NCT00000829
To assess whether HIV-infected infants who receive a heptavalent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine have more local reactions at the site of injection and systemic reactions than placebo subjects. To assess whether this vaccine is more immunogenic than placebo following the third vaccination. Children with HIV infection are at increased risk for invasive pneumococcal infection, particularly bacteremia. A large proportion of pneumococcal disease is caused by a limited number of serotypes. The maximum number of pneumococcal serotypes that can be included in a new conjugate vaccine is felt to be limited by the amount of carrier protein. A heptavalent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine has been developed that consists of pneumococcal capsular saccharides from serotypes 4, 6B, 9V, 14, 18C, 19F, and 23F bound to a diphtheria toxin mutant carrier protein.
NCT00000653
To evaluate and compare the long-term (48-177 weeks) safety, tolerance, and efficacy of two doses of zalcitabine ( dideoxycytidine; ddC ) taken orally every 8 hours in children with symptomatic HIV infection who have one of the following: intolerance to zidovudine ( AZT ) (development of toxicity during prolonged AZT therapy), demonstrated disease progression after 6 months of AZT therapy, OR both AZT intolerance and disease progression after 6 months of AZT therapy. As useful as AZT appears to be in the treatment of patients infected with HIV, it is associated with significant toxicity in some patients, and it does not prevent ultimate progression to AIDS and eventual mortality. Thus, there is a clear need for new antiretroviral drugs, and ddC is one such promising agent.
NCT03631732
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of switching from a regimen of 2 nucleos(t)Ide reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs) and a third agent to a fixed dose combination (FDC) of bictegravir/emtricitabine/tenofovir alafenamide (B/F/TAF) versus continuing their baseline regimen in HIV-1 infected, virologically suppressed African American participants.
NCT01232361
The main purpose of this study is to find out how stimulant medications (methylphenidate or amphetamine/ dextroamphetamine) for the treatment of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)are processed in HIV-1 infected and HIV-uninfected children and adolescents.
NCT01928927
The main goal of this study was to see if a drug called telmisartan would decrease fibrosis (scarring) and inflammation (irritation) in people who are infected with HIV and doing well on their HIV medications. The study was also done to see what effects telmisartan has on other signs of disease and inflammation in the body, and to see whether people who have HIV can take telmisartan safely and without side effects that make them want to stop the drug. Telmisartan is FDA-approved for treating high blood pressure and decreasing the chance of heart attacks and strokes in people over the age of 55 years of age who are at high risk for these events.
NCT02440789
The purpose of this study was to find out about the safety of sirolimus in individuals with HIV infection who were also being treated with ART. The investigators wanted to learn whether sirolimus decreases inflammation and immune activation in the body; whether sirolimus changes the level of HIV in the participants' blood; and how sirolimus interacts with ART in the blood. Sirolimus is approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to prevent organ rejection in patients aged 13 years and older receiving kidney transplants. Sirolimus had also been used for the prevention of complications after stem cell transplants and as a treatment for certain kinds of cancers in HIV-infected patients.
NCT01543152
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability and effect on HIV viral load, of escalating doses of cyclophosphamide administered 1 day prior to SB-728-T infusion.
NCT02603120
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of switching from a regimen of dolutegravir (DTG) and abacavir/lamivudine (ABC/3TC) or a fixed dose combination (FDC) of abacavir/dolutegravir/lamivudine (ABC/DTG/3TC) to a FDC of bictegravir/emtricitabine/tenofovir alafenamide (B/F/TAF) versus continuing DTG and ABC/3TC as the FDC ABC/DTG/3TC in virologically suppressed Human Immunodeficiency Virus- 1 (HIV-1) infected adults.
