Human papillomavirus (HPV)-infection belongs to the most common sexually transmitted diseases worldwide. HIV-infected men having sex with men (MSM) are strongly associated with a higher prevalence of genital HPV-infection, a higher incidence of anal intraepithelial neoplasia (AIN), and, consecutively, an increased risk for anal cancer. Since the introduction of highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART), the incidence of several viral-associated neoplasias has significantly fallen in HIV-infected individuals. At the beginning of the era of HAART, a justified hope existed that genitoanal HPV-related neoplasias would also decrease based on the success of HAART-induced immune restoration. However, HAART seems to have only a small impact on the natural history of AIN as observed in a cohort of HIV-positive MSM before and after the initiation of HAART. As AIN and cancer precursor lesions of the cervix, cervical intraepithelial neoplasia, share distinct clinical similarities, cytologic smear testing for AIN has been recommended to detect and treat early lesions. Thus, this prospective study mainly focuses on the predictive value of HPV-DNA load for the development and clinical progression of AIN in HIV-infected MSM. Moreover, the course of HPV viral load under therapy for anal intraepithelial neoplasia, e.g. topical treatment with imiquimod, will be evaluated. Additionally, immunohistochemical determination of several proliferative biomarkers, as well as cytokines, will be performed.
This study will evaluate the effectiveness of a telephone-delivered coping improvement group intervention in improving quality of life in older adults with HIV.
To compare the effectiveness (efficacy, safety & tolerability) of a Single Tablet Regimen of efavirenz/emtricitabine/tenofovir DF to subjects continuing on unmodified HAART as measured by the proportion of patients who maintain viral load (HIV-1 RNA) <200 copies/mL at Week 48.
The purpose of this clinical research study is to assess the pharmacokinetics of atazanavir, identifying one or more dosing regimens of atazanavir/ritonavir/tenofovir when dosed with famotidine results in atazanavir exposures similar to those when atazanavir/ritonavir/tenofovir 300/100/300 mg is dosed without famotidine in healthy subjects.
The primary purpose of this study is to find the dose of Efavirenz for young children. The safety and how the medication is tolerated will also be studied.
This is a 24-week study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a once-daily ritonavir-boosted fosamprenavir regimen (1400mg/100mg QD) to a 200mg ritonavir-boosted fosamprenavir regimen administered either twice-daily or once-daily.
The purpose of this clinical research study is to assess the effect of Atazanavir 400 mg QD and Atazanavir/Ritonavir 300/100 mg QD at steady state on the single dose pharmacokinetics of RGZ in healthy subjects.
Many patients who already harbor drug-resistant HIV require interruption of HAART due to poor compliance, poor quality of life, toxicity or development of resistance. In these patients interruption of HAART has a negative impact on patient immune status due to the reemergence of wild-type virus which is in general more pathogenic than HIV isolates containing resistance mutations. There is a need for "bridging" antiretroviral regimens that might prolong time off conventional HAART whilst waiting for a new regimen that is either fully suppressive or less toxic or less demanding for the patient.
The purpose of this program evaluation is to determine whether the Health Love Workshop, a group-level HIV behavioral intervention, reduces HIV-related sex risk behaviors and increases HIV protective behaviors of African American women and women of African descent. The intent of this program is to support an evaluation of the efficacy of the intervention and to provide feedback to the implementing organization to increase intervention effectiveness.
