Filter by:This is a prospective, non-interventional, single-arm, multi-center study aimed at gathering real-world data on Juluca use in routine clinical care in Germany, to supplement clinical trial data to further improve/optimize care in HIV positive subjects in Germany. Approximately 250 virologically suppressed HIV positive subjects on stable antiretroviral therapy (ART) will be included in the study at the discretion of treating physician. Eligible subjects will be followed up for approximately 3 years and data will be collected during routine clinical care.
The purpose of this early Phase 2 comparison trial is to evaluate the impact of community health worker (CHW) home visitors on pregnant women and their children in a rural setting in the rural Eastern Cape of South Africa. The intervention provided by the CHWs targets underweight children, mothers living with HIV (MLH), mothers using alcohol, and depressed mothers with the goal of supporting pregnant women to improve birth outcomes, decrease the number of children born with a low birthweight, and develop child caretaking skills over time. UCLA has identified and matched four areas surrounding primary health care clinics: two intervention areas in which this CHW program has been running for one year, and two control areas without the program. Mothers in the research area are followed for one year after giving birth.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of autologous CD34+ cells that stably express multiplexed shRNA to treat HIV infection.
A randomized control trial to test the effectiveness of a structured online support group, SMART (Social Media to improve ART Retention in Treatment) Connections, to improve retention in HIV care services among youth living with HIV (YLHIV) in Nigeria.
Ageing is characterized by physiological changes, which can impact drug pharmacokinetics and thereby cause drug-drug interactions. This study aims to assess the pharmacokinetics of amlodipine, atorvastatin and rosuvastatin in the presence of darunavir/ritonavir (inhibitor of drug metabolizing enzymes and drug transporters), by comparison with dolutegravir (no inhibitory effects on cytochromes or transporters involved in the disposition of the evaluated co-medications), in order to characterize the importance of drug-drug interactions in elderly individuals.
The investigators propose to evaluate Rapid HIV Treatment Initiation in Baltimore in newly and previously diagnosed HIV-positive patients not in care through identification of barriers, facilitators and acceptability of Rapid HIV Treatment Initiation among newly and previously diagnosed HIV-positive patients not in care identified at the Johns Hopkins East Baltimore campus and at the Baltimore City Health Department sexually transmitted disease clinics. Using this data, a protocol for Rapid HIV Treatment Initiation among newly and previously diagnosed HIV-positive patients not in care identified at the Johns Hopkins East Baltimore campus and the Baltimore City Health Department sexually transmitted disease clinics will be developed and pilot tested. This pilot data will be used to design a multi-site study evaluating the effectiveness of Rapid HIV Treatment Initiation versus facilitated linkage to care. A model for Rapid HIV Treatment Initiation in Baltimore could be generalized to cities where the HIV epidemic has a similar demographic and risk profile such as Washington DC, Atlanta, and New York City.
This study will deploy a novel, personalized, smartphone-based intervention (PrEPSteps) that responds to real-time PrEP adherence and nonadherence detected through the use of a digital pill. The PrEPSteps intervention will be developed and refined through a series of focus groups. Participants will be screened at the Screening Visit, and, if eligible, will then begin using the digital pill system at Study Visit 1 for 2 weeks. At Study Visit 2, participants will undergo randomization to using either PrEPSteps + the digital pill, or the digital pill alone to measure PrEP adherence, for 90 days. Participants will then complete 3 monthly study visits (Study Visits 3-5) where the investigators will assess digital pill adherence, conduct manual pill counts, obtain dried blood spots to confirm adherence, provide substance use disorder counseling, and obtain urine drug screens. At Study Visit 5, the investigators will conduct a semi-structured qualitative interview with participants in the PrEPsteps arm, which will be grounded in the Technology Acceptance Model, in order to understand the user response to PrEPSteps and the digital pill. All participants will complete the final follow-up assessment 3 months after Study Visit 5 (Study Visit 6).
This study will assess the impact of an HIV-1 RNA testing intervention targeting adult patients aged 18-39 years who seek urgent care for symptoms at primary care facilities and meet specific risk criteria for acute HIV infection. All newly diagnosed HIV-infected patients in the intervention arm will be linked to care and offered both immediate treatment and assisted partner notification. Partners will also be tested using the HIV testing intervention, and pre-exposure prophylaxis will be offered to uninfected individuals with HIV-infected partners. The cost-effectiveness of this intervention will be evaluated.
The purpose of this project is to beta-test a brief waiting room video intervention that promotes early initiation of antiretroviral treatment among treatment-naïve HIV-positive patients, adherence to antiretroviral treatment and retention in care among HIV-positive patients currently on therapy, sexual risk reduction tailored to HIV-positive persons, and patient-initiated discussion of these topics with their health providers. The video is currently being created, and will be ready for beta-testing by June 1, 2016. Results of the beta-testing will be used to refine and improve the video before dissemination to HIV/AIDS treatment facilities nationally. This video project is being funded by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Division of HIV/AIDS Prevention (DHAP).
An intervention study was designed to examine the impact of impact of community home-based care intervention on mental health and treatment outcome in HIV-positive people. The intervention comprised a home-based counseling on anti-retroviral therapy (ART) adherence, psycho social support, basic health care services at the home of HIV-positive people. The intervention started in March, 2018 and completed in August 2018. The major measurements of the interventions were ART adherence, status of depression, anxiety, and stress levels.
