NCT04950712
The aim of this study is to assess performance of using healthcare tools to understand genital Herpes Simplex Virus-2 (HSV-2) in patients ≥ 18 years of age in the United States and Europe. More specifically, the study aims to evaluate patient-reported outcome and quality-of-life endpoints as well as the performance study procedures in a decentralised setting. Ultimately, this study will allow generating additional real-world evidence (RWE) on patterns of recurrences and other key parameters.
NCT00486200
A study of ASP2151 in subjects with recurrent outbreaks of genital herpes.
NCT02852876
The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of single rising doses of ASP2151 under fasted condition in healthy male subjects. The study will also evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK) of a single dose of ASP2151 under fasted versus fed conditions in healthy male subjects.
NCT00405821
This study will determine whether acyclovir, a medicine used to treat herpes simplex virus 2 (HSV-2), can slow down the progression (worsening) of HIV disease in people with both HIV and HSV-2 infections. HSV-2 increases the amount of HIV virus in the blood of infected people and may make HIV progress faster. The study will evaluate: "Whether people who take acyclovir can avoid antiretroviral treatment until later in their lives "Whether people who take acyclovir get fewer genital ulcers "How well people are able to take acyclovir and any side effects they experience from it "Differences in the amount of HIV virus in the blood of patients who are and are not taking acyclovir, and how HIV/AIDS is different in these patients. People 18 years of age and older living in the Rakai district of Uganda who are infected with both HIV (early stage disease) and HSV-2 may be eligible for this study. Participants are randomly assigned to take the study drug, acyclovir, or a placebo (look-alike pill with no active ingredient) daily for 2 years. During this time, they visit the clinic once a month for a routine physical examination. Patients who develop genital ulcers or complications of HIV are treated for the problem, and patients whose HIV disease progresses, requiring them to begin antiretroviral therapy, are treated accordingly.
NCT00076232
Genital herpes (HSV-2) is the most common cause of genital sores worldwide, and the presence of genital sores is a significant risk factor for becoming infected with HIV. This study will test the effectiveness of twice-daily dosing of acyclovir, a commonly prescribed anti-herpes drug, in preventing HIV infection in HSV-2 infected women who sleep with men (WSM) and men who sleep with men (MSM). Study hypothesis: Given that genital herpes is a significant risk factor to HIV acquisition, twice-daily HSV-2 suppressive therapy - 400 mg of acyclovir - will prevent HIV infection among high risk, HSV-2 seropositive WSM and MSM.
NCT00122525
Observational studies suggest that male circumcision may provide protection against HIV-1 infection. A randomized, controlled, intervention trial was conducted in a general population of South Africa to test this hypothesis.
NCT00158483
Herpes virus type 2 (HSV-2) infection - as a cofactor of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) transmission - can be targeted by anti-herpetic specific drugs, either as a continuous prophylactic treatment during its asymptomatic shedding phase, or as an episodic treatment during clinically-apparent genital ulcerations. The main objective of this trial will be to demonstrate that acyclovir treatment given during clinical episodes (primary infection or recurrences) can reduce genital shedding of HIV, thereby contributing to a reduction of HIV infectiousness of dually infected individuals (HIV+/HSV+).
NCT00158509
Genital herpes is a long-life sexually transmitted diseases which infects a large proportion of women in Africa. Its clinical symptoms are painful sores on the genitals, which heals after a few days. HIV infection can worsen genital herpes. In turn, it is possible that genital herpes increases the quantity of HIV secreted at the genital level in women infected by the 2 viruses. This study is dedicated to verify this hypothesis.
