Active clinical trials for "HIV Infections"

This is an open labelled study to estimate the effect of maraviroc on the pharmacokinetics of digoxin, a probe for p-glycoprotein.

To evaluate the efficacy and safety at 48 weeks between LPV/r monotherapy and 2 NRTIs + LPV/r therapy in patients failing a standard NNRTI-based treatment regimen. Also, to evaluate the short-term 24-week efficacy and safety of Lopinavir/ritonavir (LPV/r) monotherapy and 2 NRTIs+LPV/r therapy in patients failing a standard NNRTI-based treatment regimen as an interim analyses when 50% of the patients in each arm have reached 24 weeks after randomization. Last, to define risk factors for monotherapy failure in HIV-treated individuals Hypothesis. The rate of virologic suppression is not inferior in the monotherapy arm.

The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) guidelines recommend that HIV infected patients who have never received anti-HIV therapy be treated with a triple drug regimen. The most commonly prescribed and successful regimen contains the medication efavirenz (EFV). However, this regimen may not be an option for everyone, hence alternative regimens are needed. This study was designed to look at how well different combinations of anti-HIV drugs work to decrease the amount of HIV in the blood (viral load) of and allow immune system recovery in people who have never received anti-HIV therapy. This study also examined drug tolerability and safety for the various drug combinations.

The objective of this double-blinded, multicenter, randomized, active-controlled study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Stribild, a single-tablet regimen (STR) containing fixed doses of elvitegravir (EVG)/GS-9350 (cobicistat; COBI)/emtricitabine (FTC)/tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) versus efavirenz (EFV)/FTC/TDF (Atripla) in HIV-1 infected, antiretroviral treatment-naive adult participants. Stribild offers an alternative STR for patients who are not candidates for non-nucleoside reverse transcriptor (NNRTI)-based STRs. Participants will be randomized in a 2:1 ratio to receive Stribild or Atripla. Randomization will be stratified by HIV-1 RNA level (≤ 100,000 copies/mL or > 100,000 copies/mL) at screening. After Week 48, participants will continue to take their blinded study drug and attend visits every 12 weeks until treatment assignments are unblinded (Week 60), at which point all participants will attend an Unblinding Visit and be given the option to participate in an open-label rollover extension (the extension is scheduled to be open until Stribild becomes commercially available, or until Gilead Sciences elects to terminate the study).

The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and efficacy of a VRC DNA/rAd5 vaccine regimen in healthy, circumcised men and male-to-female (MTF) transgender persons who have sex with men. NOTES: As of April 2013, all vaccinations in this study have been stopped. As of June 2017, this study has been closed.

A placebo controlled study of the impact on insulin sensitivity and lipid profile of maraviroc 300 mg twice daily in HIV negative male volunteers.

A study to test the safety and effect of twice daily raltegravir in a diverse cohort of patients currently infected with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), where at least 50% are African American and at least 25% are female, either having received antiretroviral drugs before or not.

The study is a randomized, open label, phase II clinical trial directed at evaluating the immunogenicity (as a primary end-point) and the safety (as a secondary end-point), of the recombinant HIV-1 Tat vaccine in HIV-1 infected adult subjects, anti-Tat antibody negative, HAART-treated with chronic suppressed HIV-1 infection, CD4+ T cell counts >= 200 cells/microliter, levels of plasma viremia < 50 copies/ml in the last 6 months prior to the screening and without a history of virologic rebound. The immunogenicity of 3 or 5 immunizations of the two different vaccine doses (7.5 and 30 micrograms) of the Tat vaccine has been evaluated.

To compare the steady-state pharmacokinetics and short-term efficacy and safety of two dosing strategies of raltegravir and atazanavir in virologically suppressed HIV-infected adults receiving atazanavir-containing combination antiretroviral therapy.

Cigarette smoking is a major cause of illness among HIV-infected patients (non-AIDS defining malignancies (especially lung cancer), non-AIDS bacterial infections and cardio-vascular diseases). Approximately 50% of HIV-infected patients are regular tobacco smokers. Tobacco smoking cessation has well known benefits on mortality and morbidity in the general population where tobacco cessation assistance programs are increasingly implemented. However, smoking cessation interventions have never been evaluated among HIV-infected patients. This trial aims at evaluating the efficacy and safety of varenicline for smoking cessation compared with placebo.
