Trial Outcomes & Findings for BK Virus in Salivary Gland Disease: Treating the Potential Etiologic Agent (NCT NCT02068846)

NCT ID: NCT02068846

Last Updated: 2019-07-11

Results Overview

Oral fluids will be assessed for evidence of BK Virus replication to determine whether Cipro administration inhibits BK Virus replication in participants with HIVSGD. Oral fluids will be assessed by real-time PCR to determine BK Virus status as positive or negative.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Week 4

Population: Two participants withdrew prior to Week 4

Oral fluids will be assessed for evidence of BK Virus replication to determine whether Cipro administration inhibits BK Virus replication in participants with HIVSGD. Oral fluids will be assessed by real-time PCR to determine BK Virus status as positive or negative.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Week 4

Population: Two participants withdrew prior to Week 4 and one participant did not perform salivary flow collection.

To determine whether salivary gland function is improved or restored with the administration of Cipro in participants with HIVSGD. After sitting at rest for 1 minute, participants collect drool using 50-mL conical tubes. The 5-minute unstimulated whole saliva flow rate recorded and collected. Salivary hypofunction is defined as unstimulated whole saliva flow rate ≤ 0.1 mL/min. Normal salivary function is defined as \> 0.1 mL/min.
