NCT01771107
This pilot phase I/II trial studies the side effects and the best dose of brentuximab vedotin when given together with combination chemotherapy and to see how well they work in treating patients with stage II-IV human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-associated Hodgkin lymphoma. Brentuximab vedotin is a monoclonal antibody, called brentuximab, linked to a chemotherapy drug called vedotin. Brentuximab attaches to CD30-positive cancer cells in a targeted way and delivers vedotin to kill them. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as doxorubicin hydrochloride, vinblastine sulfate, and dacarbazine, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving brentuximab vedotin together with combination chemotherapy may kill more cancer cells.

NCT05896423
This study will develop HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) awareness materials for and with Black cis women and gather feedback on the usefulness of these materials at health care sites. The investigators will also use electronic medical records (EMR) to compare the number of Black cis women who initiate PrEP before and after the awareness materials are piloted, at the two partner research sites, Howard Brown Health and Planned Parenthood of IL. Additional federally qualified health centers and family planning clinics will review the materials and complete a survey on acceptability.
NCT05123144
Among people living with HIV (PLWH), positive affect is uniquely associated with lower levels of depression, slower disease progression, better adherence to medication, and higher likelihood of achieving suppressed viral load, independent of negative affect. In two randomized controlled trials with PLWH (R01 MH084723; R01 DA033854), the investigators have shown significant beneficial effects of an intervention that aims to increase positive affect on viral suppression and psychological well being. The investigators also have demonstrated feasibility, acceptability, and early efficacy of a self-guided, online-delivered, positive affect skills intervention for PLWH (R34 MH101265). Now, in collaboration with the AIDS Foundation of Chicago (AFC), the investigators propose to conduct a Hybrid Type II effectiveness-implementations study of a stepped wedge cluster randomized trial (SW-CRT) of mental health screening and referral to ORCHID (Optimizing Resilience and Coping with HIV through Internet Delivery). The proposed study was initiated by AFC, which developed the mental health screening and selected the SW-CRT design as an ethical way to study implementation while ensuring that all clients with elevated depression receive the intervention. Mental health screening + ORCHID will be implemented through all medical case managers (MCMs) at 17 Ryan White-funded clinics in Chicago. The investigators will use the RE-AIM framework to structure the effectiveness and implementation outcomes and the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research (CFIR) to understand the implementation outcomes at the patient and clinic levels. The specific aims are to: (1) Operationalize an implementation facilitation strategy to link mental health screening with referral to ORCHID through MCMs at Ryan White-funded clinics in Chicago; (2) Determine the effectiveness of screening + ORCHID for improving depression, retention in care, and viral suppression, among 300 PLWH receiving care at 17 Ryan White clinical sites, using a stepped wedge cluster randomized design. Depression is the primary outcome and retention in care and viral suppression at both the individual and clinic level are the secondary outcomes; and (3) Evaluate the implementation of screening + ORCHID and iteratively refine the strategy for subsequent steps. The proposed research holds significant promise for advancing current knowledge on how best to integrate and respond to mental health screening in Ryan White clinics. Data from the hybrid trial will result in a sustainable, scalable program that can be disseminated in Ryan White clinics nationwide, thus holding significant promise for advancing Chicago toward goals in the National Ending the HIV Epidemic Plan.

NCT04519970
COMEBACK is an investigator-initiated, 48-week study. The study will be conducted in 100 persons living with HIV (PLWH) who have been off ART for two or more weeks. All enrolled participants will be prescribed Biktarvy, if determined appropriate upon review of past historical resistance tests, for use throughout the study period. Participants will also complete a series of Patient Reported Outcomes (PROs) at screening and be assigned one of three tiers of case management intervention (Piggyback, Got Your Back, Backbone), with each tier increasing in intensity regarding intervention techniques and options provided. Participants will be assessed for virologic suppression, retention in care, and PROS throughout study follow up and at study end.
NCT04276935

