Filter by:The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of semaglutide on intra-hepatic triglyceride (IHTG) content in people living with HIV (PLWH), central adiposity, insulin resistance or pre-diabetes, and hepatic steatosis.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and antiviral activity of the monoclonal antibody PGT121.414.LS administered alone and in combination with VRC07-523LS via intravenous or subcutaneous infusions in healthy, HIV-uninfected adult participants.
This study aims to assess the feasibility and utility of birth testing using point-of-care (POC) testing in maternity settings in Eswatini.
This study aims to assess the feasibility and, acceptability and effects of implementing HIV testing at birth testing using point-of-care (POC) HIV nucleic acid testing (NAT) in maternity settings.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the impact of the new South African Department of Basic Education (DBE) sexuality and HIV education program that uses scripted lesson plans and supporting activities and will be implemented by Education Development Center (EDC). The primary outcomes are the incidence of HSV-2 or pregnancy among a cohort of learners in grade 8 and followed for two years in two provinces of South Africa.
The overarching goal of this formative research is to examine whether, and in what combination, contingency management (CM) and motivational interviewing (MI) can facilitate entry of stimulant-using men who have sex with men (MSM) into the pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) care continuum.
Stigma related to PrEP interest and uptake, and medication cognitions related to PrEP adherence and persistence remain strong barriers to improving PrEP use. To address these areas, the investigators are proposing to develop an intervention grounded in two novel cognitive/behavioral theories: the HIV Stigma Framework and the Medication Necessity-Concerns Framework. Advances in biomedical HIV prevention, such as the availability of PrEP, will only impact the HIV epidemic if concurrent efforts are made to address the social and behavioral challenges that are associated with achieving sufficient coverage of PrEP among individuals at elevated risk for HIV.
DREAM-02 is a phase 1, open label study to evaluate different sequences of tap water douching and simulated receptive anal intercourse (sRAI) in the presence of a tenofovir douche designed to confer protection from Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) acquisition. DREAM-02 will assess the safety and pharmacokinetics (PK) of different sequences of administration of tap water (H2O) and rectal tenofovir (TFV) douches to more accurately represent the community practice of commonly using cleansing douches prior to RAI, and occasionally after RAI. DREAM-02 results are essential to gain understanding of Tenofovir diphosphate (TFV-DP) concentrations at various anatomic distances in the colon, and how those concentrations may be modified by sRAI, seminal fluid, and sequence of cleansing tap water douches.
The investigator propose to culturally adapt the mindfulness-based stress reduction (MSBR) intervention for Black/African American women living with HIV (WLWH) to reduce stress and enhance HIV self-care behaviors and viral load (VL) suppression, which has the potential to attenuate prominent racial and gender disparities experienced by Black WLWH in the US. Specifically, the investigator aims to 1) culturally adapt the MBSR intervention for Black WLWH using ADAPT-ITT; 2) pre-pilot the adapted intervention via an open non-randomized pilot study to further refine the culturally adapted intervention; and 3) conduct a 2-armed randomized pilot test of the behavioral intervention compared to standard of care to assess the feasibility and acceptability the adapted MBSR intervention for Black WLWH. The investigator hypothesis that the adapted intervention will be feasible and acceptable to member of the target population.
This study is intended to evaluate: 1. Any changes in the gut microbiome from baseline compared to end of study in both healthy (HIV-negative) subjects and HIV+ patients with or without chronic diarrhea, following one month of treatment with crofelemer (Mytesi), delayed release 125 mg tablets twice daily (BID) following one month of treatment. 2. The safety and tolerability of crofelemer, (Mytesi) delayed release 125 mg tablets BID in healthy (HIV-negative) volunteers and HIV+ patients following one month of treatment.
