Protocol summary

Study aim
Efficacy and safety of empagliflozin compared to standard treatment in heart failure with low output in people with HIV/AIDS: a randomized clinical trial study
Design
The study group is HIV-positive people who refer to behavioral clinics and clinics of Tehran and Iran University and Shahid Beheshti hospitals. The clinical trial includes the control group. Phase 3. 136 people are divided into two arms in the form of block randomization, with 68 people in each arm.
Settings and conduct
This study is conducted in HIV positive patients with heart failure with low output in order to investigate the effect of empagliflozin in the treatment of these patients. If they have evidence of EF loss, they will enter the study and perform tests, ECG and 6-min test. For blinding in this method, a number of boxes that are numbered in a random sequence are used. In these boxes, intervention (medicine) and sheets in which random allocation is recorded are used. In this method, sufficient sealing and waxing of the boxes is ensured, and the boxes have the same weight and shape.
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: • Age over 18 yearsm,HIV positive,Heart failure with ejection fraction less than50%. Exit criteria: Having malignancy or opportunistic infection, Pregnancy, Renal failure and GFR<20, Occurrence of drug side effects
Intervention groups
In this study, HIV positive patients with cardiac output below 50% are selected and the control group is given the standard treatment of heart failure and the intervention group is given the same standard treatment and empagloflozin is added to evaluate its effects in HIV positive patients