NCT04618315
Satisfaction and benefit from hearing aids fit using two patient self fit methods will be compared against those fit using audiology-based best practices. Individuals between the ages of 50 and 79 years of age will be randomly assigned to one of three fitting methods. Benefit and satisfaction will be evaluated six weeks and six months after the initial fitting.
NCT04840199
This was an open-label, controlled study, conducted at US sites to evaluate the anti-inflammatory effectiveness of the study drug letermovir in adults with HIV and asymptomatic cytomegalovirus (CMV) who were on antiretroviral therapy (ART)-mediated suppression. Participants were randomly assigned to receive either letermovir once daily or no anti-CMV treatment, for 48 weeks. The primary hypothesis of this study was that letermovir would cause a greater reduction in plasma soluble receptor for tumor necrosis factor type II (sTNFRII) levels than no anti-CMV treatment at weeks 46/48.
NCT04077151
To address the critical scientific gaps in PrEP safety for transgender youth and to plan for appropriate implementation of PrEP in transgender youth communities, the study will be conducted in 3 integrated phases. In Phase 1, a pharmacokinetic (PK) study exploring the interactions of cs-HT for both TW and TM youth on TDF/FTC will be conducted. Simultaneously, in Phase 2, ethnographic data via focus groups (FGs) and in-depth interviews (IDIs) to inform the development of a tailored intervention to improve uptake and adherence to PrEP for transgender youth will be collected. In Phase 3, a small demonstration trial of PrEP use in transgender youth, utilizing the ethnographically developed intervention to improve uptake and adherence, while also monitoring renal and bone safety outcomes will be implemented. The project has the following important specific aims: Aim 1: To evaluate the differential PK of TDF/FTC in a cohort of transgender youth on cs-HT by conducting a PK trial of daily TDF/FTC among 24 TW taking estradiol and 24 TM taking testosterone (ages 15-24 years) using video-based directly observed therapy (DOT) to insure daily adherence and maximize drug exposure. Aim 2: To develop a culturally, developmentally, and gender-affirmative intervention to increase uptake of and adherence to PrEP among TW and TM youth that is grounded in theory (Information-Motivation-Behavioral Skills Model of Behavior Change, Gender Affirmation, Empowerment Theory) and incorporates the PK data from Aim 1. Investigators will conduct FGs with young TW (N=20-30) and TM (N=20-30) and conduct IDIs with participants from the PK study (Total N=10-14). Investigators will solicit continuous input and feedback from TW and TM on the project's Youth Advisory Board. Aim 3: To conduct a small randomized controlled trial within a PrEP demonstration project comparing the newly developed intervention with standard of care (SOC) in TW (N=50) and TM (N=50) ages 15-24 years.
NCT01839734
The use of lubiprostone will decrease the levels of immune activation in HIV-infected subjects with incomplete CD4+ T-cell recovery with antiretroviral therapy (ART). * Lubiprostone will decrease levels of translocated gut microbial products in HIV-infected subjects with incomplete CD4+ T-cell recovery with ART. * The decrease in levels of translocated gut microbial products will be associated with a decline in the levels of immune activation in HIV-infected subjects with incomplete CD4+ T-cell recovery with ART.
NCT01605084
The purpose of this study is to determine the proportion of subjects with HIV-1 RNA \< 50 c/mL at Week 48 in patients who failed their first line therapy containing a non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI) or an integrase inhibitor
NCT02831673
This study will compare safety, efficacy, and tolerability of a two drug regimen of dolutegravir (DTG) plus (+) lamivudine (3TC) administered once daily with DTG plus two nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (Tenofovir \[TDF\]/Emtricitabine \[FTC\] fixed dose combination \[FDC\]) administered once daily in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) 1 infected adult participants that have not previously received antiretroviral therapy. The study is designed to demonstrate the non-inferior antiviral activity of DTG plus 3TC regimen to that of DTG plus TDF/FTC FDC and will characterise the long term antiviral activity, tolerability and safety of DTG plus 3TC through Week 148. Approximately, 700 participants will be randomised 1:1 to receive DTG + 3TC or DTG + TDF/FTC FDC. Participants will be stratified by screening HIV 1 ribonucleotide nucleic acid (RNA) levels and by screening CD4+ (cluster of differentiation 4) cell count.

NCT02797171
This study will evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics, and antiviral activity of VRC-HIVMAB060-00-AB (VRC01) and VRC-HIVMAB080-00-AB (VRC01LS) in the serum and mucosa of healthy, HIV-uninfected adults.
NCT02595866
This phase I trial studies the side effects of pembrolizumab in treating patients with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and malignant neoplasms that have come back (relapsed), do not respond to treatment (refractory), or have distributed over a large area in the body (disseminated). Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread.
NCT05547048
The purpose of this 2-site (CT, AL) study is to test innovative interventions to reduce stigma and improve the pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) and opioid use disorder (OUD) care continua in women involved in the criminal justice system (WICJ). This study evaluates a newly validated PrEP decision aid and eHealth for integrated PrEP and MOUD compared to a decision aid-only for WICJ with OUD.
NCT04212091
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and antiviral activity of the monoclonal antibody PGT121.414.LS administered alone and in combination with VRC07-523LS via intravenous or subcutaneous infusions in healthy, HIV-uninfected adult participants.
NCT06872307
The investigators will conduct a fully powered randomized controlled trial (RCT) to test the effect of a patient navigation intervention for Black/African American (B/AA) men who have sex with men (MSM) on PrEP initiation, adherence and retention in care. B/AA men who have sex with men (MSM) are disproportionately impacted by the HIV/AIDS epidemic in the United States. Pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP), a once daily medication, can dramatically reduce HIV acquisition risk. However, social and structural barriers have contributed to suboptimal PrEP initiation, adherence, and retention in care among B/AA MSM. Our prior NIH-funded pilot study (R34MH109371; MPI: Nunn, Chan, Mena) developed and evaluated an Intervention to Retain and Adhere MSM in PrEP (RAMP-IT-UP), a brief strengths-based patient navigation program to enhance PrEP care outcomes among young B/AA MSM. The intervention was found to be highly acceptable among B/AA MSM and demonstrated preliminary effectiveness. Compared to control participants, RAMP-IT-UP participants were statistically more likely to initiate PrEP and adhere to PrEP based on pharmacy fill data and PrEP blood levels. Additionally, RAMP-IT-UP participants were more likely to be retained in PrEP care at the 3-month and 6-month clinical visits. Specific Aim #1 of this study will conduct a fully powered randomized controlled trial (RCT to estimate the effectiveness of RAMP-IT-UP in improving PrEP adherence and care outcomes among B/AA MSM in real-world community health center settings (CHCs). Specific Aim #2 will estimate the cost-effectiveness of RAMP-IT-UP among B/AA MSM attending CHCs compared to standard of care. The investigators will also determine the cost-effectiveness of differing levels of intensity of navigation services to prevent HIV based on data collected in Specific Aim #1. Our goal is to develop a cost-effective intervention that enhances PrEP care outcomes and reduces HIV incidence for B/AA MSM which will be relevant for CHCs across the US. The long-term goal of this work is to decrease HIV incidence among B/AA MSM, which aligns with federal Ending the HIV Epidemic and National HIV/AIDS Strategy goals. This application is led by an experienced team of investigators with a proven track record conducting HIV, PrEP and disparities research in real-world clinical settings.
