Filter by:There are few randomized clinical trials in advanced HIV patients. This is a multicenter, randomized, open clinical trial, comparing 2 parallel groups, to compare the immunological reconstitution and the virological efficacy and safety of 2 different combinations of antiretroviral therapy given once a day (QD): abacavir plus lamivudine plus either dolutegravir, or darunavir-ritonavir during 96 weeks in advanced antiretroviral naïve HIV-1 infected patients with less than 100 CD4+ T-cells/mm3. Primary endpoint is the median increase in CD4+ T-cell count at 48 weeks after starting HAART.
This study is designed to see how HIV infected patients perform when taking a single fixed dose HIV medication compared to a regimen with multiple tablets. The study is also going to be looking at the differences in complications between the two groups.
Consistent treatment with anti-retroviral therapy (ART) suppresses viral load (VL), prolonging life and improving quality of life for HIV+ persons. Suppressing VL benefits communities by reducing transmission to others. Mere availability of ART and care, however, is insufficient; the benefits of ART depend upon HIV+ persons' continuous visits to the health care provider, regular monitoring and regular delivery of medications, - known as retention in HIV care. In spite of national efforts, up to a quarter of HIV+ persons, especially low-income minorities are out of care. Innovative interventions are therefore urgently needed to maximize engagement and retention in HIV care, self-reported adherence, as well as HIV-1 RNA viral load suppression. In pursuit of these aims, the proposed study will assess outcomes of the following interventions in comparison to usual care: 1) contingency management (CM) only; 2) peer navigation (PN) only; and 3) a combined approach that integrates both CM and PN (CA) which the investigators hypothesize to be most effective in improving HIV clinical outcomes.
This study will evaluate the role of Metformin on liver fibrosis in HCV-HIV co-infected and HCV mono-infected patients with insulin resistance receiving DAA HCV treatment.
Raltegravir is the first marketed strand-transfer inhibitor of HIV-1 that was FDA approved in 2007. It is currently one of the preferred treatment regimens for HIV by the Department of Health and Human Services. It has become a widely used antiretroviral therapy option for HIV infected patients. It provides good tolerability and a favorable lipid profile for patients when compared to some other antiretroviral treatment options. Little data is reported about efficacy in a minority patient population. Moreover, data in an indigent minority population in the United States has not been aggregated before. Therefore this study will investigate the efficacy of raltegravir in minority women residing in Houston, TX who are HIV infected.
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.
Interventions during primary HIV infection (PHI) can modify the immune control and the clinical evolution during the chronic phase. Although several studies suggest the benefit of antiretroviral treatment (ART) during PHI, indication of ART is still not universally recommended. The investigators randomized patients with PHI, with a favourable immunological profile and well controlled on ART, to undergone structured treatment interruptions alone or with low doses of IL-2, stopping ART thereafter. The endpoints were immune control of HIV replication and time to resume ART. Immunological profile, specific CD4 and CD8 responses and clinical data were analysed for both groups up to 48 weeks, and during a long follow-up, up to nine years since final ART stop.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and immune response to three DNA vaccines and a MVA-CMDR vaccine that may boost the immune response to the DNA vaccines in healthy, HIV-uninfected adults.
The proposed study, 200207 is a double blind, placebo controlled, single and repeat dose escalation study to investigate the safety, tolerability and PK of GSK2838232 alone and when co-administered with RTV 100 milligram (mg) Once daily (QD). This study will enable future clinical development of GSK2838232 in healthy subjects and in a Phase IIa proof of concept study in Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) infected patients. This study is a single and repeat dose escalation study and will be conducted as two Parts. Part A will evaluate GSK2838232 20 mg and 50 mg administered QD for 8 days and Part B will evaluate GSK2838232 10 mg, 20 mg, and 50 mg, co-administered with RTV 100 mg, QD for 11 days. The extended period of dosing is to account for the longer terminal phase half-life of GSK2838232 when given with RTV. Dose cohorts will be enrolled sequentially; enrollment into a cohort will commence following review of interim PK and safety data from at least 4 subjects in the preceding cohort. Subjects in both parts will have a screening visit within 30 days prior to first dose and a follow-up visit 7-14 days after the last dose. Maximum duration of study participation will be approximately 7 weeks. Approximately 40 healthy subjects will be enrolled, 8 subjects/cohort. Subjects will be randomized 3:1 to receive GSK2838232 or placebo.
This study investigates the safety, tolerability and PKs of GSK2838232 with and without Ritonavir, and to evaluate different formulations of GSK2838232 in healthy subjects. This study will evaluate higher single and RTV boosted doses to support continued clinical development of GSK2838232 at clinically relevant doses, and subsequently in those infected with HIV in a dose ranging phase 2 study. The study is conducted in 2 parts: Part A and Part B, study Part A and Part B may be conducted in parallel. Approximately 20 healthy subjects will be enrolled into the study, 8 in Part A and 12 in Part B. Part A is a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, 4-period, single dose escalation design. Subjects will be randomized 3:1 to receive GSK2838232 or placebo. Subjects randomized to placebo will receive placebo in all four periods. Following completion of Period 2 PK assessments at 96hr post-dose, subjects will begin daily dosing of RTV 100mg for a total of 26 days. Part B is a randomized, open-label, unbalanced, 3-period, cross-over design; subjects will be randomized 1:1 to each sequence. The relative bioavailability of single 100mg doses of powder in a bottle (PIB) active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) of GSK2838232 versus PIB spray-dried dispersion (SDD) will be assessed. A single dose of GSK2838232 will co-administered on the 10th day of RTV dosing; RTV dosing will continue for an additional 4 days (total of 14 days). Subjects will have a screening visit within 30 days prior to first dose and a follow-up visit 7-14 days after the last dose.
