Filter by:This is a randomized, active-controlled, double-blind clinical study designed to evaluate the antiretroviral activity, safety, and tolerability of doravirine/islatravir (DOR/ISL [MK-8591A]) in treatment-naïve participants with human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection. It is hypothesized that DOR/ISL is non-inferior to bictegravir/emtricitabine/tenofovir alafenamide (BIC/FTC/TAF) as assessed by the percentage of participants with HIV-1 ribonucleic acid (RNA) <50 copies/mL at Week 48.
In summary, there is a compelling rationale for investigating venetoclax as an intervention to sensitise virus-expressing cells to apoptosis and thereby reduce the size of the latent HIV reservoir. While this concept may ultimately need to be tested in the setting of concomitant latency reversal, the investigators propose to initially establish the safety of venetoclax in PLWH on ART. The investigators will use this study to also investigate effects of venetoclax monotherapy on proapoptotic pathways, immune effector function and HIV persistence in PLWH on ART and through these studies establish the rationale for subsequent studies testing venetoclax in combination with an LRA.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK), safety, tolerability, and acceptability of a long-acting injectable Cabotegravir and Rilpivirine in Virologically Suppressed Children Living with HIV-1, Two to Less Than 12 Years of Age
The goal of this observational study is to understand patterns of HIV transmission in a high-prevalence area in Ethiopia, and to compare viral genetic information in people with HIV who are newly diagnosed and have not been exposed to antiretroviral therapy with persons receiving antiretroviral therapy without viral suppression. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Do people with HIV who fail to achieve viral suppression contribute to the ongoing spread of HIV in Ethiopia, or does HIV transmission mainly occur between persons with no exposure to such therapy? - Are viruses with drug-resistance mutations transmitted onwards from people with HIV receiving antiretroviral therapy who fail to achieve viral suppression? * Which factors are involved in treatment failure and emergence of drug-resistant viruses longitudinally? Participants will be enrolled with regard to history of antiretroviral therapy exposure (newly diagnosed/treatment-naïve vs. treatment-experienced with lack of viral suppression), using persons on antiretroviral therapy with viral suppression for control. We will compare the following outcomes between these groups: - Clustering of viral genetic sequences at inclusion (implying linked transmission) - Prevalence of drug-resistance-associated mutations at inclusion - Viral suppression and emergence of drug-resistance mutations during follow-up
This is a prospective, multi-center, longitudinal, mother-infant pair, therapeutic drug monitoring study. The aim of this study is to determine concentrations of antiretroviral drugs in plasma and breastmilk in people living with HIV who chose to breastfeed while using antiretrovirals. At a planned hospital visit an extra maternal blood sample (1 to 2 per visit) and extra infant blood sample (1 per visit) will be collected, as well as a breastmilk sample (1 to 2 per visit). Ideally, sample collection will take place at least during the 1, 3 and 6 month post partum follow up visit. Measured concentrations will be used to calculate milk to plasma ratios, relative and absolute infant dosages.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether intramuscular (IM) vaccination with C62-M4 or C1C62-M3M4 in persons with HIV-1 (PWH) on suppressive antiretroviral therapy (ART) will be safe and increase HIV-1-specific T cell responses targeting conserved regions of HIV-1.
Background: People with HIV usually take a combination of 2 or more anti-HIV drugs daily to help manage their infection. Sometimes, however, HIV becomes resistant to these drugs, and the infection cannot be treated. Untreated HIV infection can make people more vulnerable to other infections as well as some cancers. Better treatments are needed for people with drug-resistant HIV. Objective: To see if a study drug (UB-421) is effective in people with drug-resistant HIV. Eligibility: People aged 18 years and older with HIV that is resistant to anti-HIV drugs. Design: Participants will be in the study for 35 weeks. Participants will have separate screening and baseline visits within 2 months of each other. They will have a physical exam with blood and urine tests both times. On the second visit, they will undergo apheresis: Blood will be drawn from a needle in one arm. The blood will pass through a machine that separates out the white blood cells. The remaining blood will be given back through a second needle in the other arm. Participants will begin receiving the study drug 1 week after their baseline visit. UB-421 is given through a tube attached to a needle placed in a vein in the arm. They will return for UB-421 treatments every week for 26 weeks. Each visit will take 3 to 6 hours. Participants will have 2 follow-up visits 4 and 8 weeks after their last treatment with UB-421. Apheresis will be repeated at 1 of these visits.
IMPALA is a randomized, open-label, multicenter, interventional study of 540 virologically suppressed HIV-1 infected adults who have a history of sub-optimal adherence to daily oral ART and/or engagement in HIV care. The study will seek to demonstrate non-inferior antiviral effectiveness of the 2-monthly long-acting injectable combination of cabotegravir/rilpivirine as compared to continuation of first line oral antiretroviral therapy.
Purpose: The purpose of the project is to determine oral pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) preference among 14-24-year-old adolescent girls and young women (AGYW) at risk of HIV infection and to evaluate a peer support intervention aimed at improving uptake of and adherence to oral PrEP. Main Study Aims: i) To determine oral PrEP preference among 14-24-year-old AGYW at risk of HIV infection in Kampala, Uganda . ii) To evaluate a peer support intervention aimed at improving uptake of and adherence to oral pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP), the only currently available biomedical HIV prevention method in Uganda. Study Objectives: i. To determine oral PrEP preference among 14-24-year-old AGYW in Kampala, Uganda, and determine factors associated with preference for oral PrEP. ii. To evaluate the effect of a peer support intervention on uptake of and adherence to oral PrEP among 14-24-year-old AGYW at risk of HIV infection in Kampala, Uganda. iii. To evaluate the effect of a peer support intervention aimed at improving oral PrEP uptake and adherence, on sexual behavior and reproductive health outcomes among AGYW in Kampala, Uganda. iv. To explore AGYW perceptions and experiences of the peer support intervention aimed at improving oral PrEP uptake and adherence. Design Objective 1: A retrospective cohort study of data collected from January 2019 to December 2020. Objectives 2-4: An individually randomized controlled trial with 1:1 randomization in the intervention and control arms. Population: 14-24-year old AGYW at risk of HIV infection in Kampala. Control arm: Standard health worker counselling during clinic visits. Intervention arm: Standard health worker counselling and peer support groups over the weekend.
The goal of this clinical study is to learn more about the effects of switching to the study drugs, bictegravir (BIC) plus lenacapavir (LEN), versus current therapy (Phase 2) and BIC/LEN fixed-dose combination (FDC) versus current therapy (Phase 3) in people living with HIV (PWH).
