Filter by:The goal of this study is to assess hepatitis C virus (HCV) treatment with Zepatier (elbasvir/grazoprevir) in HCV monoinfected and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-HCV co-infected, HCV treatment-naïve or peginterferon/ribavirin-experienced patients with HCV genotype 1a, without baseline NS5A resistance, 1b, or 4 and substance use in urban, multidisciplinary specialty clinics.
For a few years, there has been a keen interest of clinicians and patients for "lighter" antiretroviral strategies based on two- or even single drug regimens rather than the canonical triple therapy, both as initial and maintenance therapy, despite the possibility that ongoing viral replication may occur in some patients under triple-therapy. We will therefore propose such simplification strategy (DTG/3TC) while maintaining triple-therapy (DTG/ABC/3TC) in a control group and will perform an in depth analysis of the replication-competent reservoir in blood and in tissues as well as measurements of residual viremia and immune chronic activation/inflammation.
Data from a total of 2,500 walk-in or referred individuals who have been confirmed (diagnosed) HIV positive and accessing care and treatment services at the hospitals targeted by this study will be examined. The starting period for this project is estimated to be the last quarter (Q4) of fiscal year 2018.
A hybrid effectiveness-efficacy trial to evaluate a stepped care task shifted intervention to treat depression and HIV medication nonadherence in low resource settings in rural Zimbabwe.
This is a research study in which we are trying to discover new information about how HIV and herpes viruses interact with the immune system. The goal of the study is to learn more about how T-cells in your immune system respond to and fight off long-term (chronic) viruses, in order to improve medical care in the future.
This trial evaluates options for second-line antiretroviral therapy in patients failing on a non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI) and tenofovir (TDF)-based first-line regimen in the setting of the public health approach in sub-Saharan Africa (with assumed substantial nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NRTI) cross-resistance). The trial tests two hypotheses. Firstly that a regimen of dolutegravir (DTG) with two NRTIs is non-inferior to a regimen of ritonavir-boosted darunavir (DRV/r) with two NRTIs. Secondly that continuing an NRTI regimen of TDF and lamivudine (3TC) is non-inferior to switching to zidovudine (ZDV) and 3TC. The trial is a parallel group, open-label, multi-centre, factorial (2X2) randomised, controlled trial. Patients will be randomised to either DTG or DRV/r with a second randomisation to ZDV and 3TC or TDF and 3TC. Treatment efficacy will be monitored by testing viral load (VL). Analyses will compare DRV/r with DTG; and ZDV/3TC with TDF/3TC by intention to treat analysis on the primary outcome parameter of plasma VL below 400 copies/ml at 48 weeks. Trial follow-up will continue to 96 weeks.
The investigators will assess the feasibility and acceptability of a pilot intervention to keep people living with HIV (PLHIV) in southern India in care and virologically suppressed. The lack of understanding of the causes of loss from the HIV care continuum in India stifles the armamentarium of effective interventions to keep Indian PLHIV in care. The results of this research will demonstrate the feasibility and acceptability of a pilot intervention targeting the multiple mechanisms by which PLHIV become lost to care. By targeting these mechanisms, this intervention will be designed to be scalable in a setting where access to mental health specialists is limited.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the maternal and infant safety of the dapivirine (DPV) vaginal ring (VR) and daily oral Truvada in HIV-uninfected pregnant women and their infants.
The ANRS EP66 SEPTAVIH Study aims to screen feasibility of evaluating frailty in people living with HIV aged 70 or older, to estimate its prevalence, to analyse associated risk factors and to evaluate the impact of frailty on pejorative events. SEPTAVIH is a French, multicentre, prospective, observational study which will include 500 HIV-infected participants
The purpose of this study is to compare two implementation approaches [Standard Approach (SA) vs. Tailored Approach (TA)] for scaling-up the evidence-based systems navigation and psychosocial counseling integrated intervention (SNaP) in HIV test sites in Vietnam.
