Active clinical trials for "Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome"

This study focuses on the integration of HIV and NCD screening and care. The investigators will conduct a randomized controlled trial examining the efficacy and cost-effectiveness of the intervention strategy in Kisarawe District, Tanzania, a rural area 40 KM southwest of Dar es Salaam. The study will match two similar HIV care and treatment centers (CTC) in the District, one of which will be randomized to receive the enhanced intervention which will integrate diabetes (DM) and hypertension (HTN) screening with the existing HIV testing program, and integrate care for DM and HTN into the HIV care program. Comparisons of the community HIV testing rates in the two communities, engagement in HIV care among those testing positive, and 24-month retention in HIV care will be assessed among a cohort of 107 newly enrolled patients per community. Specifically, the aims are to determine: Whether integrating DM and HTN screening with HIV testing will increase the uptake of community-level HIV testing. If integrating DM/HTN care with HIV care enhances engagement in HIV care. Whether integration of DM/HTN care with HIV care enhances retention in HIV care for those newly enrolled in HIV care. The cost-effectiveness of integrating NCD screening and care with HIV screening and care with regard to the incremental cost per HIV infected client engaged in HIV care, and cost per newly enrolled HIV client retained in HIV care over 24-months.

The purpose of this study is to compare the single-dose pharmacokinetics of rilpivirine (RPV) after intramuscular (IM) injection of rilpivirine long-acting parenteral formulation (RPV-LA) and 'aged' RPV-LA, in healthy adult participants.

A combined Phase Ib and IIa randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind study of VM-1500 in healthy subjects and in patients with HIV-1 infection that are antiretroviral therapy naïve.

The purpose of this study is to assess the pharmacokinetics of plasma lopinavir/ritonavir over a 12-hour dosing interval, following administration to male and female HIV-negative healthy volunteers of: Lopinavir/ritonavir 400/100 mg twice daily Lopinavir/ritonavir 200/150 mg twice daily Lopinavir/ritonavir 200/50 mg twice daily

The purpose of this study is to compare the levels of immune and inflammatory markers among HIV-1, HSV-2 co-infected adults achieving plasma HIV RNA suppression to <50 copies/mL, between those randomized to valacyclovir and placebo, over a twelve-week intervention period.

ING111762 is a 48 week, randomized, double-blind, active-controlled, multicenter, parallel group, non-inferiority study. The study will be conducted in at least 688 HIV-1 infected antiretroviral experienced, integrase-naïve subjects. Subjects will be randomized 1:1 to receive GSK1349572 50 mg once daily or raltegravir (RAL) 400 mg twice daily, each added to an investigator selected background regimen consisting of at least one fully active agent plus no more than one second single agent which may or may not be active. Antiviral activity, safety, pharmacokinetics (PK), and development of viral resistance will be evaluated.

This study will be a phase I, open label, two arm, fixed sequence crossover study to investigate the effect of rifampin and rifabutin on the steady state pharmacokinetics (PK) of GSK1349572 and the safety and tolerability of GSK1349572 and rifamycin co-administration. Subjects enrolled in Arm 1 will receive GSK1349572 50 mg once daily for 7 days, GSK1348572 50 mg twice daily for 7 days, and GSK1349572 50 mg twice daily in combination with rifampin 600 mg once daily for 14 days. Subjects in Arm 2 will receive GSK1349572 50 mg once daily for 7 days and GSK1349572 50 mg once daily in combination with rifabutin 300 mg once daily for 14 days. Serial PK sampling will be completed following the last dose of each treatment. Safety and tolerability will be assessed throughout the study through assessment of adverse events (AEs), and clinical laboratory tests. This study will be conducted at one center in the US with healthy adult male and female subjects.

This is a double-blind placebo-controlled study to evaluate the effect of Naltrexone (NTX) and counseling on highly active antiretroviral treatment (HAART) medication adherence in a cohort of HIV-infected patients who report heavy drinking, or meet criteria for alcohol abuse and/or dependence, and inadequate (< 95%) HAART adherence. All patients will receive a behavioral intervention, termed Medical Management/Medication Coaching or MM/MC. MM/MC incorporates the behavioral platform Medical Management (MM) from the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA)-funded COMBINE Study to reduce heavy alcohol use with Medication Coaching (MC), a manualized treatment designed to improve HAART medication adherence in HIV-infected patients with substance use disorders.

The purpose of this trial is to assess the non-inferior antiviral activity of GSK1349572 50 mg once daily versus RAL 400mg twice daily over 48 weeks; non-inferiority will also be tested at Week 96. Both GSK1349572 and RAL will be given in combination with fixed-dose dual NRTI therapy (ABC/3TC or TDF/FTC). This study will be conducted in HIV-1 infected ART-naïve adult subjects.

Specific Aim: To conduct a randomized, placebo-controlled trial of extended release-naltrexone (XR-NTX) among Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) infected prisoners meeting Diagnostic Statistical Manual IV (DSM-IV) criteria for opioid dependence who are transitioning from the structure of a correctional setting to the community. Hypotheses: i. XR-NTX will result in improved HIV clinical outcomes, including lower changes in HIV-1 RNA levels, higher CD4 counts and higher rates of retention in care. ii. XR-NTX will result in improved opioid treatment outcomes, including longer time to opioid relapse, lower addiction severity and lower craving for opioid. iii. XR-NTX will result in reduced drug- and sex-related HIV risk behaviors compared to the control group. iv. XR-NTX will result in decreased rates of reincarceration after 12 months of release to the community.
