Filter by:Using quantitative and qualitative data, this study will assess the impact of community accompaniment with supervised antiretrovirals (CASA) on HIV-positive individuals and community members in Lima, Peru.
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and effectiveness of AGS-004, an immune therapy, for HIV-infected individuals. Safety and effectiveness will be tested while the individuals are both taking antiretroviral therapy (ART) medication and interrupting ART medication.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether there is a drug interaction between GSK1349572 and the HIV protease inhibitors Tipranavir/Ritonavir (TPV/RTV).
The primary objective of this pilot study is to assess the efficacy of lopinavir/ritonavir (Kaletra, a protease inhibitor, PI) when used in combination with maraviroc (Selzentry, an HIV entry inhibitor) for the treatment of antiretroviral naïve HIV infected patients. Twenty patients will be enrolled and studied for 48 weeks.
The purpose of this pilot study is to find out if taking hydroxychloroquine will decrease immune activation (stimulation of the body's defence system) in people with early HIV infection. Hydroxychloroquine is a medicine that has been used successfully for many years to treat autoimmune diseases (diseases in which the immune system causes damage to the body), e.g. lupus and rheumatoid arthritis. It is generally safe in long-term use and easily accessible. The immune system is stimulated in response to infections including HIV, so treatments that decrease immune activation may have long-term clinical benefits i.e. delay onset of treatment.
The triple therapy darunavir/r + tenofovir/emtricitabine is likely to become a relevant first-line treatment option in the years to come. The dual combination of boosted darunavir + raltegravir is an innovative treatment option that combines two potent new antiretroviral drugs, one of which belongs to a new drug class (integrase inhibitor). The expected efficacy profile of this combination is promising. Moreover, this combination might have a better tolerance profile and has the advantage of sparing the NRTI class. In the context of tenofovir/emtricitabine currently being a reference backbone in first-line antiretroviral regimens, we hypothesise that, in combination with darunavir/r, raltegravir may be an alternative option if its efficacy is non-inferior to tenofovir/emtricitabine.
The purpose of this study is to look at the effects of tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (an anti-HIV medication) on the bone health and kidneys of women with HIV during pregnancy and while breastfeeding. The study will also look at the changes in overall health, bone health and how the kidneys work in the infants of these women.
The advent of new antiretroviral drugs improved the management of HIV naive patients in terms of efficacy. However, the long term metabolic profile of this drugs has not yet been compared and associations between new antiretrovirals and cardiovascular events remains controversial. Moreover, the better tolerability and easy dosage of this new drugs might hypothetically influence adherence and QOL of HIV patients.
This survey is conducted for preparing application materials for re-examination under the Pharmaceutical Affairs Laws and its Enforcement Regulation, its aim is to reconfirm the clinical usefulness of STOCRIN through collecting the safety and efficacy information according to the Re-examination Regulation for New Drugs. Post-marketing surveys are not considered applicable clinical trials and thus the results of this survey will not be posted at its conclusion. The results will be submitted to public health officials as required by applicable national and international laws.
Raltegravir is the first integrase inhibitor approved for treatment of HIV infected patients harboring multiresistant viruses. The drug has been proved effective in both trials and clinical settings, but the long-term efficacy is not described and the effect compared to treatment in Highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) naive patients remains to be established.
