NCT00023413
The aim of this trial is to study the efavirenz-rifabutin interaction. Thus, this trial will enroll patients with HIV and tuberculosis co-infections who are receiving a rifabutin-based regimen and who plan to begin an antiretroviral regimen containing efavirenz dosed at 600 mg daily. Enrollment in TB Trials Consortium Study 23 is not a requirement for participation in this study. Primary Objective: To compare the pharmacokinetics of rifabutin at 600 mg twice a week in combination with efavirenz 600 mg daily to the pharmacokinetics of rifabutin 300 mg twice a week without efavirenz.
NCT01077960
In Serono Study 24380, the antecedent protocol to Study 25373, patients were randomly assigned in a 3.0-to-1.0 ratio to Groups A and B. All patients in Group A received recombinant human growth hormone (Serostim®) 4 mg daily (the "induction" phase) for the first 12 weeks, and then were re-randomized to receive either placebo or Serostim 2 mg on alternate days (roughly equivalent to 1 mg daily) during Weeks 12-36 (the "maintenance" phase). All patients in Group B initially received placebo from baseline to Week 24, and then received Serostim® 4 mg daily from Weeks 24 to 36 (Grunfeld, 2007). In the follow-up Study 25373, any subject who was enrolled in Serono Study 24380 and was assigned to Group A, who fully completed all study visits without a major protocol violation, was eligible to enroll to receive re-treatment with Serostim at a dose of 4 mg daily for 12 weeks. During study 25373, safety was monitored by recording of adverse events and measurement of urinalysis and laboratory blood tests to assess fasting glucose, fasting insulin, and routine biochemistry and hematology parameters. At Week 12 or at the time of study termination, subjects underwent re-assessment of body composition via anthropometry measurements and dual photon absorptiometry (DXA) scanning. In addition, at study termination, measurements of insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I), insulin-like growth binding protein 3 (IGFBP-3), fasting lipid profile, and oral glucose tolerance testing were obtained.
NCT00896051
The purpose of this study is to determine the pharmacokinetics (how the body absorbs, distributes, metabolizes and eliminates a drug) (PK) of ETR when given with ATV/rtv and 1 NRTI in treatment experienced HIV-1 infected patients. In addition, safety, tolerability and anti-HIV effect of this regimen will also be studied. A total of 46 patients will be enrolled.
NCT01338883
This is a randomized, double-blind, double-dummy, 48-week, comparative study. Approximately 150 HIV-infected, treatment-naïve patients with CCR5-tropic virus will be stratified by HIV-1 RNA: ≥100,000 copies/mL versus \<100,000 copies/mL and will be randomized 2:2:1 to receive: * Arm A: CVC 100 mg (2 tablets, 50 mg each) QD + CVC matching placebo (2 tablets) QD + EFV matching placebo (1 tablet) QHS + FTC/TDF (1 tablet) QD. * Arm B: CVC 200 mg (4 tablets, 50 mg each) QD + EFV matching placebo (1 tablet) QHS + FTC/TDF (1 tablet) QD. * Arm C: CVC matching placebo (4 tablets) QD + EFV 600 mg (1 tablet) QHS + FTC/TDF (1 tablet) QD. Doses of both CVC/placebo and EFV/ placebo will be administered as double-blinded study drug. FTC/TDF will be administered as open-label study drug in a fixed-dose combination formulation (Truvada). CVC/placebo should be taken following breakfast; EFV should be taken on an empty stomach at bedtime. HIV-1 RNA levels and CD4+ and CD8+ cell counts, percentages, and ratios will be measured at every visit. Samples for viral tropism and resistance testing in case of virologic failure will be collected at Screening and each on-treatment visit. Biomarkers associated with inflammation and immune activation will be measured at Baseline (predose) and each study visit thereafter, with flow cytometry obtained at weeks 4, 12, 24, 48, and 52. Fasting metabolic indicators of glucose control (glucose and insulin for HOMA-IR, HbA1c) and fasting lipid profiles (HDL, LDL, total cholesterol, and triglycerides) will be measured at Baseline (predose) and Weeks 4, 12, 24, 48, and 52. Waist-to-hip ratios will be measured at Baseline and Weeks 24 and 48. Plasma samples will be collected and stored for possible future studies at Baseline (predose) and every visit thereafter.
