Active clinical trials for "Coinfection"

The goal of this study is to assess hepatitis C virus (HCV) treatment with Zepatier (elbasvir/grazoprevir) in HCV monoinfected and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-HCV co-infected, HCV treatment-naïve or peginterferon/ribavirin-experienced patients with HCV genotype 1a, without baseline NS5A resistance, 1b, or 4 and substance use in urban, multidisciplinary specialty clinics.

A Respiratory infection with the SARS-CoV2 virus is associated with a major risk of viral pneumonia that can lead to respiratory distress requiring resuscitation. In the most severe forms, it may require mechanical ventilation or even lead to an acute respiratory distress syndrome with a particularly poor prognosis. The SARS-CoV2 is a single-stranded RNA virus of positive polarity and belongs to the beta genus of Coronaviruses. SARS-CoV2 is responsible for the third epidemic in less than twenty years secondary to a Coronavirus (SARS-CoV then MERS-CoV) and if the mortality associated with it is lower than that of previous strains, notably MERS-CoV, its spread is considerably big. As a result, the number of patients developing respiratory distress requiring invasive mechanical ventilation is high, with prolonged ventilation duration in these situations

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

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.

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

The frequency of Chlamydia trachomatis and Neisseria gonorrhoeae coinfection can vary depending on their individual incidence and prevalence rates.Single-agent therapy with ceftriaxone is the preferred regimen for treatment of gonococcal infections. If an injectable cephalosporin is not available, cefixime is the only oral cephalosporin that can be used for gonococcal therapy. Doxycycline was recommended for presumptive treatment of chlamydia in nonpregnant individuals with gonococcal infection. The study is conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of two regimens in combination with doxycycline with cefixime or ceftriaxone.

This study is designed to test the hypothesis that treatment of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection during the first 6 months after acquiring HCV among people who already have pre-existing HIV infection will result in improved responses to HCV therapy with a shorter duration of infection.

Combination therapy with anti-HBV activity may both increase HBV suppression rates and reduce emergence of resistant strains. Several new therapeutic agents are currently in development, however combination therapy trials in the HBV-infected population have only recently commenced. No such trials have been undertaken in the HIV/HBV co-infected population.

The majority of Human immunodeficiency Virus (HIV)/Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) co-infected patients are non responders after 48 weeks of the current standard-of-care with Peg-Interferon/Ribavirin. The results of re-treatment are disappointing. The addition of Boceprevir to the current standard-of-care has been shown to increase the efficacy of therapy in HCV mono-infected patients previously treated with a bi-therapy. Knowing that HIV/HCV co-infected patients are subject to more rapid hepatic fibrosis as well as to increased risks of cirrhosis, end-stage liver disease and hepatocellular carcinoma, it is important to improve the response rate of the re-treatment of hepatitis C in these patients. The aim of this pilot study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Boceprevir in combination with Peg-Interferon alfa 2b plus ribavirin, in patients co-infected with HIV and chronic genotype 1 HCV, and previously treated with Peg-Interferon/Ribavirin. 80 subjects will be enrolled. The primary endpoint will be the Sustained Virologic Response (SVR) defined as undetectable HCV-RNA at Week 24 after the end of therapy.

The investigators aim at describing changes in renal glomerular and tubular function with after the switch from TDF to TAF in HIV/HBV-coinfected patients with mild to moderate renal dysfunction and to assess the virological efficacy of TAF on HBV infection. The study will include HIV/HBV-coinfected participants of the Swiss HIV Cohort Study (SHCS) who are under active care and have been on a stable, TDF-containing ART regimen for at least 6 months. Only patients with an estimated glomerular filtration rate (GFR) between 30 ml/min and 90 ml/min will be included. All individuals who agree to participate will be switched from a TDF-containing ART regimen to a TAF-containing triple ART regimen at week 0 and will be followed for 48 weeks after the treatment change.
