Tenofovir Disoproxil Fumarate

This phase 1 study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, and immune responses of two experimental mRNA HIV vaccines in adults living with HIV who are in overall good health. The study will enroll about 42 participants at multiple study sites. Researchers will assess whether these vaccines can start or strengthen antibody responses against HIV. The study will also evaluate how a closely monitored planned pause in antiretroviral therapy affects these immune responses.

The purpose of this study is to identify the best combination of new intervention components to use with CARRII, the first automated online intervention for alcohol-exposed pregnancies (AEP). This intervention is specifically designed for Native women and others who can become pregnant. Our goal is to maximize the effectiveness of the online intervention while keeping costs manageable for Native communities.

This is a research study about the effects of vaginal estradiol compared to moisturizer on vaginal symptoms of menopause and the microbiome in women with HIV. This research study aims to understand how vaginal products affect the aging of the female genital tract in women living with HIV who are menopausal or perimenopausal and have vaginal or urinary symptoms. There is a comparison group of women who are living without HIV. Participants with HIV and vaginal or urinary menopausal symptoms (e.g., dryness, irritation, soreness, itching, pain with sex, dysuria, urgency, or frequent urinary tract infections) will be asked to apply vaginal estradiol or a vaginal moisturizer (Replens). Participants who have vaginal or urinary menopausal symptoms and do not have HIV will receive vaginal estradiol.

The overarching goal of this project is to optimize the PrEP Choice integrated mHealth package and assess the efficacy and cost of PrEP Choice on PrEP initiation and adherence among young people. It is hypothesized that PrEP Choice will improve HIV PrEP uptake and adherence among young people and will be cost-effective to deliver to young people in the United States (U.S.). This study will also assess the uptake, adherence, and acceptability of DoxyPEP among young people.

This research will test the effects of a novel program (ENHANCE-TTS) with tools, training, and clinic facilitation support that capitalizes on pharmacists' roles by expanding their scope of practice to deliver tobacco treatment. This effectiveness-implementation study will evaluate the effects of the ENHANCE-TTS program on implementation outcomes and patient-level smoking cessation outcomes in people living with HIV and concurrently identify key barriers and facilitators to implementing this program in practice.

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.

The main aim of this pilot trial is to investigate the feasibility of undertaking a randomized controlled trial involving adults living with HIV. Additionally, this trial will explore potential change differences in self-reported quality of life and blood-derived immune markers between a chiropractic care group and no treatment controls.

This project will test ways to reduce stigma in healthcare settings so that more providers offer, and more patients receive, important anal sex-related HIV services, including anorectal sexually transmitted infection (STI) testing, preventive medications, and cancer screening. By evaluating these stigma-reduction strategies in eight clinics in the Mississippi Delta, a region with high rates of HIV and STIs, the research team will learn whether and how these approaches work to improve access to care. The results will help guide healthcare systems in using the most effective methods to reduce stigma, making it easier for people to get prevention services and improving public health.

The LYPS intervention is a multi-level intervention that combines: a) structural-level delivery of PrEP and PrEP services by a community health professional (CHP) at a designated place in the community being offered by the SC where PrEP is not yet provided (e.g., participant's home, community partner location, or traveling mobile van), with b) an individual-level mobile application (app) to support PrEP adherence and persistence between CHP visits.

Women involved in the carceral system (WICS) are at higher risk for both HIV and substance use than the general public. WICS are also more likely to engage in behaviors both before and after release that put them at risk for HIV and for overdose, due to opioid use. Despite these risk factors, WICS are less likely to be aware of, use, or adhere to pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) and have less access to medications for opioid use disorder (MOUD). The primary goal of the proposed research is to pilot test a systematically developed PrEP and MOUD uptake intervention for WICS using contextually relevant messages developed through novel formative research methods and embedded in a web-based application in a rigorous research design. The investigators will then test this approach (called PA-LINKS) in a pilot randomized trial with women who have recently been incarcerated in Philadelphia in partnership with Philadelphia FIGHT, a federally qualified health center, for promise of efficacy, and to assess feasibility and acceptability.

This study aims to improve health care for people who may have HIV or substance use disorders by bringing two services to a large community health center in Chicago. First, the clinic will begin offering routine screening for substance use to all patients. Second, the study will offer a social network-based program that helps people identify friends or partners who may need support and link them to care. The goal is to help more people learn their HIV status, reduce HIV levels in the community, and connect people with substance use treatment when needed. The study will also look at how well these services can be added into everyday clinic practice and what is needed to keep them going over time.

This study will test the safety and blood levels of the antibody BNT351 in people living without and with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). This study will also test the anti-viral activity of BNT351 in people living with HIV (PLWH) with detectable virus levels. The main goals of this study are: * To learn about the safety of BNT351 and check for side effects. * To measure the amount of BNT351 antibody in blood over time. * To test the amount of HIV in the blood at different times after treatment with BNT351 in people living with HIV.
