This study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy darunavir/cobicistat/emtricitabine/tenofovir alafenamide (D/C/F/TAF) fixed dose combination (FDC) tablet versus darunavir (DRV)+cobicistat (COBI)+emtricitabine (FTC)/tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) in HIV-1 infected, antiretroviral treatment-naive adults as determined by the achievement of HIV-1 RNA \< 50 copies/mL at Week 24.
NCT00543725
The purpose of this trial is to compare the effectiveness, safety and tolerability of TMC278 given at a dose of 25 mg once daily versus efavirenz (EFV) at a dose of 600 mg once daily, when combined with a background regimen containing 2 nucleoside/nucleotide reverse transcriptase inhibitors ( investigator choice of ABC/3TC, TDF/FTC or AZT/3TC) in HIV-1 infected patients who have not yet taken any anti-HIV drugs. The following evaluations will be done: antiviral activity, immunologic changes, and viral geno-/phenotype evolution, relationship of Pharmacokinetics (PK) and PK/Pharmacodynamics and Medical resource utilization and treatment adherence.
NCT01409655
Our proposal "Centralized Off-Site Adherence Enhancement Program" or "CARE" will develop and test an effective behavioral adherence intervention program for HIV patients with alcohol and/or substance abuse problems. This project will develop and pilot test a novel program to help patients with alcohol and/or substance abuse problems take their medications as prescribed. The intervention will be delivered by phone, and utilize electronic monitoring of medication-taking, so patients can be treated by therapists from any geographic distance. To safely monitor data collected for this study, we have laid out a detailed Data Safety Monitoring Plan, which will cover all the issues required by NIDA.
NCT00892437
The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of a regimen containing cobicistat-boosted atazanavir (ATV+COBI) plus emtricitabine/tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (Truvada®; FTC/TDF) versus ritonavir-boosted atazanavir (ATV+RTV) plus FTC/TDF in HIV-1 infected, antiretroviral treatment-naive adults. Participants will be randomized in a 2:1 ratio. Randomization will be stratified by HIV-1 RNA level (≤ 100,000 copies/mL or \> 100,000 copies/mL) at screening. After Week 48, participants will continue to take their blinded study drug and attend visits every 12 weeks until treatment assignments are unblinded, at which point all participants will return for an unblinding visit and be given the option to participate in an open-label rollover extension and receive ATV+COBI+FTC/TDF until COBI tablets become commercially available, or until Gilead Sciences elects to terminate the study.
NCT00361257
The purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness of minocycline, an antibiotic, in lessening the decreased mental function sometimes caused by anti-HIV drugs.
NCT01515813
Since people started taking HIV medications, illnesses related to AIDS have decreased, but other serious illnesses like heart disease (heart attacks) and certain kinds of cancer have increased. Studies show that HIV causes changes in the lining of the arteries and also causes inflammation (irritation) inside the body that may play a role in diseases like heart attacks and strokes. The levels of inflammation and artery lining health can also affect how well your brain works. These changes cannot be felt, but can be measured. Artery lining health can be looked at with a test that uses a blood pressure cuff on your arm to see how the artery responds when air is let in and out of the cuff. An ultrasound (machine that uses sound waves) is used to look at the artery during the test. This test is called Flow Mediated Dilation or FMD for short. Inflammation can be checked with blood tests (blood tests that measure this irritation inside the body that you cannot feel). HIV medications can improve the artery lining health and can partially lower levels of inflammation in the blood; however, these levels of inflammation may not be able to return back to normal. Pravastatin sodium is a medication that is approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for treating high cholesterol. Pravastatin sodium has also been able to improve the health of the lining of the arteries and lower the level of inflammation in people with other diseases, but has not been studied or approved for this purpose in people who have HIV. This research study will look at the effects of two types of medications used separately or together on the health of the lining of arteries and levels of inflammation in the blood: Atripla (a HIV medication) and pravastatin sodium. This study will also look at the effects of Atripla and pravastatin sodium on cholesterol levels, tests that measure how well you can think and calculate (tests of neurocognitive function), and at the effects of Atripla on the levels of pravastatin sodium in the blood.
