Brief Summary

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

The main purpose of this study is to evaluate a therapy for the inflammaging (premature aging).

Detailed Description

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

It's been demonstrated that the HIV-1 virus is associated to the reduction of the microbiota. Some studies suggest that because of this bacterial reduction, the premature aging appears. So this study aims to demonstrate that our probiotic can balance the microbiota as a preventive solution for the inflammaging.

Allocation Method

RANDOMIZED

Intervention Model

PARALLEL

100 patients will be included in this trial. Patients will be randomized 2: 2: 1 to one of the following 3 branches according to the use of integrase inhibitors (INI), protease inhibitors (PI) or non-nucleoside analogue reverse transcriptase inhibitors ( ITINAN) and according to the CD4 count nadir is greater or less or equal to 200 cells / mm3: Branch A: add probiotic i3.1 to the antiretroviral therapy Branch B: add probiotic i3.1 and ProSeed prebiotic to the antiretroviral therapy Branch C: add placebo to ART The treatment periods will be of 6 months and follow-up will be carried out at month, at 3 months and at 6 after the start of the study treatment, and a last visit will be made at 3 months after discontinuing it (wash-out period).

Study Groups

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

i3.1

This group will have their habitual antiretroviral therapy (integrase inhibitor (INI), protease inhibitor (IP), reverse transcriptase inhibitor (ITINAN)) combined with the research product (probiotic i3.1). The prebiotic will be taken once a day during 6 months.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Probiotic

Intervention Type DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT

The probiotic i3.1 is a commercialized product. It will be supplied by the promoter and manufactured in ALIFARM S.A.

It contains:

* Lactobacillus plantarum CECT7484
* Lactobacillus plantarum CECT7485
* Pediococcus acidilactici CECT7483

i3.1 + ProSeed

This group will have their habitual antiretroviral therapy combined with the probiotic (i3.1) and the prebiotic (ProSheed). The prebiotic and probiotic will be taken once a day during 6 months.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Probiotic

Intervention Type DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT

The probiotic i3.1 is a commercialized product. It will be supplied by the promoter and manufactured in ALIFARM S.A.

It contains:

* Lactobacillus plantarum CECT7484
* Lactobacillus plantarum CECT7485
* Pediococcus acidilactici CECT7483

Prebiotic

Intervention Type DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT

ProSeed prebiotic is a non-commercialized product. It will be supplied by the promoter and manufactured in ALIFARM S.A.

It contains:

* Partially Hydrolyzed Guar Gum (PHGG)
* Inulin HPD
* Oat Beta-Glucans
* Pectin
* Inulin Low Protein Diet (LPD)
* Polydextrose
* Maltrodextrins

Placebo

This group will only have their habitual antiretroviral therapy. The placebo will be taken once a day during 6 months.

Group Type PLACEBO_COMPARATOR

Placebo

Intervention Type DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT

It is a non-commercialized product. It is composed of the same excipients as the probiotic and the prebiotic. It will be supplied by the promoter and manufactured in ALIFARM S.A.
