Official title
A Randomized, Placebo-Controlled Trial of Pentoxifylline to Improve Endothelial Function in HIV-Infected Patients Not Requiring Antiretroviral Therapy
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
People infected with HIV have a greater risk of developing cardiovascular disease than people not infected with HIV. This may be due to increased inflammation brought on by either the HIV infection itself or the use of antiretroviral medications to treat HIV infection. This study will evaluate an anti-inflammatory drug, pentoxifylline, to determine whether it improves blood vessel function and reduces inflammation in people infected with HIV who are not currently receiving antiretroviral medications.
