Active clinical trials for "HIV Infections"

The objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of ginkgo biloba (steady state) on the pharmacokinetics of a single dose of the UGT-substrate raltegravir. Furthermore the safety profile of the combination is studied.

This is a single-center, randomized, two part, open-label, crossover study in healthy adult subjects to assess the oral bioavailability of three GSK2248761 Wet Bead Milled (WBM) tablet formulations manufactured by three different processes relative to the GSK2248761 WBM capsule formulation (Part A) and the effect of a moderate-fat meal on the bioavailability of the selected WBM tablet formulation (Part B).

This study was designed determine whether use of creatine monohydrate, a dietary supplement, can increase skeletal muscle mass and strength and improve the response to progressive resistance exercise training in people with HIV infection.

To confirm safety and pharmacokinetics of maraviroc following a single oral dose of 300 mg maraviroc in healthy male Japanese volunteers.

A study in healthy volunteers to determine whether there is a drug interaction between GSK1349572 and the HIV protease inhibitors lopinavir/ritonavir and darunavir/ritonavir

This study is being conducted to look at how the body handles the drug maraviroc. It will measure the amount of maraviroc in blood, semen, saliva and in the rectum of men. The aim is to understand how much of the drug (taken by mouth) reaches the oral, reproductive and intestinal tracts. It is believed that the presence of this drug in these areas may be beneficial in preventing the AIDS virus (HIV) from being passed from one person to another. The study will take samples of blood, saliva, semen and rectal mucosal tissue to measure drug levels. This study will also collect information on side effects.

The "PLUS" study is a pilot study to measure the effect of therapy intensification (with raltegravir and optional second agent) on HIV levels in the gut and blood in patients on antiretroviral therapy (ART) with viral load < 50 copies/mL (herein referred to as "suppressed"). We hypothesize that there is ongoing replication in the gut despite suppressive ART and that this replication can be inhibited by the addition of one or two new antiretroviral drugs whose activity affects a distinct part of the viral life cycle. All study participants will have upper and lower endoscopy at baseline (before intensification) and after intensification. These endoscopies will be used to obtain gut tissue and single cells (for CD4+ cells) .

Obese HIV-positive women with Metabolic Syndrome (HIV-MS) and obese HIV-negative women with Metabolic Syndrome will be studied before and after achieving moderate (6%-8%) diet-induced weight loss. The investigators hypothesize that health markers will improve in both groups but that the improvement will be blunted in the women with HIV-MS.

To evaluate the effectiveness of nutrition education and dietary counselling to improve the nutritional status, well-being and quality of life of people living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHA) attending an HIV treatment facility in Bangkok Thailand.

The main purpose of this protocol is to study the effect of an HIV medication, Kaletra (lopinavir/ritonavir), on buprenorphine in non-HIV infected people who have been receiving the same dose of buprenorphine for at least 3 weeks. Study Hypothesis: Kaletra (lopinavir/ritonavir) will increase buprenorphine plasma levels without any significant clinical effect on the subject or need for dose adjustment.
