Filter by:This study is a Phase 2b/3 multi-center extension study designed to evaluate the long term antiviral activity, safety, and tolerability of the strategy of continuing PRO 140 350mg, 525mg, or 700mg SC monotherapy to maintain viral suppression after initial 48 weeks in virologically suppressed subjects. Consenting subjects will continue weekly PRO 140 350mg, 525mg, or 700mg monotherapy during the Treatment Extension Phase with the one week overlap of existing retroviral regimen and PRO 140 350mg, 525mg, or 700 mg at the end of the treatment in subjects who do not experience virologic failure.
BACKGROUND: Current Kenya National Anti-retroviral (ARV) Guidelines and World Health Organization (WHO) Guidelines recommend first-line therapy of tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF), lamivudine (3TC) and dolutegravir (DTG) for adult people living with HIV (PLHIV). This regimen has limitations, particularly for the aging PLHIV who are more likely to have pre-existing comorbidities and higher risk of developing comorbidities, including osteopenia, osteoporosis, and renal insufficiency. Abacavir, the preferred alternative nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NRTI) in Kenya, is associated with increased cardiovascular risk that also limits its use in elderly populations. B/F/TAF is highly efficacious, well tolerated, co-formulated in a small pill, and does not have the same bone, renal or cardiovascular risks associated with currently recommended regimens in Kenya. We are not aware of any clinical trial to date that has been fully powered to compare ARV regimens for the increasing population of elderly PLHIV. BROAD OBJECTIVE: We will compare the efficacy, safety, and impact on bone mineral density of switching to B/F/TAF to that of remaining on current ARV regimen in a population of elderly patients (60 years old or greater) with no prior confirmed treatment failure in Kenya.
The main objective of the study is to evaluate the diffusion of bictegravir and associated backbone (tenofovir alafenamide and emtricitabine) in HIV-1 chronic patients in the main putative reservoirs, namely inguinal lymph nodes, rectal, fat tissues and sperm.
The RECOVER study is a self-controlled case series to evaluate whether the addition of Fostemsavir (Rukobia) to a stable HIV regimen in virologically suppressed patients living with HIV who never experience optimal CD4 T-cell count recovery can result in meaningful increases in different immunologic parameters such as CD4 T-cell count, CD4 T-cell percentage and CD4/CD8 ratio
Combination antiretroviral therapy (cART) blocks intracellular human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) replication in CD4+ T-lymphocytes, but fails to eliminate latent HIV infected CD4+ T-lymphocytes. About 7 (range <1-100) in 106 of these cells are latently infected and can cause reactivation of proviral HIV when cART is stopped. These latently infected cells form the reservoir and must be targeted in order to cure HIV. We would like to further investigate this reservoir and assess potential interventions to eradicate it. One promising option is to further study the influence of HIV latency disruptors (latency reversing agents, LRA) on the HIV infected reservoir. These agents are used in shock and kill strategies that disrupt latency by LRA followed by the selective (induced) killing of the reservoir cell due to viro-pathogenic effects. For accurate assessment of the reservoir and potential cure strategies, including the impact of LRA on the reservoir, a large reservoir and sufficient cells for analysis are desirable. Our understanding on the reservoir comes from in vitro lymphocyte models and early ex vivo studies. Additional studies of patients with different clinical phenotypes including untreated versus treated versus the rare individuals that control HIV spontaneously are increasingly relevant to the field. Especially this last category represent biological examples of viral control without cART and are useful to study the factors that set them apart from those that need treatment for their HIV. This study aims to deepen our understanding of the HIV reservoir and cure strategies, foremost, shock and kill strategies. We will do this by setting up a durable ex vivo platform for HIV reservoir and cure studies of which the samples can be used for hypothesis generation for in-vivo studies.

Multicenter, open-label, randomized, active control study to evaluate efficacy and safety of switching to VM-1500A-LAI + 2NRTIs from the 1st line standard of care therapy for 48 weeks. The 1st part of the study will select one of 2 dose cohorts: 600mg or 900mg.
To assess the safety and tolerability of Elsulfavirine following administration of single oral ascending doses in HIV-negative, healthy subjects.
Open labelled, randomized study to evaluate the efficacy, safety and dose selection of VM-1500A-LAI drug in HIV-infected patients transferred from previous stable therapy (NNRTI + 2NRTI), including ELPIDA®.
The purpose of this pharmacokinetic (PK) trial is to evaluate whether the ENG implant, a long-acting birth control method, is tolerable and effective for adults with HIV who are taking long-acting cabotegravir (CAB-LA) and long-acting rilpivirine (RPV-LA). Access to safe and effective birth control for adults with HIV is important because it may result in fewer infants exposed to HIV in the womb or born with HIV. Researchers believe that people of childbearing potential need access to birth control options that do not need to be negotiated with a partner.
The LATA trial will find out if taking a long-acting injectable form of HIV medicines, called cabotegravir and rilpivirine, every 2 month works as well as taking tablet HIV medicines every day in young people aged 12-19 years of age. The trial is organised by an international group of researchers from Europe and Africa, and will include 460 young people, from Kenya, South Africa, Uganda and Zimbabwe.
