Filter by:The primary objective of this trial was to assess the presence of susceptibility to tipranavir and other ARVs of the HIV-1 isolates in treatment experienced patients. The secondary objective was to examine clinicians' use of HIV drug resistance testing in treatment experienced patients currently failing a PI based HAART regimen.
To obtain information on clinical practices for patients treated by Aptivus in real life
This 2 arm study will assess the efficacy and safety of a new regimen of Fuzeon + optimized background antiretroviral treatment, in Fuzeon-naive HIV-1 infected patients with virological failure. Eligible patients will be randomized to recei ve either new optimized treatment alone, or optimized treatment + Fuzeon 90mg s. c. twice daily, to determine the effect of 3 month induction with Fuzeon.It will be possible for a patient to receive several additional 3 month periods with F uzeon, in the case of new virological failure. The anticipated time on study tre atment is 3-12 months, and the target sample size is <100 individuals.
The therapeutic DNA vaccine, DermaVir, represents an immunization strategy that targets lymph node dendritic cells. Because of the high percentage of naive CD4 cells in children and adolescents, the potential for effective new HIV-specific CD4 cell responses may be more achievable in children than in adults. The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of DermaVir in children and young adults.
The purpose of this research study is to see if HIV that persists despite current antiviral therapy can be targeted by new treatments. We will see if adding Raltegravir (MK-0518) and Valproic acid (VPA) to current ART can decrease the amount of latent HIV.
Data collection for better patient characterization in a highly treatment experienced population. Studying the clinical practice for the treatment of HIV multiexperienced patients in the real life. The research will be divided into two phases: - The first phase intends to define and understand the clinical practice using a questionnaire about general topics: definitions of multiexperienced patients and VL failure, therapeutic strategies and behaviour in particular cases. - The second part of the research will collect the clinical data of double PIs failure patients.
The purpose of this study is: 1. To assess and characterize the PK and PD of PRO 140 administered IV 2. To assess the antiviral activity of PRO 140 3. To assess the safety and tolerability of PRO 140
IPM 012 is a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled phase I study conducted at one research center in Belgium among 36 healthy, HIV-negative women of 18-40 years of age, randomized in a 1:1:1 ratio to assess plasma, vaginal fluid and vaginal tissue levels and the pharmacokinetics of dapivirine when applying either Dapivirine Gel 4750, 0.05%, 2.5g or Dapivirine Gel 4789, 0.05%, 2.5g intravaginally for 11 days (1 day followed by a 3 day washout period and then 10 consecutive days); and to assess the safety of these gels as compared to the intravaginal HEC-based universal placebo gel.
Apricitabine is a new NRTI which is active against drug-resistant HIV. NRTIs are often included as part of patients' treatment, but many HIV-infected patients develop resistance to commonly used NRTIs such as lamivudine (3TC) and emtricitabine (FTC). This study will examine whether including apricitabine as part of patients' treatment is more effective than including lamivudine,when patients change treatment because of drug resistance.
A study concerning viral kinetic with 10 co-infected HIV-HCV patients on treatment with peginterferon alfa-2a + ribavirin o IFN + ribavirin was reported in Conference on Retroviruses and Opportunistic Infections 2002 by Dr. Torriani shown half-life of HCV virions and the viral clearance was larger than mono-infected patients. The doubt is if this difference in viral kinetic of HIV-HCV co-infected patients versus mono-infected is related with the loss of profited on treatment. In the APRICOT trial patients genotype 2/3 were treated for 48 weeks and the relapse rates was only 2%. The present study want to evaluate is the treatment extent for 24 weeks more in patients genotype 1 and/or 4 will be improve the percentage of patients with viral clearance at the end of the follow-up period, to prevent relapsed in patients with response at the end of treatment. Patients will be randomized to received 180 µg/week of peginterferon alfa-2a + 1000-1200 mg/day of ribavirin during 24 weeks more or control.
