Filter by:This is a single-site, longitudinal, open-label, interventional study for evaluating the effect of maraviroc on hepatitis C viral levels in patients infected with both hepatitis C and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and taking antiretroviral therapy for HIV.
This is a two-part study. The first part is a single-dose open label design. The second part employs a multiple dose, randomized, placebo controlled study design. Studies have demonstrated that GRFT is highly potent for HIV prevention and is effective at very low concentrations. One 4 mL dose of PC-6500, designed to provide an adequate vaginal concentration of GRFT for the prevention of HIV, based on preclinical data, will be evaluated. Rising dose tolerance is not the goal of this study because GRFT is likely to be minimally absorbed systemically, if at all.
The purpose of this research is to study different strategies to identify women at highest risk for anal cancer. Primarily, investigators want to study a risk assessment called the Anal Cancer Risk Index; it gives women an overall number score based on risk factors that they may have for anal cancer, such as age, number of sexual partners, or smoking. Investigators seek to understand whether women with higher Anal Cancer Risk Index scores are more likely to have abnormal results on anal pap smears, HPV tests, or anal biopsies. The study team will collect swabs of the cervix and the anus to study different laboratory tests that could identify women at highest risk of cervical and anal cancer. These laboratory tests include an anal pap smear, tests for markers of disease and tests that detect the HPV types most likely to cause cancer. The study team would like to see which of these laboratory tests do the best job at predicting precancerous lesions in the anus and are better indicators of risk for cancer. After collecting these swabs, women will have a procedure called high resolution anoscopy where investigators look closely at the anus and biopsy any suspicious areas. Finally, the study team will look for HPV proteins and changes that HPV can make in cells to see if these tests predict anal lesions.
An oral dose in healthy subjects to determine the relative bioavailabilty of BMS-626529 administered as BMS-663068
This study evaluates the impact of highly active antiretroviral therapy on the size of the latent viral reservoirs in resting CD4+ T cells and monocytes in HIV positive patients. The activation state of the cells will be assessed, by measuring the activation of Akt, to determine its influence on the size of the viral reservoirs.
HIV Open-label Prevention Extension (HOPE).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of the AIDSVAX B/E vaccine and the MVA/HIV62B vaccine in healthy, HIV-1-uninfected adults who previously received MVA/HIV62B in DNA/MVA or MVA/MVA vaccine regimens in the HVTN 205 study.
The purpose of this study is to explore a possible link between the autonomic nervous system and immune function in patients with HIV. Sometimes HIV can cause these nerves to function abnormally, this is called HIV-associated autonomic neuropathy (HIV-AN). HIV-AN is a condition that is different from person to person. In some people it causes no symptoms and is not harmful, in others it may cause symptoms such as dizziness or lightheadedness, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, constipation, or problems urinating. Most people with HIV-AN don't know that they have it. One of the important nerves in the autonomic nervous system is the vagus nerve. Abnormal function of the vagus nerve may cause stomach and intestinal slowing, which could lead to an overgrowth of bacteria. The body senses these bacteria and tries to fight them, leading to inflammation. In this study the researchers will test whether abnormal function of the vagus nerve in HIV is associated with stomach slowing and overgrowth of bacteria, and if a drug called pyridostigmine can help.
The aim of this protocol is to evaluate the effects of romidepsin plus 3BNC117 or romidepsin alone on delaying or preventing viral rebound in ART-treated HIV-1-infected individuals during an analytical interruption of ART.
HSPOT is a cluster-randomized trial designed to determine whether HIV self-tests are acceptable and improve HIV testing rates and HIV status knowledge among female sex workers in Kampala, Uganda. This study will determine whether directly giving participants an HIV self-test or giving them a coupon to collect a test at a drug store or clinic improves outcomes compared to standard of care.
