Active clinical trials for "HIV Infections"

The investigators will conduct a pilot randomized controlled trial (RCT) of Sisters-GPS with HIV-positive women of color with suboptimal ARV adherence and detectable HIV viral loads (VL). Participants will be randomized to Sisters-GPS (intervention involving weekly group clinical visits for seven weeks plus social media website) or appointment with an adherence counselor (a minimum of 3 visits) (control condition). Data sources will include interviews, medical and pharmacy records, and blood samples. The primary outcome will be ARV adherence at the completion of the intervention assessed via pill count. The secondary outcome will be HIV VL suppression.

This study will estimate the cumulative incidence of Zika infection at the end of the first epidemic in the French West Indies in a sample of patients followed for HIV infection.

This study will evaluate the efficacy of navigation for hepatitis C treatment in people living with both HIV and HCV with criminal justice involvement.

The purpose of this pilot study is to examine the effects of eight 4-day cycles of subcutaneous recombinant interleukin-2 (rIL-2) given every 8 weeks on levels of replication-competent HIV in CD4 cells and on the size of HIV viral reservoir in up to 20 participants with chronically suppressed HIV infection (viral load <50 copies/mL).

This study is a two-period, double-blind study in healthy adult female subjects. Each subject will participate in an oral contraceptive Run-in period prior to the treatment periods. The length of the Run-in Period will be 28 days or longer, depending on the timing of the subject's menstrual cycle and on whether the subject is taking an OC. Each subject will participate in this run-in period (if needed), followed by two treatment periods. Treatment Periods 1 and 2 must be conducted successively. Subjects will be randomized in a cross-over fashion to either YASMIN with GSK2248761 or Placebo for 10 days and switch GSK2248761 or placebo for another 10 days. Subjects will return to the study center for final follow up evaluations 7 - 14 days after the final dose of study medication.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of an HIV-1 nef/tat/vif, env pDNA vaccine delivered with electroporation (EP), followed by a recombinant vesicular stomatitis virus (rVSV) HIV envC vaccine boost, in healthy, HIV-uninfected adults.

The incidence of HIV/AIDS among African American men who have sex with men (MSM) is alarming, and the public health response to this urgent situation has been hampered by a lack of sexual risk reduction interventions with solid evidence of efficacy in this population. Accordingly, the broad, long-term objective of the proposed research is to identify interventions to reduce the risk of sexually transmitted infection (STI) among African American MSM. This application seeks funds to develop and test the efficacy of a theory-based, contextually appropriate behavioral intervention to reduce sexual risk behavior among African American MSM. Intervention development will be guided by social cognitive theory, the theory of planned behavior, qualitative information from focus groups, and findings from a longitudinal survey of men from the study population. A one-on-one intervention will be utilized to address the specific prevention needs of each man and to allay participants' concerns about revealing their sexual involvement with men by virtue of participating in a group or workshop intervention. The study will utilize a randomized controlled trial design, with baseline, immediate post intervention, and 6 and 12 months post intervention assessments. The participants will be African American MSM who will be randomized to a one-on-one sexual risk reduction intervention or a one-on-one health promotion intervention that will serve as the control condition. The primary outcome is consistent condom use during anal and vaginal intercourse. The study will test whether the intervention increases the consistent use of condoms during anal intercourse, the primary outcome, whether it decreases other sexual risk behaviors, and whether social cognitive theory variables mediate the effects of the intervention on consistent condom use. This study will provide an urgently needed intervention to reduce the risk of HIV and other STIs in one of the highest risk populations in the United States.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and pharmacokinetics (PK) of dapivirine gel (0.05%) administered rectally to HIV-1 seronegative adults.

The primary purpose of this study is to assess safety, tolerability of the different vaccine schedules (different regimen durations and different number of dose administrations) with Ad26.Mos.HIV and Clade C Glycoprotein (gp) 140 and to assess Envelope (Env)-binding Antibody (Ab) responses of the different vaccine schedules.

This study will evaluate the hypothesis that intravaginal rings (IVRs) can safely and in a sustained fashion, deliver the antiretroviral (ARV) drugs - tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF), emtricitabine (FTC), and maraviroc (MVC), in healthy women when used in the following drug combinations: 1) TDF ("Single" IVR); 2) TDF-FTC ("Dual" IVR) and; 3) TDF-FTC-MVC ("Triple" IVR). TDF = tenofovir disoproxil fumarate; FTC = emtrcitabine; MVC = maraviroc
