Filter by:The purpose of this study is to determine the safety of and immune response to a DNA HIV vaccine, pGA2/JS7, followed by a modified vaccinia (smallpox) HIV vaccine, MVA/HIV62, in HIV uninfected adults.
The study will compare the safety and efficacy of an investigation nucleoside analog reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NRTI), dexelvucitabine (DFC), to an approved NRTI, lamivudine (3TC) in HIV treatment-experienced patients who are resistant to 3 classes of antiretroviral therapies (NRTIs, PIs and NNRTIs). Patients meeting eligibility requirements will have a new 'optimized' background regimen (OBR) selected for them by their investigator based on prior ARV treatment history and the results of HIV genotype and phenotype tests performed during the screening period. In addition to treatment with the new OBR, patients will be randomized to receive treatment with either DFC or 3TC in a blinded fashion. There is a 50 percent chance a patient will receive DFC or 3TC. Treatment in the study may continue for up to 96 weeks. Patients with an inadequate response to therapy after 16 weeks will have the option to change their OBR and the option to switch to receive the other study medication (i.e., DFC to 3TC or 3TC to DFC).
This study evaluates outreach to HIV-infected people living in unstable housing in New York City who are new to CitiWide Harm Reduction. One hundred and fifty people are interviewed every 6 months, and their medical records are reviewed every 6 months for a total of 18 months. The study examines how outreach, case management, housing, drug use, mental health, and quality of life are related to people's ability to get into and stay in medical care.
This study is to look at things that may affect whether or not people who are HIV-infected get into medical care and stay in medical care. some of the things that will be examined include how drug use, HIV disease severity, mental health, housing, trust, feelings of discrimination, social support, relationship with provider, and patient's race and provider's race are linked with whether or not people get health care. People who are enrolled in the study will be interviewed once, and their medical records will be examined.
This is a 28-day, multi-center, placebo-controlled study designed to look at the dose response, efficacy, and safety of SP01A, given as a pill to be swallowed, in the treatment of HIV-infected subjects. Samaritan has discovered that SP01A affects cholesterol binding, which is directly implicated in the pathogenesis of HIV. It has also been established that drugs of this nature exert an anti-HIV effect in-vitro. These data suggest that SP01A has the potential to reduce HIV virus replication. One measurement of an HIV infected person’s risk of progressing to AIDS is the number of viral particles of HIV in their blood (called a “viral load”). This study is designed to see if SP01A will lower the amount of HIV in an infected individual's blood. Patients will be assigned by chance to 1 of 4 groups. Neither the patient nor the study doctor or nurse will know which dose of the study drug the patient is taking or if he/she is receiving the placebo (a capsule that looks like the study drug but does not contain any active ingredient). Study drug administration will continue for 28 days. At the end of the 28-day study, the patient will be offered testing of his/her virus for resistance to approved drugs (genotype).
This a Phase I/II non-randomized, open-label clinical study of 8 weeks duration using SP01A in HIV positive patients on a stable antiretroviral regimen. Dose response and safety associated with oral administration of four doses (200 mg, 400 mg, 600 mg, and 800 mg daily) of SP01A will be studied in a total of 24 study subjects. In addition, six HIV-negative subjects will be recruited as a control for cortisol secretion only and will not receive study medication.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the non-inferiority of ritonavir-boosted GS-9137 relative to a ritonavir-boosted Comparator Protease Inhibitor when used as part of combination antiretroviral regimens in subjects who have failed, or are failing, protease inhibitor therapy.
The main purpose of this study is to compare the safety, effectiveness and tolerability of using Pegasys with Copegus in people who have both the hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype 1 and HIV who continue taking HAART (highly active antiretroviral therapy) to those who discontinue taking HAART. Canadian guidelines recommend that both HIV and HCV should not be treated at the same time as the medications needed to treat these two diseases may interact and that which disease to treat first is dependent on the CD4 count. In this study, the CD4 count must be over 350 cells and one must be stable on HAART before starting the study medication Pegasys in combination with Copegus.
The purpose of this study is to collect data and body fluid samples from people with acute or established HIV infection and from HIV uninfected people. Data from this study will be used to better understand properties of HIV, including HIV transmission and the differences between acute and established HIV infections.
GW433908 (fosamprenavir; FPV)is a pro-drug of amprenavir (APV) which is more water soluble and can be formulated into a tablet with a reduced pill burden (four 700mg tablets of FPV versus sixteen 150mg capsules daily for APV. This study is designed to provide additional information on long term safety and tolerability of FPV containing regimens for those subjects who received FPV in previous GlaxoSmithKline studies.