NCT03945981
Early initiation of antiretroviral therapy (ART) reduces morbidity and mortality for individuals infected with HIV. Suppressing viral replication with ART also reduces the potential for transmission of HIV. Hence, ART is recommended for all persons with HIV viremia regardless of cluster of differentiation 4 (CD4) count. This is an open-label single arm which will evaluate the feasibility, efficacy and safety using a fixed dose combination (FDC) of Dolutegravir (DTG) plus Lamivudine (3TC) as a first line regimen of a rapid Test and Treat model of care over 48 weeks. Participants with new and confirmed diagnosed HIV-1 who are willing to start study treatment immediately following diagnosis will receive 50 milligram (mg) DTG + 300 (mg) 3TC FDC as first line therapy without waiting for screening laboratory results, at the Screening/Day 1 Visit. The total duration for the study will be 52 weeks and 4 weeks of follow up period if required. This study will be conducted in United States (US) with approximately 120 participants.
NCT00264875
To evaluate the safety and efficacy of pregabalin in reducing neuropathic pain associated with HIV neuropathy
NCT00000861
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of immediate versus deferred indinavir (IDV) in addition to background therapy on disease progression or death in patients with CD4+ cell counts between 200 and 500 cells/mm3 and plasma HIV RNA levels \>= 10,000 copies/ml. This study aims to examine two management strategies, immediate versus deferred IDV therapy, for their clinical effects in the context of background antiretroviral (AR) therapy, given according to current clinical practice. There is an urgent need to identify the optimal use of IDV in patient management, since clinical endpoint studies have not been completed in the United States. Since there is little information about the long term durability of clinical effects, and even less information about the timing of the initiation of protease inhibitor therapy, exploring the disease progression and survival impact of immediate versus delayed use of IDV will yield important information to guide clinical decision making for this group of patients.
NCT00514605
Each year up to 22 million persons in the US are tested for HIV. Currently available "rapid" tests do not provide test results for at least 30 minutes from the collection of serum and plasma from the subject. Providing accurate test results in less than a minute would make it easier to make timely decisions about treatment and counselling. This study will compare results of an experimental rapid test to existing standards to determine if the test can reliably and accurately diagnose HIV in less than one minute.
NCT00000901
The purpose of this study is to see if it is safe and effective to give an anti-HIV drug combination of indinavir (IDV) plus stavudine (d4T) plus lamivudine (3TC) to HIV-infected children. IDV will be given either as a powder mixed into applesauce or as capsules given on an empty stomach.
NCT03292432
Youth Living with HIV (YLWH) often face unique challenges achieving high and sustained rates of adherence to their antiretroviral therapy (ART). Poor adherence can lead to unsuppressed virus, more advanced HIV disease and poorer health outcomes, eventually exhausting treatment options. To date however, there are few demonstrated interventions for youth failing first line therapy. This study evaluated a novel intervention that used remote coaching through video enabled counseling sessions, an Electronic Dose Monitoring (EDM) pill bottle that notified an adherence coach when youth failed to open/close the device around dose time, and problem solving outreach by the coach in response to not dosing from the EDM. This intensive 'boot camp' strategy was implemented for 12 weeks followed by observation through 48 weeks.
NCT00000648
To provide information on the response of HIV infected, neurosyphilis patients to the currently recommended treatment for neurosyphilis; to determine whether possible co-infection with both HIV and syphilis makes more difficult the diagnosis of syphilis; to explore the usefulness of an alternative treatment which, if effective, would permit outpatient treatment for neurosyphilis that until now required prolonged hospitalization. Studies suggest that syphilis treatment failures may be more common in HIV infected patients than in patients without HIV infection and that treatment failures occur due to and/or are displayed as central nervous system (CNS) involvement. Very little is known about the best treatment course for neurosyphilis in patients who are also infected with HIV.
NCT00384787
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety of, immune response to, and tolerability of an adenoviral vector HIV vaccine given after a three-dose regimen of a DNA HIV vaccine. The adenoviral vaccine will be given into arm muscle (intramuscularly), between skin layers (intradermally), or under the skin (subcutaneously). NOTE: In October 2007, vaccinations with the adenoviral vaccine, VRC-HIVADV014-00-VP, were discontinued. In December 2007, vaccinations with the DNA vaccine were also discontinued. Participants will be followed for safety and immune responses at regular study visits.
NCT02383108
A two-arm, Phase 2/3 multicentre, open-label, randomised study evaluating safety and antiviral effect of current standard antiretroviral therapy compared to once daily integrase inhibitor administered with darunavir/ritonavir (DRV/r) in HIV-1 infected, virologically suppressed paediatric participants.
