Filter by:The purpose of this study is to determine if, in men and women with excess abdominal fat and insulin resistance, people with HIV infection respond differently than people without HIV to interventions that typically improve body fat distribution and insulin resistance. The specific interventions are: 1. Diet + exercise program. 2. Rosiglitazone treatment. 3. A combination treatment of diet + exercise program and rosiglitazone.
To compare two commercially available platforms for assessment of HIV drug resistance to determine which provides superior virological results. We hypothesise that one test will be significantly superior to the other.
The purpose of this study was to compare the safety and tolerability of the to-be-marketed lopinavir/ritonavir (LPV/r) tablet formulation with the marketed soft gel capsule (SGC) formulation and to compare the safety, tolerability, and antiviral activity of once daily (QD) and twice daily (BID) dosing of the LPV/r tablet formulation in combination with select nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs) in patients who have not previously received antiretroviral treatment.
The objective of the study is to determine the efficacy and safety of 0.5% and 2% PRO 2000/5 gels compared to placebo in preventing vaginally acquired HIV infection.
To assess whether there exist significant differences in glucose metabolism, lipids, lactate, body composition, and bone density between HIV-infected and uninfected young men.
This study will use the NIH-sponsored Women and Infants Transmission Study (WITS) and the Pediatric Pulmonary and Cardiovascular Complications of Vertically Transmitted HIV Infection (P2C2) HIV-infected pediatric cohorts to determine how left ventricular (LV) function (particularly fractional shortening and contractility) and structure (particularly wall thickness and mass) are affected by cumulative intensity of exposure to highly active anti-retroviral therapy (HAART).
Limited data exist about combination anti-HIV treatment regimens in children, including how those drugs are cleared by the body in children. The purpose of this study is to measure the blood levels of the following combinations of anti-HIV drugs in HIV infected chilren: tenofovir disoproxil fumurate (TDF) and efavirenz (EFV) or nevirapine (NVP); TDF and darunavir (DRV) with or without EFV; and TDF and ritonavir (RTV) with or without EFV.
The purpose of this study is to determine the mechanisms by which HIV protease inhibitors contribute to the development of diabetes in HIV-infected patients. The investigators propose that some HIV protease inhibitors impair insulin secretion and increase the production of glucose by the liver.
Adherence to a doctor-prescribed anti-HIV drug regimen is crucial in the management of HIV infection. In previous studies with tuberculosis patients, directly observed therapy (DOT), a strategy in which patients are observed while taking their medications, has been proven useful in increasing patient adherence. The purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness of a new DOT strategy in HIV infected adolescents who have had difficulty adhering to anti-HIV drug regimens or regimens to prevent opportunistic infections (OIs) in the past.
This is a proof of concept (POC) single arm study of GW640385, a protease inhibitor, in combination with RTV and 2 or more nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTI) backbone. This study has a 48 week duration and is open to both treatment naive and experienced patients who are HIV positive. There are 3 intensive pharmacokinetic (PK) visits.
