NCT ID: NCT05044962 Recruiting - HIV Infections Clinical Trials

Kuwa Free! - Live Free!

Start date: November 26, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The study investigators are conducting foundational pharmacokinetic (PK) and qualitative studies, among 15-24 years old (inclusive) adolescent girls and young women living with HIV (AGYWLHIV) already on oral antiretroviral therapy (ART) and virally suppressed, leading up to a hybrid type I effectiveness-implementation trial randomizing individual AGYWLHIV to receive long-acting (LA) injectable cabotegravir/rilpivirine vs. standard of care within one of Kenya's largest HIV treatment programs. The PK and qualitative studies will investigate potential issues arising from co-delivery and guide delivery of the effectiveness-implementation trial. The PK and qualitative studies will largely be conducted with a sentinel cohort of AGYWLHIV. Learning from this early LA ART use, the investigators will refine the procedures in the LA ART hybrid trial.

NCT ID: NCT05040282 Completed - Contraception Clinical Trials

The Amenorrhea With Etonogestrel Implant

Start date: October 1, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The etonogestrel subdermal implant has been available worldwide for more than 15 years. The action of etonogestrel subdermal implant is principal via suppression of ovulation, but it also has effects on cervical mucus and in some women induces suppression of endometrial proliferation. Several studies have confirmed its high efficacy and convenience. The uterine bleeding problems and in particular irregular bleeding and amenorrhea are major side effects of etonogestrel subdermal implant. A considerable number of patients request early removal due to bleeding changes. Amenorrhea occurs in about 22% in etonogestrel subdermal implant users. Despite the presence of many studies that reported the prevalence of etonogestrel subdermal implant-associated bleeding, little is known about the predictive factors affecting menstrual bleeding patterns especially amenorrhea after etonogestrel subdermal implant insertion. These predictive factors should be provided prior to the etonogestrel subdermal implant insertion which may improve acceptance and continuation of etonogestrel subdermal implant.

NCT ID: NCT05024604 Recruiting - Contraception Clinical Trials

Hysteroscopic Findings in Women Using Progesterone Only Pills (Minipills)

Start date: September 1, 2021
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Hysteroscopic findings in women using progesterone only pills (minipills) :A Prospective cohort study.

NCT ID: NCT05002738 Completed - Contraception Clinical Trials

Desogestrel-containing COCP Pharmacokinetic Validation Study

Start date: September 10, 2021
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

This study aims to validate prior pharmacokinetic research with combined oral contraceptive pill users that supports utilizing a 24-hour trough concentration as an accurate proxy for the intensive pharmacokinetic parameter of area under the curve (gold standard pharmacokinetics). The original pharmacokinetic studies were performed with a levonorgestrel-containing oral contraceptive pill and we aim to duplicate those findings with a desogestrel-containing oral contraceptive pill.

NCT ID: NCT04997499 Enrolling by invitation - Contraception Clinical Trials

Adolescent Subcutaneous (SQ) Injection Video Validation

Start date: September 29, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This is a study to determine if a video that utilizes a peer to teach self administration of subcutaneous depot medroxyprogesterone is both effective and well accepted by adolescent patients who are already receiving ongoing treatment with depot medroxyprogesterone by a medical provider via an inter muscular injection. Self administration can be done at home and therefore offers an alternative to traveling to a medical office.

NCT ID: NCT04965116 Completed - Contraception Clinical Trials

Progestin-Only Pill Use and Breastfeeding Study

Start date: October 25, 2021
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

This study will assess the impact of early initiation (less than one week postpartum) and delayed initiation (4 weeks postpartum) of two types of progestin-only contraceptive pills (POPs) on maternal, breastmilk, and infant outcomes.

NCT ID: NCT04939012 Recruiting - Pregnancy Related Clinical Trials

Implementation of a Patient-centered, Reproductive Planning Decision Support Tool (MyPath) Among Women With Substance Use Disorder in the Immediate Postpartum Period

IMPACT
Start date: October 11, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This is a study to determine the effect of a novel patient-centered, reproductive planning decision support tool developed by the research team called MyPath on postpartum contraceptive decision-making among women with SUDs.

NCT ID: NCT04919395 Terminated - Contraception Clinical Trials

Preliminary Evaluation of a "Clip" Device for Contraceptive Implant Removal

Start date: June 16, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This trial is being completed to understand how the study "Clip" device works when assisting clinicians with Nexplanon removals. The study device clips to the skin to hold the implant still and raise the tip of the implant during removal. The study device may improve the process for removing under arm implants by decreasing procedure time and improving the ease and safety of the procedure. The results from this study will help the researchers understand whether the study device has the potential to simplify the removal procedure and make this form of birth control safer for patients.

NCT ID: NCT04915885 Withdrawn - Contraception Clinical Trials

Strengthening Contraceptive Counseling in Pakistan

Start date: January 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

High-quality contraceptive counseling can strengthen global efforts to reduce the unmet need for and suboptimal use of modern contraceptives. This study aims to identify a package of contraceptive counseling interventions designed to strengthen existing contraceptive services and determine its effectiveness in increasing clients' level of decision-making autonomy and meeting their contraceptive needs.

NCT ID: NCT04910711 Active, not recruiting - Contraception Clinical Trials

Investigating the Interaction Between Two Long-acting Reversible Methods of Contraception and Dolutegravir, a Treatment for HIV

CODA
Start date: October 21, 2021
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

It is important to make sure that women have access to effective methods of contraception to prevent pregnancy so that they can make choices about when and if they will have their first or next child. Some of the most effective methods of contraception are the long-acting, reversible methods of contraception (LARCS), including the contraceptive implant and the contraceptive injection. In areas of the world where there are high numbers of people living with HIV, providing contraception to women is sometimes complicated, as there are known to be interactions between some of the medications that treat HIV and some hormonal methods of contraception. One medication to treat HIV, dolutegravir, is now one of the first-line treatments for HIV in Botswana, and more and more women of childbearing age are taking dolutegravir to treat HIV. At the moment, there is limited information on whether or not there are interactions between dolutegravir (the HIV medication) and the contraceptive implant or the contraceptive injection, two commonly used methods of contraception in Botswana. The main purpose of this study is to find out if women using contraception and also taking dolutegravir have lower levels of contraceptive hormone in their blood compared to women taking no HIV treatment. The study hypothesis is that there is no interaction between dolutegravir and the contraceptive implant or injection. In this study, levels of hormone from the injection or the implant will be measured in women living with HIV who take dolutegravir and compared to hormone levels in women who do not have HIV and who have never taken any medications to treat HIV. Women will be counselled about all of the possible methods of contraception (including the pill, the injection, the implant and the copper intrauterine device (or coil/loop)) that are available and will be empowered to make their own decision about the method of contraception they feel will be best for them. Women who choose the implant or the injection will be invited to enrol in the study; and will be categorised into one of four groups, based on whether or not they are living with HIV and taking dolutegravir. At several time points, women will have blood tests to check the level of hormone from the implant or the injection, over a course of 12 weeks for women starting the injection and 24 weeks for women starting the implant. Women will also be asked to complete a short questionnaire about any side effects from the contraception including changes to bleeding patterns. At the end of the 12 weeks (for women starting the injection) or 24 weeks (for women starting the implant), the results from these blood samples will be analysed to see how the levels of the hormone in their blood changed over time. The study will also look at whether the levels of dolutegravir (the HIV medication) changed over time. These results will be compared between women living with HIV taking dolutegravir and women without HIV who have never taken dolutegravir to see whether there is any interaction between dolutegravir and the hormonal contraceptive implant or contraceptive injection.
