Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.

Summary

This study tests a culturally tailored program to prevent chronic diseases like diabetes, high blood pressure, and obesity in Latino men over 50 living with HIV. Participants meet with a community health worker, join group walking sessions three times a week, and discuss pleasant activities. The goal is to see if this approach is feasible and acceptable, and whether it can lower cardiometabolic risk.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
A culturally tailored health promotion program combining one-on-one sessions with a community health worker, group walking sessions, and pleasant event discussions.
What this could lead to
If successful, this program could offer a practical, culturally tailored way to reduce heart disease, diabetes, and obesity risk in older Latino men living with HIV.
What could go wrong
This is a small feasibility study, so it may not show clear health benefits. The program's success depends on participants staying engaged, and results may not apply to broader populations.
