Active clinical trials for "HIV Infections"

The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy of Bictegravir/FTC/TAF in patients with less of 100 days post HIV infection

In this 24-month pilot study, we will conduct the preparation phase of a multiphase optimization strategy (MOST) to develop a culturally appropriate (for Deep South contexts, to be adolescent friendly, and to be acceptable to parents or guardians) modular HIV prevention mHealth intervention, targeting behavior change related to HIV testing, HIV prevention knowledge, and pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) uptake for sexual and gender minority (SGM) adolescents, that can be seamlessly integrated into the existing school and community environments across the Deep South.

This is a phase 2 study to evaluate the safety and tolerability of combination therapy with Albuvirtide (ABT) and 3BNC117 in virologically suppressed subjects with HIV-1 infection and explore the potential of viral suppression and viral reservoir clearance after analytical treatment interruption (ATI).

This is a pilot, open, prospective, non-randomized study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of switches from etravirine to doravirine, in experienced patients with multiple class resistance including NNRTI resistance. The other ARV medication (protease inhibitor, entry inhibitor and integrase inhibitor) that some patients receive, in addition to the NRTI and NNRTI, will not be changed. The study will be performed only on two sites

To assess the maternal and infant safety of a single daily fixed-dose combination of TDF/FTC/EFV (Atripla®), compared to the association of LPV/r (Kaletra® or Aluvia®) and 3TC/ZDV (Combivir®) given to African women to prevent overall MTCT in populations practicing breastfeeding.

This is a pilot randomized controlled Open-label trial to compare raltegravir and nevirapine as anchor Drug in combined antiretroviral therapy(ART) for ART-naive HIV+ Chinese injection drug users who are also on methadone maintenance therapy. The investigators hypotheses include: In raltegravir arm compared with nevirapine arm, fewer patients will require methadone dose adjustment to abate methadone withdrawal symptoms. Also the average methadone dose to achieve adequate serum methadone concentrations in patients on the raltegravir-based regimen will be lower compared to that of patients on the nevirapine-based regimen. Clinical outcomes in terms of viral suppression, CD4 recovery and occurrence of opportunistic infections will be comparable in the two arms at 6 months and one year. Patients in the raltegravir arm will have a similar or better side effect profile, retention rate, and treatment adherence compared to those in the nevirapine arm.

The overall aim of the BREATHER trial is to evaluate the role of Short-Cycle Therapy (SCT) in the management of HIV-infected young people who have responded well to antiretroviral therapy (ART) and to determine whether young people with chronic HIV infection undergoing Short-Cycle Therapy of five days on ART and two days off maintain the same level of viral load suppression as those on continuous therapy, over 48 weeks. To assess the advantages and disadvantages of the strategy, the incidence of toxicities, immunological control, resistance mutations, acceptability, quality of life and adherence to the randomised strategy will also be compared. Importantly, because of insufficient data on short-term viral load rebound after stopping ART in this population, the trial will incorporate an initial pilot phase in selected centres, to assess the safety of the SCT strategy by evaluating detailed HIV-1 RNA profiles of participants on the SCT strategy.

The PIVOT trial aims to determine whether a strategy of switching to PI monotherapy is non-inferior to continuing triple-therapy, in terms of the proportion of patients who maintain all the drug treatment options that were available to them at baseline after at least 3 years of follow-up, and to compare clinical events, safety, toxicity and health economic parameters between the two strategies.

The purpose of the study is to examine the effects of adding a drug called hydroxychloroquine, usually used to treat rheumatoid arthritis, to patients' usual antiretroviral combination. HIV causes activation of some parts of the immune system and this immune activation may persist despite effective antiretroviral therapy. Ongoing activation may be responsible for poor CD4 rise on antiretroviral therapy and for some HIV-related complications. Drugs like hydroxychloroquine work by inhibiting immune activation. The study will primarily investigate the effect of adding this medication on immunological parameters (particularly CD4 count), on other safety parameters (such as cholesterol), patients' side effects and viral load. If you decide to take part, the duration of your involvement in the study will be 24 weeks plus two screening visits up to 84 days prior to the start of the study and a follow up visit.

Subjects with HIV who have viral suppression on current regimen but also have side effects/intolerance will change their current regimen to a combination of Raltegravir and Atazanavir and be monitored for viral and immunological response and quality of life.
