Filter by:This Cophar2 study is a trial which evaluates repeated early therapeutic drug monitoring, from weeks 2 to 24, after the initiation of HAART including either indinavir/r, lopinavir/r or the new 625 mg formulation of nelfinavir twice-a-day (bid). If trough concentrations were out of the range given for each protease inhibitor (PI), the PI dose was adjusted.
This trial is aimed at studying the antiviral activity, toxicity and pharmacokinetic (PK) interactions of tenofovir DF and atazanavir enhanced with low dose of ritonavir given alone and then concomitantly as part of a salvage regimen to HIV patients with multiple failure, under conditions allowing to tease out the specific role of atazanavir combined with low dose of ritonavir.
It is probable that a mucosal approach is necessary for a prophylactic HIV vaccine protecting against sexually transmitted infection. Mucosal immune responses have been almost non-existent in trials of HIV vaccine candidates in which the antigen was delivered systemically. This study will test the safety and immune response of a recombinant HIV-1gp160 by nasal and mucosal routes alone or formulated with DC-Chol in healthy volunteers.
Although lifelong continuous therapy with HAART remains the standard of care of HIV infection, allowing to achieve undetectable plasma viral RNA, restore CD4 cell count and provide substantial decline in HIV-related morbidity and mortality, long-term toxicity associated with antiretroviral therapy is a real concern. The purpose of this study is to compare an intermittent therapy strategy to a continuous treatment in patients with chronic and well controlled HIV-1 infection.
The purpose of this study is to try a known antiretroviral combination in HIV- infected children with only one intake a day, in order to simplify the prescription and improve adherence to treatment. This is what is called a phase II clinical trial, only recruiting and following a small number of children (50) during one year to evaluate the quantity of drug in the blood just before it is taken and one to three hours after it is taken. The other important objective is to study the tolerance of drugs in that mode of prescription of the triple combination.
Observational studies suggest that male circumcision may provide protection against HIV-1 infection. A randomized, controlled, intervention trial was conducted in a general population of South Africa to test this hypothesis.
This Phase 2a study involving Tenofovir Disoproxil Fumarate (TDF) will provide extended safety data for high-risk men. Secondarily, the study will assess the feasibility of conducting the trial and evaluate the preliminary effectiveness of TDF 300 mg as an HIV prevention method when taken once a day.
This Phase 2 study involving tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) will assess the extended safety of TDF 300 mg per day among young women who are not HIV-infected.
This is a randomized prospective study into metabolic adverse events during different types of initial antiretroviral therapy in HIV-1-infected men.
Racivir ® (RCV) is an experimental drug which means it is not approved for use by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA), but it can be used in research studies like this one. RCV (Racivir®) is part of a class of drugs known as "Nucleoside Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitors" (NRTIs), which are intended to block a further increase in the amount of HIV virus in the body. Laboratory research suggests that RCV (Racivir®) may be effective in patients who have developed resistance to other NRTIs, particularly 3TC (lamivudine, Epivir®). However, a study of RCV (Racivir®) has not been done with patients who have previously been treated with other HAART (Highly Active Antiretroviral Therapy -- taking multiple HIV drugs at once) medications including 3TC (lamivudine, Epivir®). The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of RCV (Racivir®) when used together with other HIV drugs in people who have previously been treated with 3TC (lamivudine, Epivir®) and are failing with their current HAART treatments. This study will include a total of 60 HIV infected, HAART-experienced subjects currently receiving 3TC (lamivudine, Epivir®) as part of their HAART therapy. The study will take place at approximately 11 study sites in the US and Latin America.
