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: The goal of this observational, multicenter , real-world study is to evaluate the long-term outcomes of different antiviral therapies in adults with chronic hepatitis B (CHB). The main questions it aims to answer are: What is the 5-year incidence of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) under various treatment regimens? How do rates of HBsAg seroclearance, decompensated cirrhosis, liver fibrosis progress...

Summary: This will be a Phase IIIb Clinical Trial, an international multicenter, randomized, three-arm, non-comparative trial of efficacy, safety, and tolerability of the dual therapy regimen dolutegravir plus lamivudine either twice daily or DTG/3TC ( Dovato) in the morning +dolutegravir (DTG) in the evening, versus standard of care (SOC) twice-daily dolutegravir plus 2 once-daily Nucleoside reverse-trans...

Summary: This is a Phase 2 study to evaluate efficacy and safety of 48 weeks of oral once daily monotherapy with ALG-000184 versus tenofovir disproxil fumarate (TDF) for chronic HBV infection.

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

Summary: Phase III trial evaluating doravirine as an alternative to dolutegravir in treatment naïve people living with HIV-1 infection.

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 trial will test if two repurposed HIV antivirals can reduce symptom burden in adult participants with Long Covid compared to placebo. Viral infection and viral reactivation have been documented in Long Covid. Participants will be randomly allocated to receive antivirals, Truvada (tenofovir disoproxil/emtricitabine, TDF/FTC, Group 1) or Selzentry (Group 2), or a placebo (pill) (Group 3), taken ...

Summary: Chronic hepatitis B can develop into cirrhosis and liver cancer, which seriously endangers the life and health of people. In China, HBV is mainly transmitted from mother to child, showing the phenomenon of family clusters. Similarly, cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma occur in familial clusters. Familial clusters of HBV infection with unfavorable prognoses refers to HBV-infected patients from ...
