Filter by:TRIUMPH is a prospective, non-interventional observational study on the use of the fixdose combination TRIUMEQ (Dolutegravir/Abacavir/Lamivudine) and the respective monitoring measures in the practice of HIV care in Germany. The primary study objective is a descriptive report of the incidence of therapeutic monitoring measures in HIV-infected patients under TRIUMEQ therapy in everyday routine practice in Germany. The study is designed to enroll approximately 400 patients. There are no protocol-mandated visits or procedures associated with the study. Each patient is expected to participate for a maximum of 3 years or until premature discontinuation (i.e., discontinuation of TRIUMEQ, due to death, withdrawal of consent, lost to follow-up. TRIUMEQ is a registered trademark of the ViiV Healthcare group of companies.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether immersive virtual reality technology is an effective intervention tool for HIV Prevention with adolescents.
This study is designed to see how HIV infected patients perform when taking a single fixed dose HIV medication compared to a regimen with multiple tablets. The study is also going to be looking at the differences in complications between the two groups.
Consistent treatment with anti-retroviral therapy (ART) suppresses viral load (VL), prolonging life and improving quality of life for HIV+ persons. Suppressing VL benefits communities by reducing transmission to others. Mere availability of ART and care, however, is insufficient; the benefits of ART depend upon HIV+ persons' continuous visits to the health care provider, regular monitoring and regular delivery of medications, - known as retention in HIV care. In spite of national efforts, up to a quarter of HIV+ persons, especially low-income minorities are out of care. Innovative interventions are therefore urgently needed to maximize engagement and retention in HIV care, self-reported adherence, as well as HIV-1 RNA viral load suppression. In pursuit of these aims, the proposed study will assess outcomes of the following interventions in comparison to usual care: 1) contingency management (CM) only; 2) peer navigation (PN) only; and 3) a combined approach that integrates both CM and PN (CA) which the investigators hypothesize to be most effective in improving HIV clinical outcomes.
There has been increasing use of technology in delivery of healthcare and increasing use of cellular phone and text messaging services to help with various healthcare related issues including but not limited to medication adherence and clinic attendance. Mobile phones technology has been used for healthcare delivery and prevention strategies such as smoking cessation. In the present era, cell phones have become part of daily life for most people even among those in lower economic groups. There have also been several studies looking at cell phone text messaging services to improve adherence to ART among HIV infected subjects but no studies have so far been done in HIV infected young women to help retention and adherence to care. The overall goal of this study is to evaluation of the impact of texting intervention to improve adherence to care and treatment in HIV infected young women. Study Hypothesis: Text message intervention will improve adherence to ART in HIV infected young women.
Interventions during primary HIV infection (PHI) can modify the immune control and the clinical evolution during the chronic phase. Although several studies suggest the benefit of antiretroviral treatment (ART) during PHI, indication of ART is still not universally recommended. The investigators randomized patients with PHI, with a favourable immunological profile and well controlled on ART, to undergone structured treatment interruptions alone or with low doses of IL-2, stopping ART thereafter. The endpoints were immune control of HIV replication and time to resume ART. Immunological profile, specific CD4 and CD8 responses and clinical data were analysed for both groups up to 48 weeks, and during a long follow-up, up to nine years since final ART stop.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and immune response to three DNA vaccines and a MVA-CMDR vaccine that may boost the immune response to the DNA vaccines in healthy, HIV-uninfected adults.
Darunavir/ritonavir is one of the preferred antiretroviral agents as part of combination antiretroviral therapy for treatment of HIV-infected adults according to international guidelines. For children 3-12 years old, FDA has approved once daily dosing of darunavir/ritonavir. Dosing recommendations for children 6-12 years old have been approved based on a modelling and simulation procedure by the company. This pharmacokinetic study is designed to validate the proposed dosing recommendation for once daily darunavir/ritonavir in HIV-infected children aged 6-12 years old.
This is a double-blinded, randomized controlled trial of 200 HIV-infected pregnant women living in Tororo, Uganda, an area of high malaria transmission. HIV-infected pregnant women between 12 and 28 weeks gestation will be randomized to receive enhanced malaria chemoprevention with monthly dihydroartemisinin-piperaquine (DP) versus monthly DP placebo. Their HIV-exposed children will receive the same prevention regimen from 2 to 24 months of age to which the mothers were randomized. All women will receive daily trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (TS) throughout the study per Uganda Ministry of Health guidelines. Children will also receive daily TS from 6 weeks to 24 months of age. TS will be considered a study drug only in infants and children beginning 6 weeks after cessation of breastfeeding and upon exclusion of HIV infection. Women and their children will be followed for 36 months after delivery. In a subset of the study population, the investigators will conduct an intensive pharmacokinetic study that will evaluate pharmacokinetic exposure of DP and EFV. The investigators will also measure HIV-related outcomes among the women enrolled in the study. The investigators will test the hypothesis that for HIV-infected mothers and HIV-exposed infants, that enhanced versus standard malaria chemoprevention in HIV-infected pregnant women and their children will reduce the incidence of malaria among children from 0 to 24 months of age and improve the development of naturally acquired antimalarial immunity.
This is an open-label, single sequence, 2-cohort, drug-drug interaction study in healthy male and female subjects. There is no formal hypothesis, however, it is expected that the coadministration of BMS-663068 with darunavir (DRV)/cobicistat (COBI) or COBI will increase the systemic exposure of BMS-626529.
