Active clinical trials for "HIV Infections"

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and immune response to two different HIV vaccine regimens in healthy, HIV-uninfected people in the United States and South Africa.

This study aims to investigate the effectiveness of an in-person peer mentoring and health literacy intervention on improving medication adherence, HIV-1 viral load, CD4+ T lymphocyte counts, and HIV medical appointment attendance among newly-diagnosed and/or medication non-adherent HIV-positive individuals, compared to standard of care provider/staff-delivered education.

There are few randomized clinical trials in advanced HIV patients. This is a multicenter, randomized, open clinical trial, comparing 2 parallel groups, to compare the immunological reconstitution and the virological efficacy and safety of 2 different combinations of antiretroviral therapy given once a day (QD): abacavir plus lamivudine plus either dolutegravir, or darunavir-ritonavir during 96 weeks in advanced antiretroviral naïve HIV-1 infected patients with less than 100 CD4+ T-cells/mm3. Primary endpoint is the median increase in CD4+ T-cell count at 48 weeks after starting HAART.

The primary objective is to compare & evaluate between the treatment groups the changes in decline/reduction of HIV viral load & increase changes in WBC white blood cell counts in the adult Remune dose vs the low dose Remune placebo groups. Additional objectives include changes in CD4+ & CD8+ T cell counts along with increased HIV immunity.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether cognitive rehabilitation or psychoeducation impacts medication adherence in HIV-1 seropositive individuals.

Protocol Summary Title: Evaluation of safety and efficacy of two different once daily anti-retroviral treatment regimens along with anti-tuberculosis treatment in patients with HIV-1 and tuberculosis - Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial Phase: Phase III trial Population: 180 HIV-1 positive patients with tuberculosis Number of Sites: Four. Tuberculosis Research Centre, Chennai Government Medical College, Vellore Government Hospital of Thoracic Medicine, Tambaram Government Rajaji Hospital, Madurai Study Duration: 26 months including 24 months of ART. Study Objectives: Primary Objective To compare the efficacy and safety of two different once-daily anti-retroviral treatment regimens (along with standard anti-tuberculosis treatment) in patients with HIV-1 and tuberculosis, by using virologic end points. Secondary Objective To compare the efficacy of antiretroviral treatment given under partial supervision with unsupervised treatment (once a month supply).

This study will test the safety, side effects, and acceptability of two strengths of UC-781 gel when used by women and men in Botswana for two weeks.

One measurement of an HIV infected person's risk of progressing to AIDS is the number of viral particles of HIV in their blood (called a "viral load"). In a previous phase I/II study, SP01A was observed to significantly lower the amount of HIV in blood, improve quality of life (how well subject's felt), have a favorable safety profile (minimal side effects), and be well tolerated. Moreover, in in vitro testing SP01A: (1) demonstrated comparable or greater efficacy than currently approved anti-HIV drugs in preventing HIV virus replication; (2) was observed to have minimal toxic effect on human cells; and (3) demonstrated significant efficacy in preventing virus replication of HIV virus strains that resist currently approved anti-HIV treatments. Based on these results, SP01A demonstrates promise as a new and novel anti-HIV treatment. The goal of this study is to further look at the dose response, efficacy, and safety of SP01A as monotherapy, given as a capsule to be swallowed, in the treatment of HIV-infected subjects. The investigators want to see if SP01A will lower the amount of HIV in blood. Subjects will be assigned by chance to 1 of 4 groups. Neither the subject nor the study doctor or nurse will know which dose of the study drug the subject is taking or if the subject is receiving the placebo (a capsule that looks like the study drug but does not contain any active ingredient). At the end of the 10-day study, the subject will be offered testing of their virus for resistance to approved drugs (genotype) and transferred to their physician for continued treatment with FDA-approved antiretroviral therapies. If the subject experiences a side effect, which continues past the end of the study, they will be further monitored until the side effect goes away.

This is a 48-week study to compare TNX-355 plus OBT to placebo plus OBT in HIV subjects. You must have a stable viral load of at least 10,000 copies/ml, been treated with highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) for at least 6 months, be triple class experienced, and presently failing or have failed a HAART regimen. Subjects will receive infusions every week for 8 weeks, then every two weeks.

The purpose of this study is to see if emtricitabine is safe in children infected with HIV and to determine the best dose.