NCT01345630
The purpose of this study is to assess whether maraviroc administered once daily is non-inferior to emtricitabine/tenofovir also administered once daily each in combination with darunavir/ritonavir in the treatment of antiretroviral-naive patients as evaluated at Week 48 of treatment.
NCT00851799
The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) guidelines recommend that HIV-infected people who have never received anti-HIV therapy be treated with a triple drug regimen (commonly called combination antiretroviral therapy, cART). Since the introduction of cART, morbidity and mortality among HIV-infected patients has been dramatically reduced. However, metabolic, skeletal, and cardiovascular diseases have been increasingly reported among HIV-infected patients and may be attributable, in part, to the direct effects of cART. Much of our understanding of the development of these diseases, risk factors, and consequences of these disorders has been derived from clinical studies of HIV-infected persons receiving older antiretroviral agents. A5260s was designed to examine the contributions of HIV-disease related factors and impact of newer antiretroviral drugs on the development of metabolic (such as blood vessels, blood sugar, cholesterol), skeletal, and cardiovascular diseases in people who have never received anti-HIV therapy. A5260s is a prospective substudy of a phase III randomized clinical trial A5257 (see ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT00811954). A5257 was designed to look at different combinations of anti-HIV drugs that do not contain the medication efavirenz (EFV) and how well these drug combinations work to decrease the amount of HIV in the blood and to allow immune system recovery in people who have never received anti-HIV therapy. A5257 also examined drug tolerability and safety for the various drug combinations.
NCT00040157
To determine safety and efficacy of ACH-126,443 on the treatment of adults with HIV infection who have modestly detectable viral load while on stable triple combination antiretroviral therapy including 3TC.
NCT01252940
The purpose of this randomized, open-label, multicenter, active-controlled Phase 3b study is to evaluate the noninferiority of the emtricitabine/rilpivirine/tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (FTC/RPV/TDF) single-tablet regimen (STR; also referred to as fixed-dose regimen or fixed-dose tablet) relative to regimens consisting of a ritonavir-boosted protease inhibitor (PI+RTV) and two nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs) in virologically suppressed, HIV-1 infected subjects. The FTC/RPV/TDF STR could offer an attractive treatment option to patients who wish to simplify dosing by reducing pill burden or to improve the tolerability of their treatment. Participants will be randomized into 2 groups, the FTC/RPV/TDF STR group, in which participants will switch treatment regimens at the start of the study, and the Stay on Baseline Regimen (SBR)/Delayed Switch group, in which participants will remain on their baseline regimen during the first 24 weeks of the study (designed to provide an initial active control), and may switch to the FTC/RPV/TDF STR at the Week 24 visit. After the 48-week study analysis period, participants may continue to receive the FTC/RPV/TDF STR per protocol before switching to a commercially available source.
NCT00102986
Men's and women's bodies may process anti-HIV drugs differently. The purpose of this study is to determine the differences in blood levels of soft gel capsules and tablets of lopinavir/ritonavir (LPV/r) in HIV infected men and women.
NCT00233883
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the tolerability of a subcutaneous needle-free injection device used to administer Fuzeon, compared with the standard needle/syringe supplied with commercial Fuzeon. The anticipated time on study treatment is \<3 months, and the target sample size is \<100 individuals.
NCT02134886
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of erlotinib hydrochloride in treating non-small cell lung cancer that has spread to other parts of the body or cannot be removed by surgery in patients with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. Erlotinib hydrochloride may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Erlotinib hydrochloride is a standard drug used for treating lung cancer, however, it is not yet known whether it is safe to give erlotinib hydrochloride to patients who also have HIV infection or not.
NCT01667978
The purpose of this study is to learn if women taking the atazanavir and ritonavir have lower levels of a birth control medication called norethindrone. Norethindrone (also called the mini pill) is an FDA (Food and Drug Administration) approved progestin-only birth control pill used to prevent pregnancy. Norethindrone is the standard medication used in women who take the progestin only pill to prevent pregnancy. There are other birth control pills which contain different medications. The investigators want to learn if HIV medications (atazanavir and ritonavir) make the blood level of this birth control pill higher or lower. If the levels of norethindrone are too low it may not work to prevent pregnancy. The investigators also hope to learn about changes in the vaginal fluids and cervical fluids when women are taking this birth control pill.
