Active clinical trials for "Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome"

This study investigates the safety, tolerability and PKs of GSK2838232 with and without Ritonavir, and to evaluate different formulations of GSK2838232 in healthy subjects. This study will evaluate higher single and RTV boosted doses to support continued clinical development of GSK2838232 at clinically relevant doses, and subsequently in those infected with HIV in a dose ranging phase 2 study. The study is conducted in 2 parts: Part A and Part B, study Part A and Part B may be conducted in parallel. Approximately 20 healthy subjects will be enrolled into the study, 8 in Part A and 12 in Part B. Part A is a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, 4-period, single dose escalation design. Subjects will be randomized 3:1 to receive GSK2838232 or placebo. Subjects randomized to placebo will receive placebo in all four periods. Following completion of Period 2 PK assessments at 96hr post-dose, subjects will begin daily dosing of RTV 100mg for a total of 26 days. Part B is a randomized, open-label, unbalanced, 3-period, cross-over design; subjects will be randomized 1:1 to each sequence. The relative bioavailability of single 100mg doses of powder in a bottle (PIB) active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) of GSK2838232 versus PIB spray-dried dispersion (SDD) will be assessed. A single dose of GSK2838232 will co-administered on the 10th day of RTV dosing; RTV dosing will continue for an additional 4 days (total of 14 days). Subjects will have a screening visit within 30 days prior to first dose and a follow-up visit 7-14 days after the last dose.

To show the feasibility of liver transplantation in HCV-HIV coinfected patients. To study the two-year survival after transplantation, the interaction between HCV and HIV after transplantation, the influence of HIV on HCV recurrence after transplantation, the interaction between immunosuppressive and antiretroviral drugs in particular anti-proteases, immunological follow-up and quality of life of these patients

The purpose of this study is to contribute evidence towards the potential to improve cognition in HIV+ individuals experiencing cognitive decline through personalized change in antiretroviral (ARV) medication. To that end, following a comprehensive evaluation to identify confounding clinical conditions, study participants will undergo a lumbar puncture to: (i) measure viral load (at 2 copies/ml); (ii) identify Cerebrospinal Fluid (CSF) genotype and tropism; and (iii) measure concentration of antiretroviral agents. When indicated from the CSF analysis, a personalized change in ARV will be implemented. Cognition will be measured in all at study entry and 6 months later.

The purpose of the study is to see if Z-100 (an investigational drug) treatment is safe in HIV patients who have never received treatment for their HIV, who have not been taking highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) for at least 8 weeks, or who have been stable on their current first or second HAART regimen for at least 12 weeks.

In Mexico City, the main cause of mortality among people living with HIV (PLHIV) continues to be opportunistic infections (OIs). Early detection of OIs allows their timely treatment and improves their prognosis. The use of rapid diagnostic tests (RDT) based on antigens of the most frequent causative agents of OIs allows adequate screening of these patients and facilitates decision making at the point of care. Unfortunately, these studies are not widely available in the different PLHIV care centers in the CDMX. We will conduct an open-label, non-inferiority uncontrolled clinical trial to investigate the diagnostic performance of urinary lipoarabinomannan, urinary Histoplasma antigen and serum Cryptococcus antigen in patients presenting for care with advanced HIV in CDMX, supported by rapid cluster of differentiation 4 (CD4) testing with lateral flow technology. Four referral hospitals will participate over 12 months. All patients with diagnosed HIV disease and suspected advanced disease presenting for care at participating centers will be included in the study. An inventory of approximately 1000 RDT will be obtained and distributed among the participating sites. A study coordinator will be hired and will visit each site once a week to collect the study variables and follow up on the included patients. The primary outcome of the study will be the percentage of patients with advanced disease who present with diagnoses made by RDT compared to historical controls of patients diagnosed with OI in 2022 at participating centers by conventional methods. Secondary outcomes will be time to initiation of antiretroviral therapy (ART), time to initiation of OI treatment, and 30-day mortality after HIV diagnosis.

The scientific breakthrough related to Undetectable (viral load) = Untransmissible (virus) has had a major impact on motivation to take up and adhere to antiretroviral therapy among people living with HIV all over the world. The aim of the study is to work with MoHCC and other stakeholders to explore whether routine VL testing using DBS can provide sufficiently robust evidence of 'undetectability' to support introduction of U=U messaging in ALHIV. The study will provide scientific evidence on whether routine VL testing using DBS as available in LIC can provide sufficiently robust evidence of 'undetectability' and on the variability of an individual's virological response over 12 months. It will provide contextually orientated evidence to inform U=U messaging which has the potential to change the motivation of ALHIV to engage with their treatment and care.It will also explore responsible ways to disseminate this message to ALHIV living in Zimbabwe, and across the Southern African region.

To test the hypothesis that AGT103-T cells therapy will allow HIV positive individual to reduce, modify or eliminate antiretroviral therapy.

The objective of this clinical trial is to determine whether long-term oral dosage of ribavirin delays development of symptomatic HIV disease in HIV antibody positive subjects who are completely asymptomatic (CDC classification group II), who have only the lymphadenopathy syndrome (CDC classification group III), or who have clinical symptoms but not severe HIV disease as defined by CDC classification, and whether the dosage regimen is safe and tolerable in these subjects.

The principal objective is to evaluate the antiviral efficacy of 48 weeks treatment with the two-drugs combination dolutegravir(Tivicay®) and lamivudine(TEpivir®) in HIV-1 infected patients virologically suppressed with triple HAART.

This is an prospective open label pilot study conducted over 32 weeks. A total of 25 eligible participants who are infected with HCV and HIV will be recruited from 2 Canadian HIV Trials Network (CTN) sites (Ottawa Hospital Research Institute and McGill University Health Centre) This study is investigating the effectiveness of a combination of Elvitegravir/Cobicistat/Emtricitabine/ Tenofovir Alafenamide Single Tablet Regimen (E/C/F/TAF STR) for HIV treatment and Harvoni for HCV treatment. This study will assess the effect that the study drug has on the metabolism of sugar, the changes in fat in the bloodstream, and other metabolic changes. Metabolism is the process your body uses to get or make energy from the food you eat. This study may provide information on the impact of liver fibrosis (scarring of liver tissues) on metabolic changes before, during and after HCV antiviral therapy. Drug-drug interactions (DDI) between E/C/F/TAF and LPV-SOF have been well evaluated and no clinically significant interactions have been identified. A switch to E/C/F/TAF in the context of LPV-SOF HCV antiviral treatment preparation may be particularly beneficial because of its: favorable side effect profile once daily STR formulation known DDI profile with LPV-SOF neutral effect on liver fibrosis improved kidney and bone safety profile with the use of TAF Conduct of this study is justified as it: Assesses a minimal pill count and dosing frequency strategy of co-treatment of HIV and HCV using well tolerated medications with an excellent safety profile and known DDI profile. Provides additional safety data for TAF in the HIV-HCV co-infected population. Quantifies adherence and identifies obstacles to full adherence in this population. There is a paucity of data related to DAA adherence in licensing studies. Provides real-world safety and efficacy data to support the public funding for LPV-SOF DAA therapy in HIV-HCV co-infected populations. Provides preliminary data on the immunologic and metabolic consequences of HCV clearance in HIV-HCV co-infection As a pilot study, the information gathered will inform the feasibility of future clinical trials evaluating novel treatment strategies for HIV-HCV co-infected patients.
