Filter by:The aim of study is to describe the clinical, immunological, serological, virological and therapeutic characteristics of HIV+ patients harboring isolated anti-HBc profile and to assess the response to vaccination in these patients.
There has been increasing use of technology in delivery of healthcare and increasing use of cellular phone and text messaging services to help with various healthcare related issues including but not limited to medication adherence and clinic attendance. Mobile phones technology has been used for healthcare delivery and prevention strategies such as smoking cessation. In the present era, cell phones have become part of daily life for most people even among those in lower economic groups. There have also been several studies looking at cell phone text messaging services to improve adherence to ART among HIV infected subjects but no studies have so far been done in HIV infected young women to help retention and adherence to care. The overall goal of this study is to evaluation of the impact of texting intervention to improve adherence to care and treatment in HIV infected young women. Study Hypothesis: Text message intervention will improve adherence to ART in HIV infected young women.
This phase II trial studies the side effects and the best dose of brentuximab vedotin and combination chemotherapy work in treating patients with stage III-IV human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-associated Hodgkin lymphoma. Monoclonal antibodies, such as brentuximab vedotin, can block cancer growth by finding cancer cells and causing them to die. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as doxorubicin hydrochloride, vinblastine sulfate, and dacarbazine, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving brentuximab vedotin together with combination chemotherapy may kill more cancer cells.
The HIV/HEART study (HIVH) is an ongoing, prospective, multicentre trial that was conducted to assess the incidence, the prevalence and the clinical course of cardiovascular diseases (CVD) in HIV-infected patients. The study population includes outpatients from specialized HIV-care units of the German Ruhr region, who were at least 18 years of age, were known to have a HIV-infection and exhibited a stable disease status within 4 weeks before inclusion into the trial. From March 2004 (Pilot phase) to May 2014 (7,5 year Follow-up) 1481 HIV+ patients were recruited in a consecutive manner. The standardised examinations included a targeted assessment of medical history and physical examination. Blood was drawn for comprehensive laboratory tests including HIV specific parameters (CD4 cell count, HIV-1 RNA levels) and cardiovascular items (lipid concentrations, BNP values and renal parameters). Furthermore, non-invasive tests were performed during the initial visit, including additional heart rate and blood pressure measurements, electrocardiogram (ECGs) and transthoracic echocardiography (TTE). Examinations were completed in accordance with previously defined standard operating procedures. CVD were defined as coronary, cerebrovascular, peripheral arterial disease, heart failure or cardiac vitium.
Phase I, randomized, double blind, placebo-controlled, dose-finding trial. The trial´s goal is to evaluate two different doses of Bryostatin on HIV-1 latency and reservoir in HIV-1 infected patients receiving antiretroviral treatment.
HIV-1 infected subjects with CD4 nadir > 200 cells/mm3, no history of virologic failure and plasma HIV RNA <50 copies/mL for at least 48 weeks while on any United States Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) recommended or alternative three-drug antiretroviral regimen will be randomized to dolutegravir (DTG) plus lamivudine (Arm 1) or continuation of their current regimen (Arm 2) for 48 weeks. The primary endpoint is virologic failure defined as confirmed plasma HIV-1 RNA > 50 copies/mL before or at Week 24
The protocol will study the safety and efficacy of using sofosbuvir and ribavirin for the treatment of hepatitis c in patients taking stribild.
The purpose of this study was to compare the frequency of suicidality and suicide attempt among HIV patients starting treatment with Efavirenz and with patients starting treatment with other HIV medications.
The study aims to assess the safety and efficacy of darunavir 800mg plus the co-formulated elvitegravir/cobicistat/tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (DF)/emtricitabine (Stribild) tablet as a simplification strategy for the treatment of HIV infection in HIV-infected subjects who have had previous antiretroviral treatment experience with multiple-drug regimens. We hypothesize that elvitegravir/cobicistat/tenofovir DF/emtricitabine with darunavir will offer a safe and efficacious treatment simplification strategy for HIV positive patients currently receiving multiple-drug regimens to control their HIV infection.
The purpose of this study was to examine the safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics of different dosages of deferiprone in subjects with or without HIV infection.
