Filter by:The purpose of this study to conduct a small randomized control trial to compare the relative effectiveness of a single-session of HIV testing and counseling risk reduction intervention (HCT-only) to an enhanced intervention that includes the standard HCT intervention plus a theory-based and culturally-tailored group-level intervention designed to reduce or eliminate HIV and STI risk behaviors (HCT-plus) among African-American men who have sex with men (AA-MSM).
The purpose of this project is to test the efficacy of an HIV prevention behavioral intervention to reduce sexual risk among African-American men who have sex with men (MSM).
The purpose of the study is to examine the efficacy of a network-oriented "outreach intervention" to reduce HIV and sexually transmitted infection (STI) related risk behaviors among African American men who have sex with men (AA MSM)and their social network. The hypothesis is to determine whether the new intervention is more efficacious at reducing high risk sexual behaviors than the standard normal of care provided to the public (a single session of individual HIV counseling and testing.
The purpose of this project is to determine the acceptability, feasibility, and the preliminary efficacy of an HIV prevention behavioral intervention (Proyecto SOL) to reduce behaviors associated with HIV acquisition among Hispanic men who have sex with men (HMSM). The primary goal of the intervention is to motivate and assist participants in forming and carrying out a "Safer Options for Life" plan, thereby reducing their risk of HIV acquisition or transmission.
The overall goal of this study is to develop and evaluate a brief, video-based, group-level intervention designed to reduce sexual risk taking among culturally diverse English- and Spanish-speaking Latino men who have sex with men (MSM).
To assess the HIV resistance rate to variable antiretroviral agents in Taiwan, especially in patients with treatment failure, and to know the correlation between the drug resistance pattern and the HIV subtype, we will enroll a total of 150~200 HIV-1-infected subjects to perform genotypic resistance testing and try to establish facility of phenotypic resistance testing.
This study will evaluate the pharmacokinetic disposition of raltegravir in pregnant HIV-1 infected women. These results will be compared to pharmacokinetic data obtained following pregnancy as well as to studies previously carried out in nonpregnant women and male patients. By determining the disposition characteristics for this specific patient population, antiretroviral (ARV) dosing can be optimized during pregnancy. Appropriate dosing is necessary to minimize adverse effects, slow progression of disease, and further reduce the risk for vertical transmission. Data will also be obtained on genital tract penetration and placenta transfer of raltegravir to the newborn. The subjects enrolled in this study will take an antiretroviral based regimen containing raltegravir twice daily both during and after their pregnancy. The specific regimen will be chosen by their own primary care provider based on their antiretroviral history and resistance testing. They will undergo a series of blood sampling for pharmacokinetic analysis over 12 hours on two occasions; a) during their 3rd trimester and b) approximately 3 months postpartum. Concentrations of raltegravir in the infant will be assessed by cord and infant blood sample at delivery and a blood sample at approximately 3 months of age. Hypothesis: The pharmacokinetic exposure of raltegravir as measured by the 12 hour area under the plasma concentration versus time curve (AUC0-12h) during third trimester pregnancy is similar to the AUC0-12h estimated three months post-partum.
In this study, adult Indonesian subjects with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) coinfected with chronic hepatitis C (CHC) will be given peginterferon alfa-2b (PEG-IFN) plus ribavirin (RBV) combination therapy. The efficacy rate (sustained virologic response, end of treatment virologic response, and sustained biochemical response), the subject morbidity rate as caused by other opportunistic infection (eg, bacterial pneumonia, tuberculosis, and other bacterial infection), and the safety and tolerability of this combination therapy will be examined.
The purpose of this study is to provide open-label vicriviroc (VCV) to human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) treatment-experienced participants who successfully completed 48 weeks of treatment on Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS) Clinical Trial Group (ACTG) protocol A5211 (or who responded favorably to treatment but discontinued participation due to viral tropism shifts), and participants who screened for ACTG A5211 and met all inclusion/exclusion criteria, but were unable to enroll due to protocol closure.
This study will examine the long term safety of apricitabine in HIV-1 infected patients from studies AVX-301 or AVX-302. Eligible patients are those who have either (a)completed studies AVX-301 or AVX-302; or (b)met the criteria for virological failure/lack of response, and consequently wish to withdraw early from studies AVX-301 or AVX-302.
