Effectiveness

How Videx Affects Patients

Alcohol damages cells by drying them out and breaking down their inner structure. This is why it works as an antibacterial and antifungal. If injected close to nerves, it can cause inflammation and nerve damage (neurolysis). Around 90-98% of the alcohol that enters the body is broken down. It can also be used to make drugs dissolve better and act as a sedative in medicine. Alcohol affects various brain receptors, such as GABA and NMDA, and is broken down by the liver enzyme alcohol dehydrogenase.

How Videx works in the body

Ethanol affects the brain in several ways. It binds to receptors for acetylcholine, serotonin, GABA and glutamate, which changes their activity. It also binds to GABA and glycine receptors, giving it a sedative effect. Ethanol works as an anti-infective by disrupting the balance of water across cell membranes.

Master Protocol: The main goal of this master clinical study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, efficacy, and pharmacokinetic (PK) of long-acting oral (LAO) regimens in people with HIV-1 (PWH). The main goal of this Substudy-01 is to assess the safety, tolerability, effectiveness, and PK of switching to weekly LAO regimens, including GS-3242 + LEN, versus continuing on once daily oral bictegravir/emtricitabine/tenofovir alafenamide (B/F/TAF; coformulated; Biktarvy®) in PWH with controlled HIV infection, B/F/TAF for at least 6 months prior to study start. The primary objective is to evaluate the efficacy of switching to each LAO regimen versus continuing B/F/TAF in virologically suppressed PWH at Week 24.

IAP086 for HIV

18 - 70
All Sexes
Chapel Hill, NC

Purpose: To assess the safety and tolerability of a single dose of IAP086 in persons with HIV suppressed on stable ART Participants: 30 people from UNC within 18 to 70years of age. People with HIV on ART with plasma HIV-1 RNA \< 50 copies/mL for 12 months prior to screening. Procedures (methods): The participant's standard of care ART regimen is continued throughout the study period. This study requires an overnight stay in a research unit. During the overnight stay, participants will receive a single infusion (medicine given slowly through a vein in their arm) of IAP086 and be monitored for 24 hours. Each later participant receives IAP086 at the same or a higher dose decided in advance. The dose will increase as more participants receive IAP086 without concerning side effects. Study visits also occur 2, 3, 7, 14, 21 and 28 days after the study drug is given. Study procedures include review of the medical history, physical exams, and blood draws.

Methamphetamine for HIV

18 - 65
All Sexes
San Francisco, CA

The most commonly used illicit stimulant in people with HIV (PWH) is methamphetamine (MA). Prior studies demonstrate strong evidence that MA promotes increased HIV transcription as well as immune dysregulation. A challenge in achieving worldwide HIV eradication is targeting specific marginalized populations who are most likely to benefit from an HIV cure but possess poorer immune responses. For this study, N = \~20 PWH virally-suppressed on antiretroviral therapy (ART) with no prior history of MA use disorder will be administered oral methamphetamine to determine the effects of short-term MA exposure on residual virus production, gene expression, and inflammation. Measures of MA exposure in urine and serum will then be associated with residual virus production, gene expression, cell surface immune marker protein expression, and systemic markers of inflammation. Thus, the proposed work will leverage a unique clinical trial design to generate advanced gene expression and immunologic data to identify potential novel targets for reversing HIV latency, reducing inflammation, and personalizing future therapies in PWH who use MA.

Bictegravir + Emtricitabine + Tenofovir Alafenamide for HIV

18+
All Sexes
Clearwater, FL

Managing HIV well requires taking antiretroviral therapy (ART) every day, but many people living with HIV experience interruptions in their treatment. These pauses in medication can happen for many reasons, such as side effects, challenges with getting to the clinic, personal circumstances, stigma, or difficulties with everyday life. When HIV treatment is stopped, the viral load can increase, which may affect a person's health and make it easier for HIV to be passed on to others. Restarting treatment quickly after an interruption is important for both personal and public health. However, it can be difficult for people who miss doses to get back on treatment right away. There are often several steps and medical appointments required before restarting, such as waiting for lab results or reviewing medical history, which can cause further delays. These additional steps can make it even harder for people to re-engage and may discourage them from returning to care. The REINITIATE study is designed for people living with HIV who have not taken any antiretroviral medications for at least the last 12 weeks. The study will offer participants a way to restart their HIV therapy quickly, by beginning treatment with B/F/TAF on the same day that they return to care. B/F/TAF is a widely used, once-daily HIV regimen, and is recommended in national treatment guidelines. Researchers want to find out if this rapid restart approach is safe and effective, and whether it helps people regain control of HIV and remain in care. The study will also examine how many participants are able to keep the virus at a low level (viral suppression), stay engaged in their HIV care, and tolerate the medication after rapidly restarting treatment. In addition, the study will include interviews with some participants, to gain a better understanding of why they stopped taking their medications and what supported their return to treatment. These insights could help healthcare teams develop better ways to support people living with HIV in the future.

Islatravir + Ulonivirine for HIV

18+
All Sexes
Ft. Pierce, FL

Researchers are looking for new ways to treat HIV-1 (Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1). The usual (standard) treatment for HIV-1 is antiretroviral therapy (ART), which includes taking medicines to lower the amount of HIV-1 in the body. Standard ART helps people live longer, but people must take up to 3 medicines up to twice a day. Standard ART may also cause other health problems. Researchers want to know if a study ART works as well as a standard ART to treat HIV-1. The study ART combines 2 medicines, islatravir and ulonivirine, and is taken once a week. The goals of this study are to learn: 1) If the study ART works as well as a standard ART to treat HIV-1, and 2) About the safety of the study ART and if people tolerate it compared to a standard ART.

TMB-365 + TMB-380 for HIV

All Sexes
San Francisco, CA

TMB-365 is a monoclonal antibody that binds to the CD4 receptor. TMB-380, aka VRC07-523LS is a monoclonal antibody that binds to HIV. Both interfere with HIV entry. This study is designed to test the combination of the antibodies as maintenance therapy in HIV infected suppressed individuals discontinuing oral cART for 48 weeks. Researchers will compare TMB-365/TMB-380 given IV every 8 weeks to continuation of daily oral cART to see if TMB-365/TMB-380 can also maintain viral suppression. Participants will: 1. Receive TMB-365/TMB-380 infusion or take oral cART as scheduled for 48 weeks 2. Visit the clinic as schedule for checkups and tests

MucoCept-CVN for HIV Prevention

18 - 45
Female
San Francisco, CA

MucoCept-CVN uses a Lactobacillus strain native to the human vagina that is modified into a live biotherapeutic product (LBP) that continuously expresses a potent anti-HIV drug. If research shows that MucoCept-CVN is safe and effective, it could become a self-renewing, female-initiated prevention product for women that promotes vaginal health and provides protection from HIV. The goal of this first-in-human Phase 1 dose-ranging, randomized, placebo-controlled study of MucoCept-CVN is to collect data on safety, colonization, changes to the vaginal microbiota and clearance of the strain with antibiotics. Twelve healthy women will be enrolled and take either one or three doses of MucoCept-CVN or placebo, and a week later will receive antibiotics to clear the Lactobacillus strain. If research shows that MucoCept-CVN is safe and effective, it could become a self-renewing, long-acting, female-initiated prevention product for women that promotes vaginal health and provides protection from HIV.