NCT00073424
Taking anti-HIV medication consistently and properly is a critical issue for patients with HIV. Drug regimens are complex; when regimens are not taken properly, HIV can become resistant to the drugs. Taking anti-HIV medication properly leads to improved health. Children and adolescents with HIV face unique challenges to taking HIV medication properly. This study will look at the relationship between how children cope with the responsibility for taking medication and the child's language, memory, attention, behavior, and academic skills. This study is open to children and adolescents who are currently enrolled in the PACTG 219C study (Long-Term Effects of HIV Exposure and Infection in Children).
NCT00524368
The purpose of this study is to test if being treated with darunavir/ritonavir (DRV/rtv) 800/100 mg daily is as effective as being treated with DRV/rtv 600/100 mg twice daily, in early antiretroviral (ARV)-experienced patients when given along with selected optimized background regimen (OBR).
NCT00099359
Giving anti-HIV medications to babies born of HIV positive mothers right after birth can lower the babies' risk of contracting HIV. This study will assess the safety and efficacy of two different combinations of anti-HIV medications compared to a one drug standard regimen in preventing mother to baby transmission. The one drug standard treatment and two combinations to be studied are: 1) zidovudine, 2) zidovudine/nevirapine and 3) zidovudine/lamivudine/nelfinavir.
NCT00037076
The purpose of this study is to find out how many children who are infected with HIV are also infected with hepatitis C virus (HCV). HCV infection is a major health concern. HIV-infected adults who are co-infected with HCV appear to have more rapid HIV disease progression. There is little data on how widespread HCV is among children who are HIV-infected. Information from this study will help determine the need for future HCV studies. This study also will obtain blood samples for future testing for other hepatitis viruses such as hepatitis G virus (HGV or GB virus C).
NCT00827112
This is a pilot study to examine if the novel treatment regimen maraviroc plus boosted atazanavir can be expected to be safe and efficacious in treatment naive HIV infected patients. Based on the results from this study, a confirmatory phase 3 study may be conducted.
NCT00016601
The purpose of this study is to look at the level of depo-medroxyprogesterone acetate (DMPA or Depo-Provera) in the blood to see if is affected by certain anti-HIV drugs (nelfinavir \[NFV\], efavirenz \[EFV\], indinavir \[IDV\] in combination with ritonavir \[RTV\], and nevirapine \[NVP\]). This study will also look at the levels of these anti-HIV drugs to see if they are affected by DMPA. DMPA is a hormonal birth control method that is given as an injection. It is not known if taking DMPA together with anti-HIV drugs changes the amount of DMPA and/or the amount of anti-HIV drugs in the blood. If higher levels of DMPA occur, side effects may increase. If lower levels of anti-HIV drugs occur, the drugs may become less effective against HIV. This study will look at the levels of anti-HIV drugs and DMPA in the blood when these medications are used together.
NCT00000883
The purpose of this study is to see if there are any changes in sugar and fat levels in the blood when patients take anti-HIV therapy for many years. Another goal is to test memory and mental concentrations to determine if anti-HIV drugs protect the brain from damage caused by HIV. (The purpose of this study has been changed from the original version.) HIV-infected patients with low CD4 cell counts are at risk for getting opportunistic (AIDS-related) infections. CD4 cells are cells of the immune system that help fight infection. Anti-HIV therapy may increase CD4 counts, which may lead to a decrease in AIDS-related infections. Problems that anti-HIV therapy is associated with include metabolic problems, neurologic problems, abnormal opportunistic infections, and cancer. Patients in ACTG 362 have been exposed to anti-HIV therapy longer than any other large group in the ACTG. These patients appear to benefit from their therapy, but also suffer problems from it. Observation of these patients should provide more information about long-term anti-HIV treatment and may detect unexpected problems. (This study as been changed. More information about the reasons for conducting this study has been added.)
