Rosiglitazone Effect on Mitochondria and Lipoatrophy
- Registration Number
- NCT00367744
- Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of rosiglitazone on limb fat and mitochondrial indices in HIV-1-infected subjects receiving stable antiretroviral therapy that does not contain stavudine (d4T) or zidovudine (AZT).
- Detailed Description
This is a phase II, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of rosiglitazone for the treatment of HIV-associated lipoatrophy. Subjects will receive blinded study treatment for 48 weeks. This study will examine the effect of rosiglitazone on limb fat and mitochondrial indices in HIV-1-infected subjects receiving stable antiretroviral therapy that does not contain d4T or AZT. The study also will assess the safety and tolerability of rosiglitazone in this population, and its effect on carotid IMT, prevalence of metabolic syndrome, lipid parameters and glucose metabolism.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Change in Limb Fat at 48 Weeks 48 weeks Limb fat was measured at baseline and visit week 48 using dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DEXA), and change from baseline to week 48 (week 48 - baseline) was estimated for the treatment groups.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method the Change in the Carotid IMT of the Common Carotid Artery 48 weeks Carotid IMT of the Common carotid artery (CCA) was measured at baseline and week 48, and change from baseline to week 48 (week 48 - baseline) was estimated for the treatment groups.