NCT02178592
HIV/Tuberculosis (TB) co-infection have profound effects on the host's immune system. TB is the most common cause of death in patients with HIV worldwide. Rifamycins (such as rifampicin \[RIF\]) are an important component of TB therapy because of their unique activity. The problem is that most protease inhibitors (PI) and non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTI) used to treat HIV have significant drug-drug interactions with RIF that can lead to reduced concentrations of these agents with risk of treatment failure or resistance. The non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI) efavirenz (EFV) does not present the same significant drug interactions with RIF. EFV-based HIV treatment was tested in patients concomitantly treated with RIF-containing TB therapy, demonstrating that their co-administration can be used safely and effectively. However, the side effect profile of EFV overlaps with the RIF-containing TB regimens and makes the management of treatment toxicities very complex. Integrase inhibitors (INI), such as dolutegravir (DTG), may offer an important alternative to EFV-based therapy in TB coinfected patients. A Phase I drug-drug interaction study was conducted in healthy, HIV-seronegative subjects, and showed that DTG at 50 mg twice daily given together with RIF was well-tolerated and resulted in DTG concentrations similar to those of DTG 50 mg given once daily alone, which is the recommended dose for INI-naive patients. Therefore, ART regimens using DTG 50 mg twice daily may represent a new treatment option for TB-infected patients who require concurrent treatment for HIV infection. This is a Phase III b, randomized, open-label study describing the efficacy and safety of DTG and EFV-containing ART regimens in HIV/TB co-infected patients. This study is designed to assess the antiviral activity of DTG or efavirenz (EFV) ART-containing regimens through 48 weeks. A total of approximately 115 +/-5% subjects will be randomly assigned in a 3:2 ratio to DTG (approximately 69 subjects) and EFV (approximately 46 subjects), respectively. This study will include a Screening Period, a Randomized Phase (Day 1 to 48 weeks plus a 4-week extension), and a DTG Open-label extension (OLE). During the DTG OLE, subjects will be supplied with DTG until it is locally approved and commercially available, the subject no longer derives clinical benefit, or the subject meets a protocol-defined reason for discontinuation, which ever comes first.
NCT03784079
Infection with HIV-1 continues to be a serious health threat throughout the world. Chronic exposure to combination anti-retroviral therapy identified anti-retroviral associated long-term toxicities. Hence, there is a need to prevent these co-morbidities. GSK3640254 is a next-generation HIV-1 Maturation Inhibitor (MI) which may be effective for HIV-1 infection. This study will evaluate the antiviral effect, safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics/ pharmacodynamics of GSK3640254 in HIV-1 infected treatment-naive adults. This study will consists of two parts; Part 1 and Part 2. Part 1 will evaluate two active doses of GSK3640254, 200 milligrams (mg) (Cohort 1) and 10 mg (Cohort 2) along with placebo to match GSK3640254 Mesylate salt. Part 2 will evaluate three active doses of GSK3640254. Dose level 1 of GSK3640254 that can provide at least 30 percent of the maximum effect (Cohort 1), dose level 2 of GSK3640254 that can provide at least 75 percent of the maximum effect (Cohort 2) and dose level 3 of GSK3640254 that can provide at least 90 percent of the maximum effect (Cohort 3). These doses are anticipated to be 5 mg, 40 mg and 100 mg respectively, but could be modified based on data obtained in Part 1. Subjects will also receive placebo to match GSK3640254 Mesylate salt in Part 2 of the study. All doses will be administered after a moderate fat meal. This study will consist of Screening period (up to 14 days), Treatment period (Day 1- Day 10), post-dose Follow-up (Day 11- Day 17) and final Follow-up (Day 18-24). A total of approximately 34 subjects will be enrolled, of which, 14 subjects will be randomized in Part 1 and 20 in Part 2 of the study. Six subjects will be enrolled in each of the active dose cohorts and 2 subjects will be enrolled in each of the placebo cohorts.
NCT01145417
This study examines the safety of pregabalin over a 6 month period in patients with neuropathic pain associated with HIV infection as an extension of another trial that tests the efficacy of pregabalin.
