NCT05069688
Tuberculosis (TB) is the leading cause of death among children with HIV, yet insufficient data are available on the pharmacokinetics of newer HIV/TB cotreatment strategies in children. Current WHO-recommended rifampicin dosages result in low concentrations in most children, and high-dose rifampicin may improve outcomes and shorten treatment duration. Yet the impact of high-dose rifampicin on dolutegravir exposures has not been examined in children. This study aims to evaluate the safety and pharmacokinetics of dolutegravir twice daily among HIV/TB coinfected children receiving standard-dose and high-dose rifampicin.
NCT04206878
This study aims to assess the feasibility and utility of birth testing using point-of-care (POC) testing in maternity settings in Eswatini.
NCT03824067
This mixed methods study will utilize a randomized step-wedge design to assess the impact of point-of-care (POC) versus conventional early infant diagnosis (EID) on key outcomes including timely return of results to caregivers and time to initiation on treatment for HIV-infected infants. Data will be collected through longitudinal clinical follow-up and medical chart extraction of routine records and lab forms. Feasibility and acceptability data will be collected through interviews with mothers/caregivers of HIV-exposed infants, and community focus groups.
