Filter by:This study will compare the ability of fosamprenavir 700 mg with ritonavir 100 mg twice a day or lopinavir 400 mg with ritonavir 100 mg twice a day both combined with a fixed dose combination tablet of abacavir 600 mg and lamivudine 300 mg once a day to suppress virus levels of HIV to less than 400 copies/mL of blood. In addition we will study the safety and tolerability of these compounds over the 48 week study period in patients naive to anti-HIV therapy.
People recently infected with HIV who are treated with anti-HIV medications may develop strong immune system responses to HIV and may be able to control the virus without continuing to take these medications. The purpose of this study is to see if giving anti-HIV medications to people soon after they have been infected with HIV can help them control HIV. The study will also see if the immune system can control the amount of HIV virus in the blood (viral load) even after a person has stopped taking the medications. The study will evaluate three different schedules of stopping and starting anti-HIV medications to see which schedule is best able to boost a patient's immune system to control HIV viral load. Hypothesis: Combination therapy started in primary HIV infection, in conjunction with structured treatment interruptions, will result in greater control of viremia off treatment than induction therapy alone.
The aim of this study was to assess whether TRIZIVIR, administered twice-daily was as safe, tolerable and efficacious as a combination of the drugs COMBIVIR administered twice-daily and atazanavir administered once daily. Over the course of 48 weeks, various parameters that measure safety, tolerability and efficacy of the investigational drugs were measured and compared.
Purpose: To provide a mechanism for the emergency use of tigecycline in the appropriate clinical situations.
To compare the efficacy and safety of IV tigecycline to IV levofloxacin in the treatment of subjects with CAP requiring hospitalization.
Tuberculosis (TB) is highly endemic in sub-Saharan Africa. The increased burden of TB in settings with high prevalence of the Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) is associated with high rates of transmission of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M.tb) to both adults and children. Children infected with TB have a higher risk of developing severe disease than adults with TB. The purpose of this study was to determine if the antibiotic isoniazid (INH) prevented TB infection in infants born to HIV-infected mothers.
To evaluate the safety and efficacy of tigecycline in the treatment of subjects with selected serious infections caused by resistant gram-negative bacteria, eg, Acinetobacter baumannii, Enterobacter species, Klebsiella pneumoniae or other resistant gram-negative pathogens, for whom antibiotics have failed or who cannot tolerate other appropriate antimicrobial therapies. The primary efficacy endpoint will be the clinical response.
To evaluate the safety and efficacy of tigecycline in the treatment of selected serious infections caused by VRE. The primary efficacy endpoint will be the clinical response for all subjects.
Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (also known as tenofovir DF or Viread) is used with other anti-HIV drugs to treat HIV infection. Taking tenofovir DF every day may also prevent HIV infection. This study will determine if taking a tenofovir DF tablet every day is safe and effective in preventing HIV infection. Participants in the study will be sex workers in Phnom Penh, Cambodia.
Serious infections caused by resistant bacteria are becoming more of a medical problem throughout the world. This study will measure how well TD-6424 (Telavancin) can control infections and whether the drug is safe to give to patients.
