Filter by:This study is aimed at assessing the safety of candidate Hepatitis C vaccines AdCh3NSmut/MVA-NSmut and HIV vaccines ChAdV63.HIVconsv/MVA.HIVconsv when administered separately or in combination to healthy volunteers. The study also aims to assess the cellular immune response generated by these vaccines when administered as mentioned above.
The purpose of this study is to test the efficacy of randomizing all young men in a neighborhood to receive: 1) soccer training; 2) soccer and vocational training; or 3) a control condition, as a means to engage young men in HIV prevention. The investigators hypothesize that the intervention will reduce young men's substance use and increase HIV testing.
Research is currently underway to develop new HIV prevention strategies. Intravaginal rings (IVRs) are one drug delivery method that is currently being studied. This study will evaluate the safety and pharmacokinetics of IVRs containing vicriviroc, MK-2048, and a combination of vicriviroc/MK-2048, in healthy, HIV-uninfected women.
This will be a Phase 1, open-label, parallel group, two-part, single-dose adaptive study in adults with moderate and mild (if needed) hepatic impairment and matched, healthy control subjects with normal hepatic function. In Part 1, healthy control subjects (n=8) matched to subjects with moderate (n=8) hepatic impairment will be enrolled. If the geometric mean total plasma area under the concentration-time curve from time zero (pre-dose) extrapolated to infinite time (AUC[0-infinity]) of GSK1265744 is increased by >2-fold in moderately impaired subjects relative to matched controls, Part 2 will be conducted to evaluate GSK1265744 PK in subjects with mild hepatic impairment (n=8) and matched, control subjects (n=8). All subjects will receive a single 30 milligram (mg) oral dose of GSK1265744. The primary objective of the study is to compare plasma PK parameters of GSK1265744 in subjects with hepatic impairment to healthy controls matched in gender, age, and body mass index (BMI).
GSK1265744 (744) is an integrase strand transfer inhibitor (INSTI) currently in development for both the treatment and prevention of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. Renal elimination of unchanged 744 is extremely low, with no parent 744 detected in the urine after a single 30 mg radiolabeled dose. Despite the minimal contribution of renal clearance on overall 744 elimination, renal impairment may potentially inhibit some pathways of hepatic and gut drug metabolism and transport, and as a result may impact 744 pharmacokinetics. The current Food and Drug Administration (FDA) draft guidance for renal impairment studies suggests that a pharmacokinetic (PK) study in patients with renal impairment be conducted even for those drugs primarily metabolized or secreted in bile. The study will be comprised of two cohorts (severe renal impairment and normal renal function) of 8 subjects each. Upon enrolment, each subject will be admitted to the study center and undergo serial PK sampling following a single dose of oral 744 30 milligrams (mg). Subjects will return to the clinic for follow-up evaluations 10-14 days after the 744 30 mg dose.
Modern antiretroviral therapeutic regimens offer a vast array of choice that permits tailored therapy for HIV patients. While modern regimens have improved the rates of virologic suppression overall and reduced adverse effects of antiretroviral treatment, an important sub-group of HIV infected persons is unable to maintain adherence to their treatment regimens, fail to achieve long term virologic control and remain at risk for HIV related disease progression and transmission of HIV infection. Hypothesis: switching from current cART regimen to a Triumeq based regimen combined with adherence support will improve the rate of HIV suppression in vulnerable populations non-adherent to the their current cART as determined by the achievement of HIV-1 RNA < 50 copies/mL at Week 24 post randomization.
We have recently reported that older patients with HIV are deficient in glutathione (GSH) due to decreased availability of cysteine and glycine, and that oral supplementation with cysteine (as n-acetylcysteine) and glycine for 2-weeks corrects their own levels, and improves (but does not fully normalize) concentrations of red-cell GSH. We also found that when GSH deficient, subjects had impaired mitochondrial fuel oxidation and this improved with an increase in intracellular GSH concentrations. These older HIV patients also had significant increases in muscle strength with improvement of GSH levels.The current proposal in older HIV patients will investigate study if cysteine and glycine supplementation for a duration of 12 weeks will result in changes in : (a) GSH levels; (b) body composition/anthropometry; (c) strength and function; (d) quality of life; (e) mitochondrial energetics; (f) biochemistry (including dyslipidemia and oxidative stress); (g) protein and glucose metabolism; (h) cognition and memory. After completing supplementation for 3 months, GSH concentrations, strength, function, mitochondrial energetics and neurocognitive tests will be measured for a further 2 months to determine the effects of washout.
The purpose of this study is to determine the lopinavir levels in blood of HIV and TB infected children (3-15kg) when given lopinavir/ritonavir in a 1:1 ratio with rifampicin containing TB regimen and its safety.
This study is a single-center, randomized, open-label, two cohorts, 3-way cross-over design in 36 subjects to assess the oral bioavailability of four new cabotegravir (CAB) sodium salt tablet formulations relative to the current CAB sodium salt formulation being used in the phase IIb studies under fasting conditions. All treatments will be administered as single 30 mg doses of CAB. Safety evaluations and serial PK samples will be collected during each treatment period. A follow-up visit will occur 10 - 14 days after the last dose of study drug. Treatment period doses will be separated by a 14 day washout. Participation in this study will be approximately 12 weeks.
People infected with HIV are at risk for cardiovascular disease (CVD). This study will evaluate the use of pitavastatin to reduce the risk of CVD in adults infected with HIV who are on antiretroviral therapy (ART). The REPRIEVE trial consists of two parallel identical protocols: - REPRIEVE (A5332) is funded by the NHLBI, with additional infrastructure support provided by the NIAID, and is conducted in U.S and select international sites (approximately 120 sites in 11 countries). - REPRIEVE (EU5332) is co-sponsored by NEAT ID and MGH, and is conducted at 13 sites in Spain.
