Active clinical trials for "Immunologic Deficiency Syndromes"

This is an open-label phase III study with a 12-week wash-in/wash-out period followed by a 12-month efficacy period. The main goals of the study are to assess the efficacy of octanorm in preventing serious bacterial infections (SBI) compared with historical control data and to evaluate the pharmacokinetic (PK) characteristics of octanorm.

The primary objectives of this study are to assess the safety of ABT-450/r/ABT-267 with and without ABT-333 coadministered with and without ribavirin (RBV) for 12 and 24 weeks in HCV GT1- or 4-infected participants with HIV-1 coinfection and to evaluate the percentage of subjects achieving HCV ribonucleic acid (RNA) < lower limit of quantification (LLOQ) 12 weeks following treatment.

Despite increased HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus) infection testing in Africa, many patients never enroll in subsequent HIV care after testing or remain in care after an initial enrollment. This study's aim is to improve linkage to HIV care and retention in HIV care through the use of feasible, evidence-based, and practical interventions. The study takes place in Swaziland, the country with the highest HIV prevalence (24%) in sub-Saharan Africa. The study will randomize groups of HIV testing sites and affiliated clinics to either standard of care or a combined intervention strategy (CIS) which consists of point-of care CD4 (cluster differentiation 4 (CD4)) testing at time of HIV testing, fast-track HIV medications for those who are eligible for treatment,mobile phone appointment reminders, care bags filled with health prevention materials, and financial incentives. The study outcomes are linkage to and retention in care as well as cost effectiveness, feasibility of interventions, and patient acceptability of interventions.

The objective of this study is to assess the efficacy, safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of a subcutaneous immune globulin (SCIG; IgPro20) in subjects with primary immunodeficiency (PID). In addition, the study will assess the health-related quality of life and pharmacoeconomic aspects related to treatment with IgPro20.

The purpose of this study is to learn more about the safety and tolerability of etravirine. Etravirine is a type of non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI) which has shown high activity against wild-type human immunodeficiency virus (HIV-1), and HIV strains resistant to other non-nucleotide agents.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics of EZN-2279 in patients with ADA-deficient combined immunodeficiency currently being treated with Adagen.

X-linked severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID-X1) is an inherited disorder that results in failure of development of the immune system in boys. This trial aims to treat SCID-X1 patients using gene therapy to replace the defective gene.

To define the pharmacokinetic characteristics of Nystatin LF IV (intravenous) in human subjects with AIDS-related complex (ARC) after administration of a single IV dose at each of 4 dose levels.

To evaluate the virologic effect of combined administration of zidovudine and ddI or ddC. To evaluate the immunologic effects of zidovudine and ddI or ddC. To evaluate combined administration of zidovudine and ddI or ddC for clinical efficacy. To evaluate the safety and the tolerance of the coadministration of zidovudine and ddI or ddC.

This study will test the effectiveness of topical thalidomide in healing mouth sores in HIV infected patients. Oral (PO) thalidomide heals these sores at a dose of 200 mg per day. However, PO thalidomide can cause drowsiness, skin rashes, allergic reactions, increased viral load, and even nerve damage that may not be reversible. This study will evaluate the efficacy of a topical formulation of thalidomide (placed directly on the surface of the sore) for the healing of these sores. Persons with HIV infection of acquired immunodeficiency of at least 18 years of age with one or more chronic, painful intraoral lesions may be eligible for this study. Subjects must be referred by a primary care physician who is managing their care, and must have HIV/AIDS status confirmed. Patients' HIV treatment regimen will not be altered and those receiving highly active therapy will not be excluded. Patients will be excluded if they are concurrently being treated for mucosal lesions (including topical or systemic steroids, viscous lidocaine, topical or systemic anti-fungals, or mouthwashes), or concurrent thalidomide therapy; receving chemotherapy or radiation therapy for neoplasms; using concurrent acute therapy for opportunistic infections; concurrent use of sedatives (such as CNS depressants or alcohol use); history of allergy to thalidomide; pre-existing peripheral neuropathy of grade II or higher; pregnant or lactating females or those not practicing contraception according to FDA guidelines for thalidomide.
