Background: People with HIV take drugs to keep the amount of virus in their body low. One type of these drugs, called integrase strand transfer inhibitors (INSTIs), can cause weight gain over time. Weight gain can cause diabetes, heart disease, and other serious issues. Researchers want to understand how INSTIs cause weight changes.

Summary: Recent studies have identified an association between Alzheimer's Disease (AD) and an expansion of DNA content in the brain (prefrontal cortex). This additional DNA content appears to be derived from reverse transcriptase (RT) activity that incorporates genomic cDNAs (gencDNAs) into chromosomes, resulting in multiple copies of full length and shorter cDNAs involving many genes - including the caus...

Summary: This study is a multicenter, prospective, observational real-world study designed to investigate and analyze the current treatment patterns of chronic hepatitis B (CHB) across 200 hospitals in China. By comparing patient outcomes under different therapeutic regimens, it aims to provide high-quality evidence-based medical data to optimize CHB treatment strategies and follow-up protocols, ultimately...

Summary: This clinical trial will address the gap in published data on the effect of dolutegravir (DTG)-associated drug-resistant mutations on viral suppression among people remaining on DTG-based antiretroviral therapy. It will also address the gap in the optimal management strategy for this population.

Summary: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the pharmacokinetics, efficacy and safety of TAF in HBV-infected pregnant women.

Summary: Phase 1 dose escalation will determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of revumenib in participants with acute leukemia. In Phase 2, participants will be enrolled in 3 indication-specific expansion cohorts to determine the efficacy, short- and long-term safety, and tolerability of revumenib.

Background: istorically, HIV infection was associated with significant weight loss. However, weight gain is now commonly observed after initiating antiretroviral therapy (ART), particularly in individuals underweight at baseline. It remains unclear whether this weight gain reflects a return to health or results from drug-related or metabolic effects, and whether it persists beyond immune restoration. Recent e...

Summary: This is a phase 4, randomized, controlled, open-label, single-center clinical trial conducted at the Hospital de Infectología, National Medical Center La Raza. The study employs a non-inferiority design with follow-up assessments at 24 and 48 weeks. The study will enroll 156 PLWH aged ≥18 years who are on ART with BIC/FTC/TAF or DTG/3TC/ABC and have maintained virological suppression (HIV-1 RNA \<...

Summary: The goal of this phase II, open-label, randomized, controlled clinical trial is to evaluate the impact of Gammora®, a 16-mer HIV integrase-derived peptide associated with a boosted darunavir antiretroviral regimen compared Gammora® arm) to a boosted darunavir antiretroviral regimen only (control arm) in the estimated HIV reservoir among antiretroviral naïve people living with HIV. The main questio...

Summary: The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the impact of Cardiac Contractility Modulation (CCM) therapy on the initiation and up-titration of Guideline-Directed Medical Therapy (GDMT) in patients with heart failure (HF). This will be assessed by the change in Quad Medication Score (QMS) from baseline (pre-CCM) to 6-month following post-CCM device implant.

Summary: This is a Phase 1 study of central nervous system (CNS) locoregional adoptive therapy with SC-CAR4BRAIN, an autologous CD4+ and CD8+ T cells lentivirally transduced to express to express combinations of B7-H3, EGFR806, HER2, and IL13-zetakine chimeric antigen receptors (CAR). CAR T cells are delivered via an indwelling catheter into the ventricular system in children and young adults with diffuse ...

Background: The primary goal of antiretroviral therapy is to prevent HIV-associated morbidity and mortality. The effectiveness of first-line regimens is supported by a large number of clinical trials; current concerns focus on the long-term adverse effects of antiretrovirals, especially integrase strand transfer inhibitors, as they have been associated with significant weight gain, which may be associated wit...
