NCT00340548
Background: Over 80% of the hemophiliac population who became infected with HIV prior to 1985 are also co-infected with HCV. Thus, hemophiliacs represent an important population for studies of the natural history of these chronic viral infections. Moreover, the high rate of co-infection makes it an ideal group for assessing the interaction between the viruses and the relationship between viral specific immune responses and clinical progression. Although the hemophiliac poulation is unique, co-infection by these chronic viral pathogens is becoming increasingly common, particularly amongst intravenous drug users, who account for approximately 25% of the HIV-1 epidemic in the United States. Objectives: The aim of this study is to determine if polymorphism in the promoter region of TH1 and Th2 cytokines are associated with (1) intracellular cytokines levels in CD4 + Tcells, (2) Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) and Hepatitis C virus (HCV) viral loads, and (3) clinical progression of HIV1 to AIDS in hemophiliacs. Eligibility: The current proposal will investigate host genetic factors related to HIV-1 and HCV immunopathogenesis by studying children and adolescents enrolled in the Hemophilia Growth and Development Study (HGDS). Design: This study is in collaboration with the principle investigators of the Hemophilia Growth and Development Study (HGDS) as part of a grant "Pathogenesis of HIV and HCV in Hemophilia: HGDS-3" with funding support by NIH/NICHD for the period 9/25/01 through 8/31/2005. This multicenter, United States study represents a well-characterized, prospectively followed cohort of HCV-infected hemophiliacs, of whom 207 are HIV-1 co-infected. Enrollment of the hemophiliac cohort was completed between 3/89 and 6/90. The final observation of the cohort (follow-up 16) was concluded during 7/98. No new samples or clinical data will be collected on this population. The LGD plays two roles in this project: (1) an administrative role overseeing the withdrawal, handling, and transport of samples from the HGDS/LGD and central repositories at the NCI-Frederick, and (2) a scientific role continuing investigations to determine the role of host genetic factors in Th1 and Th2 immune response and regulation of HCV and HIV viral replication..
NCT02706717
The purpose of the study was to evaluate whether the probiotic Visbiome Extra Strength reduces inflammation in HIV-infected men and women when compared to a placebo (inactive medication like a dummy pill). The study evaluated whether taking Visbiome Extra Strength by mouth for 24 weeks was safe and well-tolerated for HIV-infected persons on antiretroviral therapy (ART). Probiotics are germs such as yeast or bacteria that are found in food and supplements that are used to improve the health of the digestive system. Many people refer to probiotics as "helpful bacteria." These bacteria live in the body and help the body work normally. In some medical conditions, including HIV infection, helpful bacteria are replaced with bacteria that can change the normal intestinal function and increase inflammation. The investigators tested whether giving a probiotic restored normal intestinal function and decreased inflammation.

NCT01780506
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of elvitegravir/cobicistat/emtricitabine/tenofovir alafenamide (E/C/F/TAF) fixed-dose combination (FDC) versus elvitegravir/cobicistat/emtricitabine/tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (E/C/F/TDF) FDC in HIV-1 positive, antiretroviral treatment-naive adults.
NCT02073656
This study will evaluate the antiviral efficacy, safety, and tolerability of ledipasvir/sofosbuvir (LDV/SOF) fixed-dose combination (FDC) administered for 12 weeks in hepatitis C virus (HCV) treatment-naive and treatment-experienced (including treatment intolerant) participants with chronic genotype 1 or 4 HCV infection who are co-infected with HIV-1. Participants who experience confirmed post-treatment virologic failure (relapse) at or before Posttreatment Week 24 may be eligible to be enrolled in the Retreatment Substudy to receive LDV/SOF plus ribavirin (RBV) for 24 weeks.
NCT01579695

NCT00118898
Currently, the preferred anti-HIV regimens used in the United States consist of two nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs) and the nonnucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI) efavirenz (EFV). However, with new anti-HIV drugs being approved, alternative regimens need to be tested to determine if new drug combinations have increased effectiveness in treating HIV. The purpose of this study is to test the safety, tolerability, and effectiveness of four different regimens in HIV-infected adults who have never taken anti-HIV drugs.
NCT00084136
This study compared 3 different three-drug combinations in HIV infected individuals starting their first HIV treatment regimens. Participants were recruited from resource-limited areas in Africa, Asia, South America, Haiti, and also from the United States. The study hypothesis was each of the once daily combinations (PI based, or NNRTI based) would not have inferior efficacy compared to the twice daily NNRTI based combination.
NCT02858401
The primary objectives of this study are to evaluate the safety and tolerability of escalating, multiple doses of vesatolimod (formerly GS-9620) in HIV-1 infected virologically suppressed adults on antiretroviral therapy (ART) and to evaluate the virologic effect of vesatolimod as measured by changes in plasma HIV-1 RNA.
NCT02415595

NCT01543958
HIV-infected people can have an increase in inflammation in their body organs, even after taking anti-HIV medicines. Sevelamer carbonate is used to bind phosphate in dialysis patients. It can also bind endotoxin in the gut and lowers endotoxin levels in the blood of dialysis patients. Sevelamer carbonate decreases the inflammation endotoxin causes in dialysis patients. A5296 is a phase II, single-arm study to evaluate the effect of 8 weeks of sevelamer carbonate administration on markers of microbial translocation and T-cell activation in the blood in chronically HIV-infected subjects not receiving ART.
NCT01335698
The purpose of this study is to describe the safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics of a regimen of atazanavir powder boosted with ritonavir and an optimized dual nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor in pediatric patients aged ≥3 months to \<11 years.
NCT03202992
This study evaluates the use of ABI-1968, a topical cream, in the treatment of anal precancerous lesions in adults with and without human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection.
NCT00103532
Risk behaviors and their associated adverse health outcomes are becoming increasingly problematic among HIV-infected youth. This study is being conducted to test whether a brief motivational enhancement (ME) intervention will help reduce health risk behaviors (drug and alcohol use, sexual risk behavior, poor adherence to medications) among HIV+ youth.
NCT01177059
The purpose of this Observational Study is long term follow-up of the Human Immunodeficiency Virus -1 (HIV-1) infected patients who have received a gene therapy product (anti-HIV-1 Ribozyme \[OZ1\]) as part of an earlier phase 2 trial. Patients are seen twice yearly until 5 years from initial infusion of study drug has elapsed and then yearly until withdrawal or study completion. The study will monitor for and record any ill effects from the gene therapy product to provide long term safety information.
