Filter by:This study evaluated the safety, immunogenicity, and preliminary assessment of efficacy of a novel vaccine encoding conserved elements (CE) of the HIV-1 Gag core protein, p24Gag, as a therapeutic vaccine in HIV-1 infected persons who were on antiretroviral therapy (ART). The study aimed to induce potent virus-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) responses.
This study evaluates the effectiveness of a multifaceted strategy to increase pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP; a medication regimen to reduce HIV risk) uptake among high risk African Americans in Louisville, KY. We will do this by 1) implementing a media campaign to raise awareness about PrEP, 2) providing PrEP education to medical personnel who can prescribe PrEP, and 3) partnering with AIDS service organizations to improve outreach and linkage to PrEP services.
The fastest growing HIV epidemics globally are driven by injection drug use, but only a small percentage of HIV-positive people who inject drugs (PWID) have achieved viral suppression. The proposed project will adapt a couple-based antiretroviral therapy (ART) adherence intervention for PWID and assess the feasibility and acceptability of conducting dried blood spot testing to objectively measure ART adherence as part of an intervention in a clinical setting. This project advances HIV intervention science by providing an intervention that leverages social support within the dyad to improve ART adherence among PWID, which could lead to increased viral suppression, thus decreasing HIV transmission and HIV-related morbidity and mortality.
This application proposes a 2-arm randomized controlled trial comparing the impact of PHAT Life on 350 13-17 year-old offenders' risky sex, STI, substance use, and theoretical mediators when delivered by Youth Representatives (YR) vs. probation staff (PS). 100 facilitators will be recruited to deliver the intervention and participate in the research.
This first clinical study of 10-1074-LS will evaluate its safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics profile when administered alone or in combination with 3BNC117-LS to HIV (human immunodeficiency virus) -infected and HIV-uninfected individuals.
We Prevent seeks to develop and pilot test a developmentally-appropriate relationship skills session as an addition to the current Couples HIV Testing and Counseling (CHTC) intervention for young gay, bisexual and other men who have sex with men (YMSM). This project involves three phases to develop and pilot test the intervention. Phase I collected brief quantitative survey data, in-depth qualitative interview data, and cognitive interview data from YMSM and feedback from a technical expert group (TEG) to develop and refine the two-session intervention. Phase II involved conducting a one-arm pilot of the intervention condition to further refine the intervention content with a sample of 12 YMSM (6 dyads). Phase III involves conducting a randomized controlled trial (RCT) comparing the relationship-focused intervention to a control condition, which is HIV Testing, Counseling, and Referrals (CTR) alone with a sample of 320 YMSM.
This is a phase 1 first-in-human clinical trial to assess the safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of eOD-GT8 60mer Vaccine, Adjuvanted, in up to 48 healthy adult HIV-negative volunteers.
This study will identify perceptions of PrEP in women who inject drugs (WWIDs) and develop and pilot test a targeted intervention that will be embedded in a large, urban syringe exchange program through an extensive formative evaluation process. Using perceptual mapping, an innovative marketing evaluation technique, WWIDs' PrEP perceptions will be incorporated into messaging in targeted counseling, materials, and text messaging to encourage PrEP adherence. This will then be tested in a pilot Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT) by comparing it to a general PrEP intervention to assess for uptake and adherence to PrEP, as well as improved self-efficacy and lower decisional conflict.
The aim of this study is to determine the benefits, costs and safety of community-led delivery of HIV self-testing (HIVST) kits in rural Malawi, with a focus on testing and linkage to care and prevention services among defined population sub-groups: men, adolescents aged 15-19 years old, and adults aged 40 years or older.
The purpose of this study is to test an adaptive adherence intervention, which utilizes two mobile health (mHealth) intervention designs, in an effort to promote adherence to antiretroviral therapy (ART) and achieve and maintain viral load (VL) suppression in youth living with HIV (YLH) while increasing understanding of the context for wide-scale implementation of cell phone support (CPS) and text messaging support (SMS), with and without incentives.
