NCT ID: NCT01142882 Recruiting - HIV Infections Clinical Trials

Comparative Effectiveness of Web-based Versus Traditional Adolescent HIV Prevention

Start date: February 2010
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This study will evaluate the comparative effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of a customized, interactive web-based HIV, sexually transmitted infections (STI) and hepatitis prevention intervention as compared to a traditional, educator-delivered prevention intervention. Both interventions will be offered to youth enrolled in outpatient, community-based substance abuse treatment at our collaborating treatment facilities. Outcomes to be measured include accurate HIV/disease prevention knowledge, intentions to engage in safer sex, actual HIV risk behavior, attitudes toward safer sex and self-reported substance use. The web-delivered intervention under evaluation has the potential to deliver evidence-based content at low cost without increasing demands on treatment staff time or training needs.

NCT ID: NCT01136850 Completed - Anaemia Clinical Trials

Intermittent Preventive Treatment With Azithromycin-containing Regimens in Pregnant Women in Papua New Guinea

IPTp in PNG
Start date: November 2009
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to determine whether repeated courses of sulphadoxine-pyrimethamine (SP) in combination with azithromycin given at Antenatal Clinic, leads to lower rates of low birth weight deliveries (<2.5 kg) among Papua New Guinean women, than the current standard treatment of SP and chloroquine.

NCT ID: NCT01060839 Completed - Clinical trials for Sexually Transmitted Infections

Evaluation of Counseling for Partner Notification

PN
Start date: April 2006
Phase: Phase 1/Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

- In the formative stage of the project, we have investigated through qualitative and quantitative studies to identify a potential intervention to promote partner referral for sexually transmitted patients in Bangladesh. - We conducted a quasi-randomised trial to evaluate if single session counseling is effective in improving partner referral for patients with sexually transmitted infection.

NCT ID: NCT01056536 Completed - Clinical trials for Sexually Transmitted Infections

Brief Intervention and/or Distribution of Free Condoms for Travelers

Start date: January 2006
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The objective of this study is to assess the impact of a structured intervention and/or free distribution of condoms during the pre-travel consultation on sexual risk behavior of young persons traveling alone.

NCT ID: NCT01043081 Completed - HIV Infections Clinical Trials

Sexually Transmitted Infections Among African American Women Who Have Sex With Women

WSW
Start date: February 2009
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

The purpose of this study is to determine the rates of sexually transmitted infections (STI) among a group of African American women who have sex with women (AA WSW). The first study hypothesis is that AA WSW are at risk for acquiring and transmitting STI, including the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). The second study hypothesis is that AA WSW participate in multiple high-risk sexual activities that may facilitate transmission of STIs, including HIV.

NCT ID: NCT00849823 Completed - HIV Infections Clinical Trials

HIV Prevention Program for African American Teen Males

Start date: February 2009
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to test if sexual health interventions can reduce the incidence of STIs among African American teens (15 to 21 years old). By doing this study, we hope to help African American teens improve their condom use skills and encourage them to use condoms more frequently. If the number of STIs in this population can be decreased, the health of African American teen males will greatly improve. We also believe that sexual partners (typically African American teen females) will also benefit.

NCT ID: NCT00713999 Completed - Clinical trials for Sexually Transmitted Infections

Urogenital Schistosomiasis and Sexually Transmitted Infections in Madagascar

FGS/MGS/STI
Start date: August 2001
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

A cross-sectional study of urogenital schistosomiasis and sexually transmitted infections (STI) prevalence and associated morbidity in a rural community in Madagascar. Clearance of infections and resolution of morbidity were subsequently studied in two phases following systematic anti-STI and anti-schistosoma treatment, respectively.

NCT ID: NCT00670163 Completed - HIV Infections Clinical Trials

Effectiveness of Community-Level Behavioral and Biomedical Interventions for Reducing HIV/STIs in Men in Peru

Start date: April 2008
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This study will evaluate the effectiveness of community-level behavioral and biomedical interventions, each alone and combined, in reducing sexual risk behavior and HIV/sexually transmitted infections in Peruvian men who have sex with men.

NCT ID: NCT00554567 Completed - HIV Infections Clinical Trials

Utilization of HIV Clinical Services in Rural India

Start date: January 2007
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

This community-based clinical trial based in two districts of rural Maharashtra, India compares utilization of an intervention model of "fully-decentralized," or rural primary clinic-based, HIV testing and care services, with a control model of the Indian government's partially-decentralized HIV services, offering rural referral clinic testing and urban-based HIV care.

NCT ID: NCT00469547 Completed - Clinical trials for Sexually Transmitted Infections

62% & 15% Ethanol in Emollient Gel as Topical Male Microbicides

Start date: November 2007
Phase: Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to look at the safety and acceptance of using a microbicide (product that kills germs) gel to clean the genital area. Microbicide gel is used by hospital workers to clean their hands to kill germs. Researchers hope to use information from this study to conduct a larger study to determine if the microbicidal gel protects men against sexually transmitted infections, including HIV. Thirty healthy uncircumcised Kenyan men, 18 years and older, working in the fishing industry in Kisumu will be recruited. Participants will complete a questionnaire about their background and sexual practices. A researcher will conduct a detailed examination of the genital area with a magnifying glass. A blood and urine sample will be collected to test for infection. Each participant will use both the microbicidal gel and a placebo (contains no active ingredient) gel at different times during the study, and the results will be compared. Volunteers will participate up to 8 weeks.
