Filter by:HIV infection is associated with premature aging of the immune system. It is believe that the persistent inflammation that accompanies HIV infection is a major contributor to premature immune aging. Fish oil has well-documented anti-inflammatory properties. In this randomized, clinical trial, we're testing whether a 12-week course of fish oil supplementation will reverse premature aging in HIV-infected older adults.
This is a 24-week, one arm, open-label, interventional, non-comparative multicenter study to evaluate lipid changes in HIV infected women with hyperlipidemia on boosted PI based regimen after switching their boosted PI to raltegravir at standard dosage with 400mg twice daily. This study aims to study the effect on metabolic profiles by switching hyperlipidemic HIV infected women from a PI based regimen to raltegravir.
The purpose of this study is to select the best dose level (amount of drug given) and best formulation of the study drug (BMS-955176) to develop further.
This study will allow to assess liver related injuries in HIV patients.
This study is designed to estimate the two-way drug interaction between DCV and DTG as a drug interaction between DTG and DCV is expected to be low and this study is to be performed as confirmation. This will be a single-center, open-label, three-period, crossover study in healthy adult subjects. This study to describe and compare steady-state plasma DTG and DCV pharmacokinetics following administration of DTG 50 mg q24h with and without DCV 60 mg q24h and following administration of DCV 60 mg q24h with and without DTG 50 mg q24h also the safety and tolerability was assessed after a repeat dose DTG 50 mg q24h with or without DCV 60 mg q24h and after a repeat dose DCV 60 mg q24h with and without DTG 50 mg q24h
Background: - The immune system protects the body from infection. But it can also cause harm. For example, the clotting system makes blood clot and protects from bleeding. But blood clots are sometimes harmful. People with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection have increased inflammation and clotting. This may increase their risk for diseases like stroke or heart attack. Researchers want to know how aspirin or HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors (so-called statin medications) affect the immune and clotting systems of people with HIV. Aspirin is a medicine to decrease clotting. Statins are medications given to lower cholesterol and decrease inflammation. Objectives: - To see how aspirin or statins change immune and clotting systems in people with HIV. Eligibility: - Adults 18 and older with HIV and a low viral load, not on aspirin or a statin medication. They must also have either: (1) never taken anti-HIV medications (ARVs), have a suppressed viral load, have stable CD4 counts, and never had an opportunistic infection; or (2) been taking ARVs for 5 continuous years and have a suppressed viral load for more than 3 years. Design: - Participants will be screened with medical history, physical exam, and blood and lab tests. - Participants will repeat screening tests and have an MRI. An MRI is a way to visualize blood vessels in the neck and head. Participants will lie on a table that slides in and out of a cylinder surrounded by a magnetic field. - Participants will take either study drug once daily for 9 months. - Participants will have a blood procedure twice. Blood will be removed through a needle in one arm and circulated through a machine that removes white blood cells. The blood, minus white blood cells, is returned through a needle in the other arm. - All participants will be observed for 3 months before and after treatment.
DOL-ART is a multi-center, prospective, non-interventional study of the use of doluetegravir as part of an antiretroviral combination therapy in routine daily practice in Germany. The primary study objective is a descriptive characterization of the frequency of therapeutic monitoring measures in HIV-infected patients under dolutegravir-containing ART in routine daily 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 dolutegravir, due to death, withdrawal of consent, lost to follow-up).
This study is a Phase IIa, randomized, multi-site, two-arm, double-blinded study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and acceptability of GSK1265744 long acting injectable formulation (744 LA) in adult male subjects. To evaluate the safety and tolerability of the injectable agent, 744 LA (800 milligrams (mg) dose administered at three time points at 12 week intervals) through Week 41 in HIV-uninfected men. Eligible participants will be randomized in a 5:1 ratio to receive 744 LA or matching placebo. Participants will receive daily oral 744 (30 mg tablets) or matching placebo for 4 weeks during the Oral Phase of the study, followed by a one week washout period. Following safety lab assessments from the Oral Phase, participants will enter the Injection Phase and receive Intramuscular (IM) injections of 744 LA or placebo at three time points at 12 week intervals. IM injections will consist of 800 mg of 744 or a matching control
In this study, the dolutegravir/abacavir/lamivudine (DTG/ABC/3TC) fixed dose combination (FDC) tablet is being made available to women who become pregnant while participating in study ING117172. Continuation of antiretroviral therapy (ART) is key to both mother and the unborn fetus in order to maintain virologic suppression in the mother (thereby decreasing the risk for maternal disease progression), but also to reduce the risk of maternal-fetal transmission of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) to her unborn child. This study also offers the first opportunity to investigate the impact of pregnancy on DTG pharmacokinetics (PK). This is an open-label, single arm interventional study. The number of women that will be enrolled into this study cannot be established a priori, as unintended pregnancies cannot be determined in advance. The maximum number of women would include all of those women randomized to DTG/ABC/3TC FDC (approximately 237), though unintended pregnancies in all of these women would not be anticipated.
This study will implement a socio-behavioral intervention in Quezon City, the Philippines, using a community-based participatory approach. The intervention involves 1-2 psychosocial and health education training workshops for the establishment managers and their workers, focusing on HIV/AIDS risk reduction information and condom use and condom negotiation skill-building. Participants will also be invited to do dream-building activities that explore their personal goals and goals for their organization of peers.
