Filter by:Approximately 200 HIV-uninfected young men who have sex with men (YMSM) at high risk of acquiring HIV infection, ages 18-22 years, inclusive, will be recruited across all participating Adolescent Medicine Trials Units (AMTU). The behavioral intervention will be assigned at the level of the site, which include Many Men, Many Voices (3MV) and Personalized Cognitive Counseling (PCC). Subjects will first complete the behavioral intervention offered at their respective site and then be provided with open label emtricitabine (FTC)/tenofovir (TDF) (Truvada®) as PrEP. Behavioral and biomedical data will be collected at baseline and 0, 4, 8, 12, 24, 36 and 48 weeks. Any subjects who become HIV infected during the course of the study will be discontinued from the study agent and followed for an additional 24 weeks after the study visit at which HIV infection is confirmed. Those subjects who meet specific bone or renal criteria at the Week 48 visit or the 24-Week HIV Seropositive visit will be followed for an additional 48 weeks in the Extension Phase to monitor longer-term outcomes of potential concerns.
This is a prospective observational cohort sub-study of subjects enrolled in the Adolescent Medicine Trials Network for HIV/AIDS Interventions (ATN) 110 (NCT01772823) or ATN 113 (NCT01769456), which is a prospective interventional trial.
Approximately 100 HIV-uninfected YMSM at high risk of acquiring HIV infection, between the ages of 15 and 17 inclusive will be enrolled across all participating Adolescent Medicine Trial Units (AMTUs). Subjects will complete the behavioral intervention selected by all participating sites, Personalized Cognitive Counseling (PCC), and will then be provided with open label emtricitabine (FTC)/tenofovir (TDF) (Truvada®) as pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP). Behavioral and biomedical data will be collected at baseline and at 0, 4, 8, 12, 24, 36 and 48 weeks. Any subject who becomes HIV infected during the course of the study will be discontinued from the study agent and be followed for an additional 24 weeks after the study visit at which HIV infection is confirmed. Those subjects who meet specific bone or renal criteria at the Week 48 visit or the 24-Week HIV Seropositive visit will be followed for an additional 48 weeks in the Extension Phase to monitor longer-term outcomes of potential concerns.
Objective: HIV infected individuals present a cluster of conditions that activate or injure the vascular endothelium. The administration of folates may exert beneficial effects on endothelial function in different populations at risk for cardiovascular disease. The aim of the study was to determine the effects of 4 weeks folinic acid supplementation on forearm vascular responses during reactive hyperemia in HIV-infected people under antiretroviral therapy. Methods: This was a prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial to compare the effects of 4 weeks daily ingestion of 5 mg folinic acid (n=15) or placebo (n=15). Participants had to be on anti-retroviral therapy for at least 6 months before enrollment, with undetectable viral load, and CD4 cell count > 200 cells/mm3. Vascular function was evaluated with venous occlusion plethysmography at baseline and after 4 weeks, for the determination of brachial artery reactive hyperemia, and after isosorbide dinitrate administration
We hypothesise that atorvastatin changes immune activation among HAART-treated adults with suboptimal cluster cell differentiation 4 (CD4) recovery by 25%
Human immune virus (HIV) infected subjects may take mineral supplements in combination with their antiretroviral medications. Calcium and Iron supplementations are commonly used and both of these have the potential to interact with Dolutegravir (DTG), this study will evaluate the potential of calcium and iron supplements to decrease DTG exposure. It will also evaluate two possible strategies for combined use; if an interaction is observed. The first strategy is a two hour separation. The second strategy involves the administration of DTG and the supplement with a meal since the presence of food modestly increases DTG exposure, and because mineral supplements can be administered with food. This is an open label, randomized, two cohort, four-period cross-over study in healthy volunteers. One cohort will examine the effects of calcium carbonate and the other cohort will examine the effects of ferrous fumarate on the pharmacokinetic (PK) of DTG. Approximately 12 subjects will be enrolled into each of the two cohorts and receive each of four treatments in a randomized fashion: 1) A single dose of DTG 50 milligram (mg) administered under fasted conditions ; 2) A single dose of DTG 50 mg co-administered with a single dose of calcium carbonate or ferrous fumarate under fasted conditions ; 3) A single dose of DTG 50 mg co-administered with a single dose of calcium carbonate or ferrous fumarate with a moderate-fat meal; 4) A single dose of DTG 50 mg administered under fasted conditions 2 hours prior to administration of a single dose of calcium carbonate or ferrous fumarate. There will be a washout period of at least 7 days between treatments. Safety evaluations and serial PK samples will be collected during each treatment period. A follow-up visit will occur 7-14 days after the last dose of study drug. This study will be conducted at one center in the United States, with healthy adult male and female subjects.
In this study, investigators propose to randomize 165 human immunodeficiency virus positive patients to one of three 16-week treatment conditions: (1) standard care; (2) standard care + cell phone-based adherence reminders; or (3) standard care + cell phone-based adherence reminders and contingency management. In this latter condition, patients will earn reinforcement for sending in time- and date-stamped self videos of antiretroviral therapy medication ingestion. Primary outcomes will include viral loads and self-report measures of adherence, and effects will be evaluated both during the treatment period and throughout a one-year follow-up. Investigators hypothesize that the cell phone reminder condition will improve adherence relative to standard care, and the cell phone reminder plus contingency management condition will have the best outcomes. Results from this study may have widespread implications for the use of cell phones as a novel technology to improve initial adherence to antiretroviral therapy, thereby reducing the spread of drug resistant human immunodeficiency virus strains to the community.
A single dose escalation study to determine the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetic profile of intramuscular and subcutaneous injections of GSK1265744 long acting parenteral (LAP) in healthy subjects. This study consists of a screening visit, a single injection, and follow-up evaluations for a minimum of 12 weeks following the injection.
A multi-center, open-label, randomized, two-period, crossover non-inferiority trial to assess the functionality of female condoms with a silicone elastomer vaginal ring.
This trial will assess the potential impact of a vaginal ring on condom use by comparing the performance (total clinical failure, clinical slippage, and clinical breakage) of a standard male lubricated latex condom when the female partner is wearing the vaginal ring and when the female partner is not wearing the vaginal ring.
