Italian Registry of HIV-1 Infected Patients With Drug-RESistant Virus to Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitors, InteGrasE and Viral Protease.

Italy300 participantsStarted 2017-12-14

Plain-language summary

The PRESTIGIO Registry is an Observational, prospective, multicentre study that includes patients, regularly followed by Italian Infectious Disease Centres, with HIV-1 infection and documented resistance to the 4 classes of antiretroviral drugs: nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTI), non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTI), protease inhibitors (PI), and integrase inhibitors (INSTI). Main objective of this register is to evaluate in the study population: * the long-term effectiveness of different antiretroviral regimes; * evolution of the genotype and phenotypic susceptibility of antiretroviral drugs used in patients with virological failure; * mortality; * incidence of opportunistic AIDS-related infections and chronic conditions (comorbidity); * determinants of clinical outcomes including virological/immunological/inflammatory markers. * antiretroviral therapy (ART) compliance and health assessments; * drug-economy indications related to the clinical management of this complex sub-population.

AI-rewrites the medical criteria so a patient or caregiver can understand them. Always confirm with the trial site.

Inclusion Criteria: * subjects with HIV-1 infection; * age \>14 years; * documented resistance to the 4 classes of antiretroviral drugs (NRTI, NNRTI, PI, INI), defined as resistance (at least intermediate) to at least one of the drugs in each class according to the Stanford algorithm. Resistance can be documented either at the time of inclusion in the study or previously documented throughout the patient's therapeutic history. Exclusion Criteria: * none

Questions worth asking your doctor

Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.

1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?

Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.

Questions for the trial coordinator

The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.

1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?

A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.

What they're measuring

Collection of date to evaluate: - Long-term effectiveness of different ART; -comorbidity and mortality; - ART compliance and health assessments; - drug-economy indications related to the clinical management.
