Effect of Vitamin D Supplementation on Bone Turnover Markers During PrEP in MSM

CCTG 595 is an open-label clinical trial of the effect of a text messaging intervention vs. standard of care on adherence to Truvada as PrEP in MSM at increased risk for HIV infection (ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT01761643). Eligible subjects for this matched case control substudy will receive vitamin D 4000 IU/day for 24 weeks, from week 24 through week 48. In CCTG 595, plasma from participants are being collected and stored at entry and every 12 weeks. These plasma samples will be used to measure P1NP, CTX, PTH, and vitamin D levels in both cases and controls at entry, week 24, and week 48.

About this study

A total of 50 HIV-uninfected men who have sex with men (MSM) and male to female (M to F) transgender individuals already enrolled in CCTG 595 will be offered participation in the sub-study at Week 24 of the main study. All subjects enrolled into the sub-study will be provided Vitamin D 4000 IU/day supplements in addition to their PrEP at Weeks 24 and 36; clinic visits will proceed normally per main study protocol. Upon completion of the sub-study subjects will continue on the main study.

The primary endpoint, bone turnover markers, will be measured from Week 24 to Week 48 via plasma samples collected through the main study. Concurrent controls who are not enrolled in the vitamin D substudy who are reporting supplementation with < 400 IU of vitamin D/day will be matched 1:1 by randomization arm in the CCTG 595 main study (text messaging arm vs. standard of care), age (± 5 years), race/ethnicity, season of study entry, and BMI (± 3 kg/m2).

Treatment and study plan

Vitamin D supplement

Drug

Subjects enrolled into this sub-study will be provided Vitamin D 4000IU/day for 24 Weeks.

Primary outcomes

  1. Change in Total Procollagen Type 1 N-terminal Propeptide (a Marker of Bone Formation) [P1NP] Levels

    Time frame: Weeks 24-48

    To compare the change in P1NP levels from Week 24 through Week 48 among subjects (cases) who receive vitamin D 4000 IU/day to the change in levels seen in matched unsupplemented controls

Secondary outcomes

  1. Change in CTX-1 Levels

    Time frame: Weeks 24-48

    To compare the change in CTX-1 levels from Week 24 through Week 48 among subjects (cases) who receive vitamin D 4000 IU/day to the change in levels seen in matched unsupplemented controls

  2. Change in PTH Levels

    Time frame: Weeks 24-48

    To compare the change in PTH levels from Week 24 through Week 48 among subjects (cases) who receive vitamin D 4000 IU/day to the change in levels seen in matched unsupplemented controls

  3. Change in 25-OH Vitamin D3 Levels

    Time frame: Weeks 24-48

    To compare the change in 25-OH vitamin D3 levels from Week 24 through Week 48 among subjects (cases) who receive vitamin D 4000 IU/day to the change in levels seen in matched unsupplemented controls
