Filter by:This study is aimed to evaluate the effects of yoga intervention versus usual care (control group) for reducing stress among people living with HIV in Indonesia.
This is a single-dose clinical study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and anti-retroviral activity of MK-8527 in antiretroviral therapy (ART)-naïve participants with human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection. The primary hypothesis is that, at a dose that is safe and generally well tolerated, MK-8527 will have antiretroviral activity as measured by a reduction from baseline in plasma HIV-1 ribonucleic acid (RNA) of ≥1.0 log10 copies/mL.
Aim: To explore the effectiveness of psychoeducation and problem-solving (Life-steps) on depression and adherence in HIV-infected adolescents. Methods: Forty-two adolescents were randomized into 21 controls and 21 intervention groups. The intervention group was exposed to 5-week sessions of life steps applied by a lay counselor. The PHQ-9 and visual analog scale (VAS) were used to measure the outcomes: depression and adherence. They were applied at baseline, 5-weeks, and 24 weeks post-intervention.
In Mali, migration from rural zones is a cultural phenomenon existing since 1970. During the dry season (9 months), an important number of young women leave their villages and migrate towards urban zones to seek for a job. In Bamako, the estimated number of housekeepers is 100 000 coming from rural regions and aged between 11 and 19 years. The current healthcare offer seems to be non-adapted to their particularities. This is a community-based research constructed on the basis of the activities of two NGOs in Mali: ADDAD (association for the defense of the rights of Housekeepers and domestic helpers ) and ARCAD Santé PLUS (the main NGO for healthcare access for HIV, hepatitis, and sexual health services). The research is conducted by the SanteRCom team in the UMR1252 SESSTIM research unit. The main objective of this observational study is to study the knowledge, beliefs, behaviors and practices in terms of health in general, and sexual health in particular; and to assess the acceptability of an offer of community-based prevention and health services provided by ARCAD Santé PLUS integrated in the activities of ADDAD. The integrating of community-based healthcare offer in a familiar and reassuring framework, such as that of ADDAD, should promote access to health services among housekeepers. The research is organized in 3 stages: 1. Preliminary qualitative survey based on focus group discussions. Allowing the identification of the housekeepers' needs in terms of prevention and healthcare services; and the behavioral particularities of the housekeepers community. It is planned to conduct 7 focus groups including between 42 and 56 housekeepers. 2. Communication and awareness campaigns in the regions of origin of housekeepers. Campaigns will be constructed on the basis of the results obtained from the preliminary qualitative survey. 3. Communication and awareness campaigns in Bamako; community-based activities for housekeepers will be organized 3 times per week during 5 months by the NGO ADDAD. Activities will include the community-based offer of prevention and healthcare services provided by the NGO ARCAD Santé PLUS, i.e. the novelty in the ADDAD's activities. A quantitative and qualitative surveys will be conducted over 5 months with participants recruited during the community-based activities. It is expected to enroll at least 1134 housekeepers, and to conduct a maximum of 25 individual interviews with selected housekeepers.
This is a 90-day medication adherence study testing the HiDO is an automated AI-driven direct observation medication adherence platform, which is a 510K-exempt, Class I medical device with 24 people with HIV/AIDS, ages 18 to 55, who are currently taking ART and reporting less than 100% adherence. The aims of the study are to see whether the device can achieve >95% ART adherence among all participants averaged over 90 days and to perform usability testing using the System Usability Scale and Net Promoter scores.
The primary objective is to assess the safety and tolerability of samRNA vaccines GRT-R912, GRT-R914, and GRT-R918 when administered as prime and/or boost in healthy adult participants naïve to severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), SARS-CoV-2 convalescent, previously vaccinated, or non-vaccinated participants, and people living with HIV (PLWH) or HIV-negative.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the impact of a social media campaign and community engagement activities to promote pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) use among young women and to influence community norms around PrEP in South Africa. To do this, the investigative team will analyze PrEP initiation and retention data from the study's implementing partner, TB HIV Care, a non-profit organization providing PrEP to marginalized young women in South Africa. The effect of the social media campaign and community engagement will be tested using a short duration cluster randomized trial (CRT).
This FTIH study aims to evaluate the safety, tolerability and PK of the novel investigational Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-1 capsid inhibitor VH4011499 in healthy adults. The study will be conducted in 3 parts: Part 1 will investigate single ascending doses (SAD) and Part 2 will investigate multiple ascending doses (MAD). Part 3 will investigate single dose of a new formulation of VH4011499. The transition from SAD to MAD will be based on the assessment of the Safety and Dose Escalation Committee.
The Visceral Adiposity Measurement and Observation Study
HIV continues to spread around the world and new infections in Asia are one of the most important areas for prevention among drug using populations. There is strong and consistent evidence from several countries that while injection drug users (IDU) continue to be a source of new infections, treatment of opiate addiction is an effective prevention measure against further spread. The project evaluated the implementation of a comprehensive opioid use disorder treatment program co-located with an HIV clinic in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. The program includes medication for opioid use disorder (methadone, buprenorphine/naloxone), standardized counseling sessions (BDRC) and HIV testing and care (for people living with HIV).