NCT00310843
Attempt to identify genetic polymorphisms in interrogated pathways which may be associated with symptomatic hepatotoxicity or severe cutaneous toxicity observed in case patients within the first 8 weeks of nevirapine therapy.
NCT00001082
To evaluate the safety and efficacy of adefovir dipivoxil in prolonging survival of patients with advanced HIV disease. In CMV prophylaxis substudy: To evaluate the efficacy of adefovir dipivoxil in preventing the development of CMV end-organ disease in patients with advanced HIV coinfected with CMV. The optimal treatment for HIV infection and the prevention of CMV disease has not been identified. Currently available antiretroviral therapies are hampered by both significant toxicities and the development of resistance. In addition, agents for preventing CMV disease, such as oral ganciclovir, are complicated by poor bioavailability and decreased compliance secondary to toxicities. Moreover, discordant results have been reported regarding the effectiveness of oral ganciclovir for preventing CMV disease. There is a need for newer agents with anti-HIV and anti-herpesvirus activity that have good pharmacokinetic and safety profiles and that will be well tolerated by patients. Adefovir dipivoxil is an oral pro-drug of PMEA, a nucleoside analog with activity against a broad spectrum of retroviruses and herpesviruses, including important human pathogens, such as HIV-1, HIV-2 and CMV. Due to its anti-HIV and anti-herpesvirus activity, adefovir dipivoxil may be able to decrease the incidence of opportunistic herpesvirus infections and prolong survival in patients with advanced HIV infection.
NCT00000925
The purpose of this study is to determine whether a high-quality protein food supplement will help HIV-positive patients maintain, and possibly gain, muscle mass. Many HIV-positive patients lose weight that they are then unable to regain. This may be because patients are not eating enough protein or are not eating the right kinds of protein. The protein eaten in foods (such as meat, eggs, or beans) may not be able to make up for the amount of protein lost due to HIV infection. This study gives patients high-quality protein food supplements to help them maintain and/or gain weight.
NCT00000666
To evaluate pyrimethamine as a prophylactic agent against toxoplasmic encephalitis in individuals who are coinfected with HIV and latent Toxoplasma gondii. Toxoplasmic encephalitis is a major cause of illness and death in AIDS patients. Standard treatment for toxoplasmic encephalitis is to combine pyrimethamine and sulfadiazine. Continuous treatment is necessary to prevent recurrence of the disease, but constant use of pyrimethamine/sulfadiazine is associated with toxicity. Clindamycin has been shown to be effective in treatment of toxoplasmic encephalitis in animal studies. This study evaluates pyrimethamine as a preventive treatment against toxoplasmic encephalitis (per 3/26/91 amendment, clindamycin arm was discontinued).
NCT00043888
Antiretroviral Therapy (ART) naive subjects will be enrolled in this clinical research study to test the safety and tolerability of fosamprenavir with or without ritonavir in combination TRIZIVIR and COMBIVIR. Subjects will receive 24 weeks of therapy.
NCT01875952
The purpose of this study is to determine of once identified to the subjects infected with human immunodeficiency virus (positive VIH), to diagnose latent Tuberculosis, and to treat her with isoniazid for six months, measuring the production of Interferon range pre and posttreatment, to evaluate this way the result of the treatment on the immune response
NCT00414518
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and effectiveness of an anti-HIV drug regimen followed by treatment interruption in people recently infected with HIV. This study will also compare the effects of a treatment regimen including treatment interruption with a treatment plan based on clinical indicators.
NCT00035581
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).
NCT00035893
This is an open-label, prospective, randomized, controlled study of the safety and efficacy including clinical, immunologic, and virologic assessments of adding Ampligen to a Strategic Therapeutic Intervention (STI) of HAART in patients with plasma HIV RNA \< 50 copies/ml (PCR) and CD4 levels \> 400.
