NCT01330342

  Purpose

The study's chief objective is to observe the evolution of cellular (in terms of expression of transmembrane transporters and their transcriptional regulators) and viral resistance (in terms of development of mutations in the HIV genome that may confer resistance to future treatment for HIV) in HIV-infected patients with lymphoma.

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • Development of multi-drug resistance (in terms of expression of transmembrane transporters and their transcriptional regulators) in HIV-infected patients with lymphoma. [ Time Frame: 3 years ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • Development of mutations in the HIV genome that may confer resistance to future treatment for HIV. [ Time Frame: 3 years ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Estimated Enrollment: 40
Study Start Date: May 2011
Estimated Study Completion Date: May 2014
Estimated Primary Completion Date: May 2014 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)
Groups/Cohorts
HIV patients without lymphoma
HIV-infected subjects on cART without a diagnosis of lymphoma
HIV patients with lymphoma
HIV seropositive individuals with lymphoma

Detailed Description:

The study team will take two or three tubes of blood on three occasions during the course of chemotherapy. The total amount of blood required for this research project is 64mL (approximately 4 tablespoons).

This will allow better understanding of the changes that take place in the blood and the HIV virus itself. It is hoped that this will provide new insights that may aid the understanding and treatment of HIV patients with lymphoma.

  Eligibility

Genders Eligible for Study:   Both
Accepts Healthy Volunteers:   No
Sampling Method:   Probability Sample
Study Population

HIV seropositive individuals with and without lymphoma.

Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

  • The ability to understand and sign a written informed consent form, prior to participation in any screening procedure and must be willing to comply with all study requirements.
  • Documented HIV-1 infection.
  • Diagnosis of lymphoma (with the exclusion of the five subjects that will be controls).
  • On cART or about to start cART as part of clinical routine care before the initiation of chemotherapy.

Exclusion Criteria:

- Receiving anti-tuberculosis treatment.
