Active clinical trials for "Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome"

This is an open label, randomized Phase II study to determine whether Mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) given over 22 months meaningfully decreases the size of participants' HIV reservoir. In addition to primary safety endpoints, the following hypotheses regarding drug efficacy will be tested: MMF will be well tolerated and will not decrease adherence to or antiviral efficacy of ART. Peripheral CD4+ T-cell counts and percentages will not meaningfully decrease during treatment with MMF and ART. There will be no excess risk of opportunistic infections in MMF-treated study participants. MMF therapy will lead to a progressive decrease in reservoir size over 22 months of treatment. MMF therapy will lead to a continual shift in HIV reservoir composition from primarily effector memory CD4+ T cells (TEM) and central memory CD4+ T cells (TCM), to primarily stem cell like memory (TSCM) and naïve (TN) CD4+ T cells. MMF will eliminate detectable measures of the HIV reservoir, including by cell-associated DNA/mRNA and quantitative viral outgrowth. MMF will not decrease the humoral immune response to routine annual influenza vaccination.

This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of glecaprevir/pibrentasvir (ABT-493/ABT-530) in non-cirrhotic chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype (GT)1 to GT6-infected Asian participants with or without human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) co-infection who are HCV treatment-naïve or treatment-experienced with interferon (IFN) with or without ribavirin (RBV), OR sofosbuvir with RBV with or without IFN.

This study evaluates the efficacy, safety and tolerability of switching from the older, established single tablet regimen of ATRIPLA® (EFV/FTC/TDF) to a new single tablet regimen of BIKTARVY® (BIC/FTC/TAF), in HIV-1 infected adult subjects who are virologically suppressed (HIV-1 RNA<50 copies/mL).

This study will evaluate the frequency of ovulation and cervical mucus quality of HIV-infected women on efavirenz (EFV)-based antiretroviral therapy (ART) using either a single etonogestrel (ENG) implant or two ENG implants for at least one year.

This is a Phase 1, open-label, single sequence, two-way interaction study in healthy male and female subjects. For the effect of maraviroc on the pharmacokinetics (PK) of BMS-626529 (the active moiety of BMS-663068), there is no formal hypothesis to be statistically tested. The purpose of this assessment is to estimate the effect of maraviroc on the PK of BMS-626529 when coadministered in healthy subjects. For the effect of BMS-663068 on the PK of maraviroc, the hypothesis to be statistically tested is that BMS-663068 will not have a clinically significant effect on the PK of maraviroc when coadministered in healthy subjects.

The primary objectives of this study are to evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of treatment with sofosbuvir/velpatasvir (SOF/VEL) for 12 weeks in participants with chronic HCV infection who were coinfected with HIV-1.

Like most of sub-Saharan Africa, Rwandan youth are the epicenter of the AIDS epidemic, accounting for 40% of new infections. Antiretroviral (ART) adherence is a global health priority, but Rwandan youth are more than twice as likely to be on second line therapy than adults, and with a median population age of 18.7 years old, adherence is essential for Rwanda's future. Resources to provide youth-centered medical and psychosocial care are limited in Rwanda, and young people with HIV face many obstacles to adherence, namely the long-term consequences of genocide, depression, and gender-based violence, as well as logistical issues, negative attitudes, and insufficient parent/caregiver support. Preliminary data underscore the utility of culturally-adapted, trauma-informed cognitive behavioral therapy (TI-CBT) in reducing depression and traumatic distress among youth and adults in Rwanda. This project proposes a 2-arm randomized controlled trial (RCT) to test and compare the efficacy of adherence-enhanced Trauma Informed Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (i.e., TI-CBTe) to usual care in increasing ART adherence among Rwandan youth from two clinics caring for the largest number of youth with HIV in Rwanda. This proposal answers a compelling need for innovative programs to increase ART adherence among HIV+ youth. If effective, the study will build Rwanda's capacity to provide much needed services; and, involvement by the Rwanda Biomedical Center will ensure wide dissemination.

This study will evaluate the effects of multiple doses of doravirine (MK-1439) on the pharmacokinetics of methadone in participants requiring methadone maintenance therapy. The primary hypothesis is that area under the plasma concentration-time curve to 24 hours postdose (AUC0-24) of (R)-methadone is similar when a maintenance regimen of methadone is administered with or without multiple daily doses of doravirine.

Combined antiretroviral therapy (cART) efficiently suppress viral replication in majority of AIDS patients. The morbidity and mortality of the disease has dramatically decreased over the past 20 years. However, chronic human immunodeficiency virus-1 (HIV-1) infection lead to profound immune defects in some advanced AIDS patients who often develop with severe opportunistic infections (OIs), severe cachexia and other deadly complications, which accounts for the major death group even under cART. Up-to-date, there are no effective immune interventions to restore host holistic immunity for advanced AIDS patients.

This is a Phase I, single-center, open-label, fixed-sequence, 2-period crossover study in healthy adults to evaluate the effect of oral rifabutin (RBT) 300 milligram (mg) on the pharmacokinetics of oral cabotegravir (CAB) 30 milligram ( mg). This study will evaluate the drug-drug interaction (DDI) potential between CAB and RBT to inform dosing strategies for tuberculosis in subjects receiving CAB for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) treatment or prevention. In Treatment Period 1 (Treatment A) participants will receive CAB 30 mg once daily for 14 days, followed by Treatment Period 2 (Treatment B) where participants will receive RBT 300 mg once daily with CAB 30 mg once daily for 14 days. The total study duration will be approximately for 10 weeks. Approximately 15 healthy subjects will be enrolled to ensure that 12 subjects complete dosing and critical assessments.
