Filter by:This is a multi-center, longitudinal observational study of adult human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) participants at academic and community-based practices in the United States who are switching from first-line to second-line therapy. The study's primary hypothesis is that HIV participants switching to raltegravir-based regimens will have better Medical Outcomes Study-HIV (MOS-HIV) Health Survey scores than participants switched to non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI)-based or protease inhibitor (PI)-based regimens.
This is a double-blind Phase 2a study to test the safety and efficacy of an investigational HIV drug, amdoxovir (300 mg or 500 mg twice daily) compared with tenofovir DF 300 mg once daily in HIV-1 infected antiretroviral therapy-experienced subjects who are currently failing antiretroviral therapy. There are three treatment groups (N=45). Subjects will be randomized to receive either amdoxovir 300 mg twice daily (n=15) or amdoxovir 500 mg twice daily (n=15) or tenofovir DF 300 mg once daily (n=15); each in combination with zidovudine 300 mg twice daily. The study will assess initially amdoxovir (300 mg or 500 mg twice daily) or tenofovir DF 300 mg once daily, both in combination zidovudine 300 mg twice daily plus failing third drug, but then with lopinavir/ritonavir (400 mg/100 mg twice daily) after Week 2. Subjects who received amdoxovir (300 mg or 500 mg twice daily) and benefited from the drug may choose to enroll in the 36-week open-label study.
The main objective of this study is to evaluate and to compare the specific antibody response to a " prime-boost " vaccine strategy combining the seven valence pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PnCj) prime at W0 followed by the administration of the pneumococcal capsular polysaccharide vaccine (PPS) boost at W4, to the administration of the pneumococcal capsular polysaccharide vaccine (PPS) alone at W4 in patients with common variable immunodeficiency.
This study consists of evaluations, using blood tests, various immune, inflammatory and coagulation parameters in the perioperative settings (different substudies), without changing anything to what is expected. This will allow us to clarify the possible impact of surgery and analgesia on perioperative activation of these pathways.
HIV related cognitive impairment still occurs despite highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART). HIV disease affects the brain in 20-40% of patients with advancing HIV disease leading to varying degrees of cognitive impairment, recently termed HIV associated neurocognitive disorders (HAND). HAND may occur in patients who are virally suppressed in both blood and CSF. Patients with HIV Associated Neurological Disorders (HAND) who are virally suppressed in both their blood and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), whilst on a highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) regimen may have significant cognitive improvement with HAART intensification with the medication RaltegravirĶ¾ compared to those who remain on their existing regimen. This study will be a prospective, interventional, randomised and unblinded controlled clinical trial. The aim of this study will be to determine whether HAART intensification with the medication Raltegravir, leads to significant improvement in HIV associated neurological disorders (HAND). Patients with the recent progression (within 6 months) of HAND (validated by neuropsychological assessment) on HAART who are virally suppressed (<50 copies per ml) in blood and CSF will be randomised to have their existing HAART regimen intensified with raltegravir 400mg twice daily, or not. The control arm will remain on their medication regimen as prescribed. The target is to enrol 110 patients into the control group, and 110 patients into the Raltegravir intensification group. Patients will undergo baseline neuropsychological testing, MRI, blood tests, and cerebral spinal fluid (CSF) tests (via a lumbar puncture). The methods used to determine the effectiveness of adding Raltegravir, will include further neuropsychological testing at 6 months; and neuropsychological testing, MRI and CSF assessment at 12 months. Neuropsychological testing completed at 6 and 12 months will be completed by a "blind assessor", in that they will have no knowledge of which arm (treatment or control) the participant is enrolled in. An evaluation (neuropsychological testing) will be performed should the patient deteriorate during the course of the study, as recognised by the patient's managing physician. The decision of the Antiretroviral medication regimen to be used in such a case will be determined by the managing physician. At the end of the study protocol (12 months) the patient's HAART therapy will be managed by their primary physician.
Evaluation of antiretroviral therapy combining Raltegravir and Maraviroc in patients with virological success, presenting with clinical lipohypertrophy.
This 96 week, Phase 2b study in 150 HIV-1 infected antiretroviral (ART) naive adult subjects consists of a dose-ranging evaluation of GSK2248761 at blinded doses of 100 mg and 200 mg once daily with a control arm of open-label efavirenz (EFV) 600 mg once daily. The background ART for all 3 arms will be chosen by the Investigators and will be either abacavir/lamivudine [ABC/3TC] or tenofovir/emtricitabine [TDF/FTC] fixed dose combination (FDC) tablets. Antiviral activity, safety, PK, and development of viral resistance will be evaluated.
This 48 week, phase 2b study in 150 HIV-1 infected antiretroviral therapy experienced adult subjects consists of a dose-ranging evaluation of GSK2248761 at blinded doses of 100 mg and 200 mg once daily with a control arm of open-label etravirine (ETV) 200 mg twice daily. The background ART for all three arms will be darunavir/ritonavir (DRV/r) 600 mg/100 mg twice daily plus raltegravir (RAL) 400 mg twice daily. Antiviral activity, safety, PK, and development of viral resistance will be evaluated.
This study is a two-period, double-blind study in healthy adult female subjects. Each subject will participate in an oral contraceptive Run-in period prior to the treatment periods. The length of the Run-in Period will be 28 days or longer, depending on the timing of the subject's menstrual cycle and on whether the subject is taking an OC. Each subject will participate in this run-in period (if needed), followed by two treatment periods. Treatment Periods 1 and 2 must be conducted successively. Subjects will be randomized in a cross-over fashion to either YASMIN with GSK2248761 or Placebo for 10 days and switch GSK2248761 or placebo for another 10 days. Subjects will return to the study center for final follow up evaluations 7 - 14 days after the final dose of study medication.
The goal of this study is to develop a novel approach to hematopoietic stem cell transplantation for children with Severe Combined Immunodeficiency Disease (SCID) that eliminates the use of toxic chemotherapy conditioning and maximizes the likelihood of T and B cell immune reconstitution. Rather than classic chemotherapeutic agents, the investigators will utilize a targeted stem cell mobilizer, plerixafor, in combination with alemtuzumab, a monoclonal antibody. Correlative scientific questions will include: 1) efficacy and characteristics of host stem cell mobilization; and 2) alemtuzumab pharmacokinetics in very young children.
