Active clinical trials for "HIV Infections"

To evaluate the safety, tolerance and efficacy of three different dosage regimens of Amphotericin B Lipid Complex (ABLC) compared to Fungizone (Amphotericin B) in patients with AIDS and cryptococcal meningitis.

To evaluate the safety and tolerance of chronic administration of Retrovir (AZT) to adult patients with early manifestations of HIV disease. To assess the efficacy of AZT therapy in the treatment of HIV disease in these patients. (12/01/89) Information supplied by drug company update. Study discontinued due to positive data from ACTG 016.

To assess the safety and efficacy of depot disulfiram as a new treatment for AIDS and AIDS related complex.

To evaluate the safety and efficacy of azithromycin in the treatment of intestinal cryptosporidial infection in AIDS patients.

To assess the toxicity profile and determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD), if possible, of S-1153 administered orally 3 times daily for 14 days. To investigate the clinical pharmacokinetic parameters for S-1153. To assess anti-HIV activity associated with S-1153 administration through evaluation of CD4 and viral load measurements.

To characterize the pharmacokinetics of orally administered FLT (in a liquid formulation) after single doses in both the fed and fasting states; to assess the effect of food on the oral bioavailability of FLT

To assess the efficacy of Retrovir (AZT) therapy in the treatment of HIV Ab positive persons with impairments in neuropsychological functioning. To assess the safety, virologic, and immunologic effects of AZT therapy in HIV Ab positive persons with neuropsychological impairment but minimal other symptomatology.

This is a 48-week study to collect additional information on the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and antiviral activity of an investigational regimen (course of therapy) including FDA approved HIV drugs in HIV-infected patients 2 - 18 years old.

This study will evaluate the long-term toxicity and obtain preliminary information about long-term efficacy of the combination of antiretroviral therapies and interleukin-2 (IL-2), a cytokine with immunomodulatory properties. Currently 73 patients have been approved to receive IL-2 at a starting dose of 18 MIU/d for 5 days. Multiple courses of IL-2 will be administered, at approximately 2 month intervals. Clinical, laboratory, immunologic, and viral parameters will be closely monitored during this time for evidence of toxicity and preliminary evidence of efficacy.

This is a Phase I dose-escalating safety study aimed at identifying the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) for an outpatient regimen while exposing the minimum number of patients to a dose less than MTD. The anticipated accrual will be approximately 15 patients and the study will take one year to complete. Patients will receive Proleukin® (Registered Trademark) subcutaneously at their assigned dose level once per day for 5 days approximately every eight weeks for a total of 6 months. A cycle of therapy is defined as 5 days of Proleukin® (Registered Trademark) plus antiviral therapy followed by 7 weeks of antiviral therapy alone. If tolerated, each patient will receive 3 cycles of therapy and, following completion of three cycles, will be eligible for extended treatment. IL-2 injections will be delivered by study personnel on an outpatient basis for at least the first cycle of therapy.
