

People infected with HIV must take the regimen of highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) medications as prescribed to them, without missing doses, or they risk developing a resistant strain of the virus. Resistant strains of the virus do not respond to certain HAART regimens and are more dangerous for patients. Poor HAART adherence can lead to further HIV progression, more hospitalizations and opportunistic infections, and required use of second-line therapies. Interventions to increase adherence have had mixed success, with little data to support long-term effects and no one strategy emerging that provides consistent positive effects. The client adherence profiling and intervention tailoring (CAP-IT) program was first developed to increase adherence among people already on HAART with in-home nursing. This study modified CAP-IT to treat people newly on HAART and then tested whether this modified CAP-IT improved long-term HAART adherence.

This study included two stages. The first stage consisted of two focus groups, one made up of HIV care providers and professionals and the other made up of people infected with HIV who had started HAART within the last year. Each focus group met once, for approximately 2 hours, to determine what modifications would best adapt the CAP-IT program to HIV-infected people first starting HAART.

The second stage consisted of a randomized trial comparing the modified CAP-IT program to standard of care. Participation in this stage lasted for 72 weeks. Participants were randomly assigned to receive either standard care or the modified CAP-IT program in addition to standard care. The CAP-IT program involved two steps. The first was an assessment of factors relating to adherence, and the second was development of an individualized plan to address the deficits found.

Study visits were completed at entry, at Weeks 4 and 12, and then every 12 weeks for approximately 72 weeks. Assessments for the study included a questionnaire about health attitudes, a physical exam, counting of pills, and answering questions about taking medications.

Medidas de resultados primários

Medida de resultado
Descrição da medida
Prazo
Mean Self-reported Adherence Score (%) Over a One-month Recall
Prazo: At weeks 4, 12, 24, 36, and 48

The adherence self-report questionnaire captured adherence at an Antiretroviral Therapy (ART) regimen over a one-month recall (0-100): 0 means none of anti-HIV medications were taken, 100 means every single dose of anti-HIV medications were taken. The primary endpoint evaluated for each participant was the average self-reported adherence over a one-month recall across each of their study visit week 4, 12, 24, 36, and 48: missing values were ignored.

Note: This was a change to the primary endpoint as described in the study protocol. This was due to an update to ACTG Case Report Form (CRF) that captured self-report adherence. Since the data captured on this form captured adherence over a longer timeframe and allowed for more variability in response, it was anticipated this endpoint would provide greater power to assess treatment differences.
At weeks 4, 12, 24, 36, and 48

Medidas de resultados secundários

Medida de resultado
Descrição da medida
Prazo
Mean Self-reported Adherence Score Over a One-month Recall
Prazo: Weeks 4, 12, 24, 36, 48, 60, and 72
The mean of participant's average self-reported adherence score over a one-month recall across visit week 4, 12, 24, 36, 48, 60, and 72; missing values were ignored.
Weeks 4, 12, 24, 36, 48, 60, and 72
Kaplan-Meier Estimate of the Cumulative Probability of Time to Change of Initial Antiretroviral (ARV) Treatment Regimen for Any Reason by Week 48
Prazo: From study entry to week 48

The Kaplan-Meier estimate of the cumulative probability of initial antiretroviral (ARV) treatment regimen for any reason by week 48.

Time to ARV treatment regimen change was defined as first time to change in the drug class of participant's ART regimen for any reason from study entry. Participants completing the study without a change in the drug class of their ART regimen were censored at their last visit.
From study entry to week 48
Virologic Suppression
Prazo: At week 24, 48, 72
Virologic suppression was defined as HIV-1 RNA <=200 copies/mL at week 24, 48, and 72. The results obtained within +/- 12 weeks of 24, 48, and 72 weeks were included. If there were multiple HIV-1 RNA measurement within the specified window, the HIV-1 RNA result closest to the center of the window was selected.
At week 24, 48, 72
Self-management Skills, as Measured by Self-reported General Self-efficacy Scale (GSES) Score
Prazo: At weeks 0 (entry), 4, 12, 24, 36, 48, 60, and 72

The GSES is a 10-item scale designed to assess optimistic self-beliefs used to cope with a variety of demands in life. The scale was designed to assess self efficacy, i.e., the belief that one's actions are responsible for successful outcomes. The scaled score for each question ranges from 1 to 4. Higher scores indicate participant's stronger belief in self-efficacy.

The GSES score was sum of all responses. The range was from 0 to 40 scores: any unfinished question got a score of zero.
At weeks 0 (entry), 4, 12, 24, 36, 48, 60, and 72
Cumulative Probability of First Grade 3 or 4 Adverse Events (AEs)
Prazo: From study entry to week 72

The Kaplan-Meier estimate of the cumulative probability of experiencing a grade 3 or 4 adverse event by week 72.

New Grade 3 or 4 signs, symptoms were identified by MedDRA preferred term. Events were included regardless of participant status on ART. If a participant had multiple reports of the same event, only the event reported at the highest grade were included.

Time was measured from the study entry until the date of the first new grade 3 or 4 adverse event. Participants lost to follow-up prior to reaching an adverse event endpoint or not documented to have reached an adverse event endpoint at the end of the study had their endpoint censored at the date of their last visit.
