Filter by:This is a pilot, proof of concept, open-label clinical trial, to assess the extend of persistent viral reservoir and the level of immune activation in patients receiving suppressive treatment with protease inhibitors. 40 Chronically HIV-1 infected subjects, receiving monotherapy with ritonavir-boosted lopinavir or darunavir for at least 12 months with plasma viremia below 50 copies HIV RNA per ml, and CD4 T-cell counts greater than 500 cells/mm3 will be included. The total duration of the study will be 48 weeks: 12 weeks for patients' inclusion, 24 weeks of follow-up once the last patient is included, and 12 weeks for data analysis.
This is a study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and antiretroviral activity of doravirine (MK-1439) as monotherapy in antiretroviral therapy (ART)-naïve, HIV-1-infected participants.
This study is being done to see whether rifaximin, an antibiotic that works in the intestines, can lower the amount of germs in the intestines of HIV infected persons. It is possible that when the amount of these germs is lowered, an HIV-infected person's immune system will become less active and will have a better chance of recovering. Also, the study will evaluate the safety of using rifaximin in HIV-infected subjects.
In this prospective cohort study the investigators will assess the prevalence and incidence of a broad range of age-related co-morbidities and their (known) risk factor among HIV-patients and HIV-negative controls. HIV might cause premature onset or accelerated aging and could therefore result in an increase of age-related comorbidities when compared with controls.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the incidence of acute renal graft rejection 6 months after transplantation in HIV-infected patients under three antiretroviral drugs regimen including Raltegravir.
The purpose of this study is to determine sustained immunogenicity of the quadrivalent vaccine 'Gardasil', 48 months after initial vaccination, among HIV-1 infected boys and girls age 9-14 years. This age range is within the World Health Organization (WHO) stipulated guidelines for national programs for the vaccine.
HIV progression is closely associated with chronic immune activation driven by leakage of bacterial products from a damaged gut, the investigators largest immunological organ. Notably, the degree of immune activation has been suggested to be a better predictor of disease progression than plasma viral load, and markers of immune activation and gut damage have been identified as therapeutic targets per se. The major damage by HIV to the immune system is an initial massacre of gut mucosal CD4+ Th17 cells. Interestingly, a normal gut flora has been shown to induce the maturation of Th17 cells in the small intestine mucosa. Preliminary reports have shown that the gut flora is altered in HIV-1 infection compared to controls. In this project, the investigators will characterize microbial composition of gut flora in chronic HIV infection with ultradeep sequencing. Gut flora composition will be related to clinical data as well as quantitative data of circulating microbial products and activation markers. Second, in a randomized clinical trial (RCT) the effect of probiotic lactobacilli on HIV pathogenesis and progression will be tested. This Gram-positive strain is clinically tested and is able to colonize the gut.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the virological and clinical efficacy of etravirine plus 2 active nucleos(t)ide reverse-transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs) in HIV-infected patients. Additionally, the safety of these regimens, specially lipid profiles, will be assessed.
This is a cohort study which follows two groups of participants over a 12 months period. One group will access a team approach to care with the aim of reducing their cardiovascular disease (CVD) risks from a team of doctors, nurses and health care professionals. The other group will continue to access standard care from their treating doctor. Both groups will have CVD risk score evaluated after a 12 month period. The team care approach will involve specific tests to measure CVD risk as well as smoking cessation, exercise and dietary advice and support, including monitoring such as blood pressure and cholesterol levels
This study was done to compare the safety and efficacy of three combination treatments for Kaposi's Sarcoma (KS) and AIDS: 1. Etoposide (ET) plus co-formulated Efavirenz/Emtricitabine/Tenofovir Disoproxil Fumarate (EFV/FTC/TDF) (ET+ART), 2. Bleomycin and Vincristine (BV) plus co-formulated EFV/FTC/TDF (BV+ART), 3. Paclitaxel (PTX) plus co-formulated EFV/FTC/TDF (PTX+ART).
