Filter by:A prospective, randomized, open-label pilot study to assess virologic suppression and immunologic recovery associated with a two-drug antiretroviral regimen of Raltegravir and the protease inhibitor lopinavir/ritonavir (LPV/r) and a three drug regimen with Raltegravir and two nRTIs (emtricitabine/tenofovir) in HIV-1 infected treatment-naïve subjects. Immunology Substudy added to determine the kinetics of recovery of CD4 T cells and subpopulations (regulatory T cell [T regs], TH-17 and TH1) after treatment initiation with Raltegravir based regimens and their relationship with functional CD8 T cells and if Raltegravir containing therapies leads to decreases in markers of gut microbial translocation and of cellular and soluble markers of immune activation.
This study will evaluate the effectiveness of an interactive virtual environment computer game in reducing risky sexual behaviors among men who have sex with men.
This study will evaluate whether childhood experiences are related to current sexual behavior of adult women.
The overall aim of the project is to evaluate rifabutin (RBT) as a replacement for rifampicin (RMP), for the combined treatment of tuberculosis and HIV infection. RBT represents an alternative to RMP for HIV infected patients as its half-life is longer and the enzymatic induction effect appears to be less important on the associated antiretroviral therapy (ART) drugs. This phase II trial is to determine precisely the pharmacokinetics parameters of RBT in combination with different ART regimens in Vietnamese HIV infected patients with pulmonary tuberculosis, in order to define optimal doses that will be further tested in a larger phase III trial comparing safety, tolerability and efficacy of RBT and RMP regimens.
The purpose of this study is to develop and test the efficacy of online HIV risk reduction interventions among men who have sex with men.
To demonstrate that patients treated with Kaletra have an improvement in their quality of life compared to the quality of life they had with their previous NRTI therapy.
Metabolic changes commonly occur in HIV therapy. The purpose of this study is to assess the impact on insulin sensitivity from the administration of tenofovir disoproxil fumarate 300 mg compared with placebo in non-HIV-1 infected healthy adult males. Additionally, endothelial function, adipocytokines and lipids will be monitored.
This study will compare the effectiveness of brief versus detailed HIV counseling sessions, paired with referrals to either HIV-specific medical care or usual care, in reducing HIV risk behavior and in increasing treatment adherence in Uganda.
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of switching from Retrovir to Tenofovir or Abacavir in HIV-infected patients
The aim of this study is to estimate the usefulness of QuantiFERON TB Gold In-Tube® and T-SPOT.TB® for the diagnosis of latent tuberculosis in HIV infected antiretroviral naive patients: 80 originated from low TB prevalence countries, without any active TB; 80 HIV infected antiretroviral naïve patients originated from high TB prevalence countries, without any active TB, 40 HIV infected patients with active TB and 40 HIV negative patients with active TB.
