Filter by:Approximately 60 subjects will be enrolled in order to have approximately 20 adult subjects and 20 pediatric subjects treated with subcutaneously administered Immune Globulin Subcutaneous (Human), 20% Caprylate/Chromatography Purified (IGSC 20%) who complete the entire study. This study will include 3 study stages: Screening/Previous Regimen Phase, IGSC 20% Treatment Stage 1 (13 IGSC 20% weekly doses), and IGSC 20% Treatment Stage 2 (39 IGSC 20% weekly doses). A total of 52 doses of IGSC 20% will be administered with a final follow-up visit 1 week after the last dose at Week 53. Subjects/caregivers will be trained on self-administration of IGSC 20% by the clinical site personnel.
A phase I absolute bioavailability study of BMS-626529 following oral and intravenous dosing
Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is a major global health concern which has resulted in an estimated 39 million deaths world-wide. Although it is now a treatable medical condition there is still avoidable morbidity and mortality associated with HIV infection in the UK. Late diagnosis (CD4 count of <350 cells/mm3 or AIDS-defining illness irrespective of CD4 count) is associated with increased morbidity and mortality, increased risk of transmission, impaired response to antiretroviral therapy and increased healthcare costs. In Grampian, 49% of patients were diagnosed late between 1984 and 2011. Therefore, the aim of the study is to determine the factors associated with late HIV diagnosis in Grampian between 2009 and 2014 to ascertain whether diagnoses could have been made earlier. The study constitutes a secondary data analysis. Individuals newly diagnosed with HIV between January 2009 and December 2014 were identified from a Health Protection Scotland (HPS) database. The majority of outcome data were extracted from the existing HPS database. Missing data were collected via a retrospective review of patient case-notes, laboratory reports and an electronic patient management system. Patients were classified as early or late diagnosis and comparisons were made between the groups using statistical tests. The study sought to provide a basis for recommendations for improvement of information and services to facilitate earlier HIV diagnosis in Grampian.
Cabotegravir is being developed for the treatment of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) 1 infection. Specifically, it is being developed as a component of a 2-drug maintenance regimen (post-induction of viral suppression) that includes rilpivirine. Rilpivirine requires food for optimal absorption; therefore the recommended intake of cabotegravir in the planned Phase 3 treatment studies is with food regardless of fat or calorie content, when administered along with rilpivirine. This is a single-center, randomized, open-label, two-way crossover study in healthy adult subjects to assess the effect of a high fat meal on the single dose pharmacokinetics of CAB 30 mg. Approximately, 24 subjects will be enrolled in the study and will be screened for 30 days. Twelve subjects with at least 10 hours of fasting will be randomized to receive a single dose of cabotegravir orally (Schedule 'A'). The remaining 12 subjects will receive a single dose of cabotegravir orally along with high fat meal (Schedule 'B'). After 15 days, the subjects earlier undergoing 'Schedule A' will be switched to 'Schedule B' and those undergoing 'Schedule B' will undergo 'Schedule A'. All the subjects will be followed up to 30 days from the day of receiving first dose of cabotegravir to evaluate the effect of a high fat meal on the pharmacokinetics of cabotegravir.
GSK2838232 is a Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) maturation inhibitor being developed for the treatment of HIV in combination with other antiretroviral therapy (ART). The primary objectives of this study are to investigate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of single and repeat doses of GSK2838232. This study will be a double-blind, placebo-controlled, single and repeat dose escalation study. This study will be conducted in two Parts: single escalating doses (Part 1A and 1B), and repeated escalating once daily (QD) doses for 11 days (Part 2) of GSK2838232 co-dosed with RTV. During Part 1A, single doses of GSK2838232 (as of active pharmaceutical ingredient-powder in bottle [API PiB]) 50 milligrams (mg), 100mg and 200mg will be administered with RTV. Part 1B will evaluate the relative bioavailability of single doses of crystalline active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) Immediate Release Tablet (IR) tablets versus API PiB as reference, administered with RTV. In Part 2, multiple doses of GSK2838232 will be co-administered with RTV 100mg QD for 11 days as sequential dose cohorts. Maximum duration of study participation will be approximately 10 weeks.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, efficacy and Pharmacokinetics of Immune Globulin Intravenous (Human) GC5107 in subjects with Primary Humoral Immunodeficiency (PHID).
Needle-related procedures are the most important source of pain and anxiety in pediatric patients. Consequently, needle-phobia and anxiety are common in children with auto-immune disease and immune deficiency and may be barriers to adherence in treatment. The use of a non-pharmacological and easy-to-use approach, like the Buzzy® device, could be an alternative or adjuvant for the management of procedural pain and anxiety of these children during needle-related procedures. This study aims to determine the feasibility, acceptability and satisfaction of the Buzzy® device for procedural pain and anxiety relief of immunology-rheumatology patients undergoing needle-related procedures. The investigators will compare the Buzzy® device with an anaesthetic cream (Maxilene®) during needle-related procedures. The investigators also plan to assess feasibility outcomes and satisfaction of the nurses and the children with the use of the Buzzy® device. This pilot study should refine or modify the research methodology and improve the intervention being piloted before it's efficacy will be verified within a larger scale-study. The investigators strongly believe that the use of the Buzzy® device in immunology rheumatology department could optimise procedural pain and anxiety management. Since most of the treatments administered for auto-immune diseases and immune deficiency diseases are through subcutaneous or intramuscular injections, pain and anxiety management using non-pharmacological and/or pharmacological interventions should be prioritized. Given this knowledge, the investigators feel that this pilot study has the potential to contribute to pain and anxiety management of children undergoing needle-related procedures.
This randomized, multi-center, Phase IV, comparative study will assess the efficacy and safety of combined peg-interferon alpha-2a (Peg-IFN-Alpha-2A) and ribavirin therapy for 48 or 72 weeks of treatment and 24 weeks of follow-up in participants with Genotype 1 chronic hepatitis C (CHC), co-infected with human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1).
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the bioequivalence between Fixed-dose Combination (FDC) tablet formulation of Dolutegravir (DTG) 50 milligrams (mg) and Rilpivirine (RPV) 25 mg versus co-administration of the separate tablet formulations of DTG 50 mg plus RPV 25 mg, in the fed state. This pivotal bioequivalence study, is to serve as a pharmacokinetic (PK) bridge to the ongoing Phase 3 trials with the separate agents. This study will be conducted under fed conditions to appropriately mimic the conditions in the Phase 3 trials. This is a single-center, randomized, open-label, 2-period, single-dose, crossover study. A minimum of 86 healthy adult subjects will be randomized such that a minimum of approximately 82 evaluable subjects complete the study. The total duration of participation of a subject in this study will be approximately 8 weeks which includes a screening visit within 30 days prior to the first dose of study drug, two treatment periods each with a single dose of study drug and a follow-up visit within 12-17 days after the last dose of study drug. There will be a washout of at least 21 days between each dose of study drug. A blinded (for treatment) review of DTG and RPV plasma concentration data for approximately the first 40 subjects will be conducted. If the within-subject coefficients of variation (CVw%) for either DTG or RPV maximal drug concentration (Cmax) values are >=31%; a sample size re-estimation will be employed and additional subjects (beyond the 86 planned) will be randomized for treatment in the study. Following the re-estimation, it is possible that up to approximately 154 healthy adult subjects (68 new subjects in addition to the planned 86 subjects above) will be randomized such that a maximum of approximately 146 evaluable subjects could complete the study.
