Trial Outcomes & Findings for Real-life Effectiveness of the Kaletra Adherence Support Assistance (KASA) Program (NCT NCT01662336)
NCT ID: NCT01662336
Last Updated: 2018-01-29
Results Overview
Adherence was assessed by the Adherence Self-Efficacy Scale (ASES). The ASES is a 12 item tool that measures the patient's confidence to undertake treatment related activities and behaviors including medication regimen, diet and exercise. Each question is answered on a scale from 0 (cannot do at all) to 10 (certain can do). A summative score ranging from 0 to 120 was calculated, with higher scores indicating higher treatment self-efficacy. A participant was considered to have maintained adherence if the change in the ASES summative score at month 6 relative to Baseline was greater than or equal to zero. Participants who discontinued from the study or were lost to follow-up were considered non-adherent.

PRIMARY outcome
Timeframe: Baseline and 6 monthsPopulation: The intent-to treat population included all enrolled participants who received at least 1 dose of lopinavir/ritonavir; participants with missing information on the absolute change in the ASES summative score who were not discontinued from the study or lost to follow-up were excluded.
Adherence was assessed by the Adherence Self-Efficacy Scale (ASES). The ASES is a 12 item tool that measures the patient's confidence to undertake treatment related activities and behaviors including medication regimen, diet and exercise. Each question is answered on a scale from 0 (cannot do at all) to 10 (certain can do). A summative score ranging from 0 to 120 was calculated, with higher scores indicating higher treatment self-efficacy. A participant was considered to have maintained adherence if the change in the ASES summative score at month 6 relative to Baseline was greater than or equal to zero. Participants who discontinued from the study or were lost to follow-up were considered non-adherent.

The ASES is a 12-item tool that measures the patient's confidence to undertake treatment-related activities and behaviors including medication regimen, diet and exercise. Each question was answered on a scale from 0 (cannot do at all) to 10 (certain can do). The 12 items converge to two subscales measuring adherence integration and adherence perseverance. The adherence integration subscale score ranges from 0 to 90, with higher scores indicating higher treatment self-efficacy.

Participant quality of life (QoL) was measured by the QoL 601-2 survey, the Health Status Assessment (HSA). This survey is a brief, comprehensive measure of health-related QoL used extensively in patients with human immunodeficiency virus / acquired immune deficiency syndrome (HIV/AIDS). The instrument includes 21 items assessing 8 domains of health-related quality of life including physical functioning, role functioning, social functioning, cognitive functioning, pain, energy / fatigue, mental health, and general health perception. Each domain score ranges from 0 to 100 with higher scores indicating higher quality of life.
