Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The objective of this study is to monitor Health Outcomes of Interest (HOI) in participants with human immunodeficiency virus-1 (HIV-1) infection following treatment with Raltegravir.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Study participants contributed data to one or more of 3 cohorts: 1) Historical Cohort: HIV-infected participants treated with antiretroviral therapy in the course of ordinary clinical practice at the clinics and medical centers of Kaiser Permanente (KP) between 1 January 2000 and 12 October 2007 (date of market authorization for raltegravir in USA), 2) Concurrent Cohort: HIV-infected participant treated with a new non-raltegravir antiretroviral therapy in the course of ordinary clinical practice at the clinics and medical centers of KP on or after 12 October 2007, and 3) Raltegravir Cohort: HIV-infected participant treated with raltegravir in the course of ordinary clinical practice at the clinics and medical centers of KP on or after 12 October 2007. Participants could contribute data to more than one cohort, but no overlap in follow-up time was allowed.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Concurrent and Raltegravir Cohorts Only

Participants with HIV-1 infection who 1) received therapy with a new non-RAL antiretroviral therapy on or after 12 October 2007 (Concurrent Cohort), and 2) received RAL after 12 October 2007 (Raltegravir Cohort). These participants contributed data to the Concurrent and Raltegravir Cohorts only.

No interventions assigned to this group

Raltegravir Cohort Only

Participants with HIV-1 infection who received raltegravir (RAL) on or after 12 October 2007 (the market authorization date in the United States) (Raltegravir Cohort). These participants contributed data to the Raltegravir Cohort only.

No interventions assigned to this group

Historical and Raltegravir Cohorts Only

Participants with HIV-1 infection who 1) received antiretroviral therapy (non-RAL) between 1 January 2005 and 11 October 2007 (Historical Cohort), and 2) received RAL on or after 12 October 2007 (Raltegravir Cohort). These participants contributed data to the Historical and Raltegravir Cohorts only.

Historical, Concurrent and Raltegravir Cohorts

Participants with HIV-1 infection who 1) received antiretroviral therapy (non-RAL) between 1 January 2005 and 11 October 2007 (Historical Cohort), 2) received therapy with a new non-RAL antiretroviral therapy on or after 12 October 2007 (Concurrent Cohort), and 3) received RAL after 12 October 2007 (Raltegravir Cohort). These participants contributed data to all three cohorts.
