Active clinical trials for "HIV Infections"

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the CCR5 antagonist GW873140 or placebo in combination with an optimized background regimen in treatment-experienced HIV-infected subjects with R5-tropic virus

The aim of this randomized study is to compare the effect of pioglitazone versus placebo on change in limb fat in HIV 1-infected patients treated with antiretroviral therapy for at least 6 months and with clinical lipoatrophy.

This is an open-label, prospective, randomized, controlled study of the safety and efficacy including clinical, immunologic, and virologic assessments of adding Ampligen to "HAART" in HIV infected patients with CD4 counts >300 and HIV-1 plasma RNA >500 and <30,000 copies/ml (PCR).

Background: Weight gain can lead to obesity and diabetes even in people living with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Researchers want to see if the technique intermittent calorie restriction can help overweight people with HIV as an alternative to traditional diets. Objective: To see if intermittent calorie restriction leads to weight loss and improved blood sugar in obese people with HIV. Eligibility: Adults ages 18-65 with HIV who are obese and do not have diabetes Design: Participants will be screened with a medical history, physical exam, and blood and urine tests. Before starting treatment, participants will: Have a nutritional consultation Get a pedometer to record daily steps Test a restricted diet for 1 day Have a body x-ray At the baseline visit, participants will have: Blood drawn after they drink a sugar drink Questions about their health and eating A nutritional consultation Resting energy expenditure measured. Participants will fast overnight. Then they will lie down while a plastic bubble goes over the head and a plastic sheet covers the upper body. Oxygen flows into the bubble. Liver stiffness test. A wand on the stomach releases sound waves like an ultrasound. For 12 weeks, some participants will be on a standard diet. Others will restrict how much food they eat 2 days a week. On those days they will eat about 25% of their recommended calories. Participants will keep a diary of their diet and steps. Participants will have 4 visits during the 12-week diet and 1 visit 12 weeks after the diet ends. They will repeat previous tests.

Study to determine the effects of 28 days of nevirapine treatment on the steady-state pharmacokinetics of amprenavir and of abacavir and to further evaluate the pharmacokinetics of nevirapine in combination with amprenavir and abacavir compared to historical controls treated with nevirapine but without amprenavir or abacavir. In addition safety/tolerance of nevirapine, amprenavir and abacavir was to be assessed based on adverse events and clinical laboratory data.

The purpose of this pilot study is to assess feasibility and to examine whether oral cannabinoids (capsules containing either Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and cannabidiol (CBD) combined or CBD alone) are safe and well-tolerated in people living with HIV. Other aims are to determine whether oral cannabinoids may reduce HIV-associated inflammation. An exploratory objective is to determine whether oral cannabinoids may influence HIV persistence as well as the gastrointestinal microbiome.

This is a pragmatic randomized controlled study comparing existing linkage to care and retention (LTCR) services to an mHealth-enhanced linkage to care and retention (mLTCR) protocol.

The DaRifi study aims: Develop adjusted doses of darunavir/ritonavir for use in HIV-infected patients requiring co-treatment of TB with a rifampicin-based regimen. Compare the steady state pharmacokinetics of doubled doses of DRV/r with rifampicin (in once daily and 12-hourly approaches) to standard daily doses without rifampicin. Twenty-eight volunteers will be enrolled for a target of 24 participants completing the study.

This is an open-label, single-dose, four-period, four sequential, and crossover study conducted to assess the relative bioavailability of GSK3640254 mesylate tablets and GSK3640254 mesylate capsules (in the presence of a moderate fat meal). This study will also evaluate the effect of food (fasted, moderate fat meal, and high fat meal) on the pharmacokinetics of GSK3640254 mesylate tablet formulation. Participants will be randomized to receive a single dose of GSK3640254 200 milligram (mg) capsules under moderate fat conditions and GSK3640254 200 mg tablets under moderate fat, fasted and high fat conditions in each treatment period. Approximately 16 participants will be enrolled and the duration of the study will be approximately 54 days.

Evaluation of antiretroviral therapy combining Raltegravir and Maraviroc in patients with virological success, presenting with clinical lipohypertrophy.
