Key inclusion & exclusion criteria
|
Inclusion Criteria:
- predominantly lipoatrophic or mixed phenotype of HIV-lipodystrophy (based on
self-observation and evaluation by a study physician utilizing a visual scale;
- AM fasting leptin < 4.0 ng/ml
- hypertriglyceridemia (fasting serum TG 250-1000 mg /dl).
- normal biochemistry (except altered lipid and glucose profile). Patients with the
American Diabetes Association diagnostic criteria for diabetes were included provided
the HbA1c level was <7.5% and they received no anti-diabetic medications for at least
3 months.
- well-controlled HIV infection status evidenced by viral RNA titers <400 copies/ml, on
stable HAART.
Exclusion Criteria:
- acute or chronic illnesses.
- use of antidiabetic medications in the previous 3 months, or of lipid-lowering drugs
in the previous 6 weeks are also exclusion criteria. Other drugs excluded are growth
hormone (if used without evidence of growth hormone deficiency), Megace and
testosterone (if used without evidence of hypogonadism).
