Filter by:The virological efficacy of ibalizumab has been clearly demonstrated in multiple clinical trials. This study will expand ibalizumab's clinical data set and allow a better understanding of the virologic response durability on ARV regimens with or without ibalizumab in a heterogeneous real-world patient population. Additional data on the efficacy and safety of ibalizumab and its impact on patient reported outcomes will be captured until study end. Primary Objective: To evaluate the long-term efficacy, safety, and durability of ibalizumab in combination with other ARVs by comparing the virologic, immunologic and clinical outcomes of patients receiving ibalizumab treatment versus patients not receiving ibalizumab. Secondary Objective: To assess the efficacy of ibalizumab in combination with other antiretrovirals by comparing the virologic, immunologic, clinical and patient reported outcomes of patients before and after they receive ibalizumab treatment. To assess the long-term safety and tolerability of ibalizumab. Other Objectives: To assess risk factors/predictors of virologic and immunologic response. To assess efficacy and safety in special populations that enroll.
The ANRS ( Agence Nationale de Recherches sur le Sida et les Hépatites virales) 0093s Aging HAND study is to assess whether PLHIV (People Living with HIV) initially between 55-70 years of age at baseline analysis under antiretroviral therapy have accelerated decline of neurocognitive function after 6 years of follow-up. Aging HAND is a French, multicentric, longitudinal, transversal, prospective study with inclusion of 290 PLHIV.
This is a single-arm, observational study of HIV-negative MSM with substance use disorder. Those who meet pre-screening criteria will attend a Screening Visit (Visit 1), where the informed consent process will be conducted and study eligibility will be confirmed. Eligible participants will attend three additional visits over the course of the study - the Enrollment Visit (Visit 2), Month 1 Visit (Visit 3), and Month 2 Visit (Visit 4). Participants will take one PrEP digital pill per day, for 60 days total, while using the digital pill system (DPS) and Beiwe, a digital phenotyping app. On nonadherent days, participants will receive brief surveys prompting them to report the reasons for their missed dose, as well as their engagement in substance use and sexual activity. Timeline followback will be conducted at the Month 1 and Month 2 Visits to understand the context of any nonadherence. Qualitative user experience exit interviews and dried blood spots (DBS) will be conducted at the Month 2 Visit.
The RESOLVE trial is an open, parallel arm, randomized clinical trial which aims to determine the optimal strategy for management of virologic failure on first-line antiretroviral therapy (ART) with tenofovir, lamivudine, and dolutegravir (TLD) in sub-Saharan Africa. The primary outcome of interest will be viral suppression to <50 copies/mL at 48 weeks using the FDA snapshot definition. The study will be conducted in Uganda and South Africa.
This protocol describes an individually randomized trial that will include adult people living with HIV (PLHIV) currently receiving HIV care at one of two participating health facilities and identified as high risk for disengagement from care by a machine learning algorithm. Participants randomized to the control arm will receive standard of care HIV clinical services according to Tanzania's National Guidelines for the management of HIV. For those who meet clinic eligibility criteria for enhanced adherence counseling, which at the included study sites is when client's viral load reaches a detectable level (>1000 copies/ml), this includes the standard provision of three, once-monthly, 60-minute nurse-led individual, enhanced adherence counseling sessions, starting on the day of the result and for two months after. Intervention arm participants will receive the same standard HIV care services plus the offer of a cash transfer paired with visit attendance and attendance at each of the three adapted enhanced adherence counseling sessions (referred to as PKC sessions).
It is only between peak viremia and viral setpoint in natural acute HIV-1 infection that the immune response overwhelms viral replication resulting in a plasma viral load decline. The aim will be to characterize these immune responses, how they develop and their progeny. This will require the need to identify HIV-1 infected individuals before peak viremia and follow them to post viral setpoint. This protocol describes a pilot study to evaluate the feasibility of identifying, enrolling and following acute and early HIV-1 infected individuals from voluntary counselling and testing centres in Masaka, Bukomansimbi, Kalungu, Lwengo, Sembababule and Lyantonde districts.
The study is a cluster randomized controlled trial developed in counties located in Appalachia and the Midwest. We will prioritize counties from states with high risk for HIV and HCV infection associated with injection drug use.
The goal of the study is to evaluate Malkia Klabu ("Queen Club") in Tanzania, a loyalty program intervention that creates adolescent girls and young women (AGYW)-friendly drug shops where AGYW can access HIV prevention services and contraception.
Women living with HIV/AIDS (WLHA) bear a higher level of stigma because of their socio-cultural vulnerabilities. Women are more likely to internalize social stigma and produce a sense of shame and loss of self-worth, which results in a delay in health service seeking and compromised health outcomes. In Vietnam, stigma towards WLHA is exacerbated by the deeply rooted female inferiority. However, research targeting WLHA is generally lacking. We propose this study to address stigma among WLHA and explore the use of virtual support system in WLHA's service engagement in Vietnam. The 2-year study will proceed in two phases in Hanoi, Vietnam. Phase 1 will be formative studies, including in-depth interviews with 30 WLHA and focus groups with 20 service providers and community stakeholders. This phase aims to investigate the cultural and contextual background of HIV and gender roles in Vietnam and to identify effective strategies to support and engage WLHA in healthcare. These formative findings will inform the development of an intervention to be pilot tested in the next phase. Phase 2 will be a 6-month intervention pilot with 90 WLHA using an online/offline hybrid approach. During Month 1 of the pilot, WLHA will participate in an in-person section to form mutual support groups and prepare for the following online components. During Month 2-4 of the pilot, study investigators will teach WLHA a series of empowerment strategies to cope with stigma and utilize social support to seek healthcare services. These skills will be taught via interactive online group activities. During Month 4-6, WLHA will self-administer the online groups without the intervention of study investigators. WLHA's multidimensional stigma measures, mental health burdens, and service use self-efficacy will be assessed at baseline, month 4, and month 6. Progress data of the intervention will be documented to inform the feasibility and sustainability of the online support approach. Acceptability data and feedback will be collected from the WLHA participants upon completion of the 6-month pilot period.
Research Involving the Non-Interventional Human Subject (RIPH category 3). Non-interventional, cross-sectional, multicentre, descriptive and analytical epidemiological study. A cross-sectional, pseudo-anonymous questionnaire focusing on entry and retention in care will be administered to a sample of PLHIV presenting for consultation in one of the GHT hospitals over a 12-month period. A sample of 300 PHAs is envisaged to have sufficient power to highlight the main factors associated with periods of loss of sight. Main objective: - To identify factors associated with loss of sight for more than 12 months among people living with HIV in Guyana Secondary objectives: - To identify factors associated with a delay in the introduction of ARVs among PLHIV in Guyana - To describe the perception of the quality of the announcement of the diagnosis of HIV - To describe the difficulties encountered by PLHIV during their hospital follow-up in French Guyana - To assess the perceived stigma associated with HIV and its consequences in daily life