NCT00110877
Study TMC114-C214 is a randomized, controlled, open-label trial to compare the efficacy, safety and tolerability of TMC114 boosted with low dose ritonavir (RTV) versus Kaletra (LPV)/RTV in lopinavir-naïve treatment-experienced HIV-1 infected patients.
NCT01844414
The purpose of this study is to conduct a prospective, three-group study that randomly assigns 700 parolees, in a community residential drug treatment program, to enter one of three groups: 1) a PCPC (Parolee Comprehensive Care + Phone Coaching Program), which includes nurse case management and specialized hepatitis education sessions and the hepatitis A/B (HAV/HBV) vaccination series (to all eligible) and coach-facilitated mentoring (mostly by cell-phone); 2) a Parolee Brief Hepatitis Education + HBV vaccination + Phone Coaching (PBCP) Program, which includes brief hepatitis/HIV education, HAV/HBV vaccination and coach-facilitated mentoring; or 3) a Usual Care (UC) control program, which includes brief general health information, one-on-one coaching and the HAV/HBV vaccine.
NCT02539576
The abacavir (ABC)/dolutegravir (DTG)/lamivudine (3TC) 600 milligrams (mg)/50 mg/300 mg fixed-dose combination (FDC) tablet is currently approved in the United States (US) and Europe. Although the pharmacokinetics (PK), safety and tolerability of ABC/DTG/3TC FDC tablets have been extensively studied in subjects not of Japanese heritage, these parameters have not been exclusively assessed in Japanese subjects. To support the marketing application in Japan, this single-dose, open-label study will characterize the PK, safety and tolerability of ABC/DTG/3TC FDC tablet in adult Japanese healthy subjects. A maximum of 12 subjects will be enrolled such that approximately 10 evaluable subjects complete the study. The study will consist of a screening, treatment phase (single oral dose under the fasted state) and follow-up visit (within 7-14 days of the last PK sample collected). The total duration of the study for each subject will be approximately up to 48 days.
NCT01303575
This study will evaluate the effect of an American Indian/Alaska Native (AI/AN) adaptation of the It's Your Game…Keep It Real (IYG) intervention, relative to a comparison condition on sexual behavior outcomes and psychosocial variables for middle school aged youth (12 - 14 years old). The original IYG program was designed for students in Houston middle schools to help students delay sexual initiation and if sexually active, use condoms and contraception. The present study will adapt the existing IYG program for an AI/AN youth cohort; the original IYG curriculum will be transferred into a web-based format and modified to incorporate additional culturally-relevant components. The primary hypothesis to be tested is: (1) students who receive the web-based curriculum will delay sexual activity relative to those who receive standard care. The major dependent variable is the proportion of students initiating sexual activity. Secondary hypotheses will examine the effect of the web-based curriculum on specific types of sex and psychosocial variables related to sexual risk-taking behavior. This project will also examine the effect of the intervention on the proportion of students who are sexually active, number of times students engage in unprotected sexual intercourse, and students' number of sexual partners.
NCT00159224
This study will assess the safety, tolerability and antiviral activity of a simplified PI-based treatment regimen (Kaletra,ä) compared to conventional HAART regimens in patients infected with HIV-1 who are on their first boosted-PI antiretroviral treatment regimen. The potency of the antiviral activity of Kaletra has been clearly demonstrated in a wide spectrum of patients in a number of different clinical trials.6-9 The durable viral suppression seen after 4 years of therapy10 proves that it can provide effective, long-term treatment for people with HIV-1. Data from one of these trials (M97-720),6 an ongoing Phase II study of lopinavir/ritonavir in combination with NRTIs suggests there may be a role for monoclass therapy with Kaletra in the treatment of HIV-1-infection.
NCT00487188
To assess the efficacy of enfuvirtide (Fuzeon) added to HAART compared to treatment with HAART alone in achieving and maintaining viral load suppression.
