To show the non-inferiority of EGRIFTA® vs. placebo in the development or progression of Diabetic Retinopathy in HIV-infected subjects with concomitant abdominal lipohypertrophy and Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).

To date, EGRIFTA® has not been studied for longer than 1 year in human subjects, nor has EGRIFTA® been studied in Type 2 diabetic HIV-infected subjects who are receiving oral hypoglycemic agents, GLP-1 analogues, or insulin. The present study will assess the potential of EGRIFTA® to induce or exacerbate DR in HIV-infected subjects on antiretroviral therapy who have concomitant abdominal lipohypertrophy and T2DM, and explore the long-term effects of EGRIFTA® on glycemic control and major adverse cardiovascular event (MACE) in this population.
