This study will adapt and assess the preliminary effectiveness of a community health worker-delivered mental health counselling intervention delivered remotely to reduce anxiety and depression among people with HIV in Florida.
This is a pilot trial designed to assess the feasibility and acceptability of an intervention aimed at improving adherence to antiretroviral therapy (ART), viral suppression, and engagement in HIV care. The intervention will address behavioral coping strategies, HIV care engagement behaviors, and substance use management.
The goal of this study is to develop and evaluate the effectiveness of a training program to reduce intersectional stigma faced by sexual minorities and people living with HIV (PLWH) in healthcare settings. The study participants are medical providers (i.e. physicians) specializing in sexual health medicine in China.
The primary objective of this research project is to identify barriers to scale-up of Opioid Agonist Therapy (OAT) in the justice systems (prisons and probation) in Tajikistan, Kyrgyzstan, Moldova, and Georgia, and establish a NIATx learning collaborative to scale-up OAT, and analyze scale-up utilizing latent class growth analyses in people who inject drugs (PWID).
The goal of this observational study is to learn about the pilot test of the employment program among young Black sexual minority men. The main question it aims to answer is: What is the feasibility and acceptability of the employment program? Young Black sexual minority male participants will attend the two day employment program and will complete four study surveys over the course of 13 months. Employment program facilitators will complete a study survey and participate in a focus group over the course of 1 day.
HIV testing and service uptake are infrequent among people who use drugs (PWUD) in the United States. In partnership with a community-based syringe service program (SSP), this project will develop the SSP-based "Prevention Ambassadors" (PA) intervention to promote HIV testing and service uptake among PWUD via the secondary distribution (i.e., peer delivery) of HIV self-testing (HIVST) kits with local HIV service information and referrals to HIV service navigation in the social networks of SSP clients (i.e., PWUD). The PA intervention will then be piloted to assess its preliminary effects, acceptability, and feasibility among PWUD in the Ending the HIV Epidemic priority jurisdiction of Riverside County, California.
The Department of Veterans Affairs is the largest single provider of medical care to people with HIV in the United States. The condition of excess lipid within and around muscle, termed myosteatosis, predisposes Veterans to physical function decline, frailty, disability, and cardiometabolic diseases such as diabetes and cardiovascular disease. In the investigators current Merit supported cohort, the investigators found that 36% of Veterans with treated HIV and obesity have "myosteatotic type obesity". Based on the investigators findings, the investigators have designed a multipronged integrated intervention that combines: 1) dietary replacement of saturated with unsaturated fats; 2) administration of L-carnitine and omega-3 fatty acid supplementation; and 3) targeted resistance exercise training.
The goal of this pilot study is to evaluate the implementation and outcomes of the Arms Around You (AAY) program, a supportive housing initiative launched by the Philadelphia Department of Public Health (PDPH) in 2024. The program aims to address housing instability among people with HIV (PWH) using a Housing First model. The main questions it seeks to answer are: 1. How does AAY affect HIV-related outcomes, particularly viral suppression and antiretroviral therapy (ART) adherence? 2. What are the program's effects on economic, psychological, and secondary health outcomes? 3. How feasible, acceptable, and scalable is the program for broader implementation? Participants will be assigned to immediate program access or a waitlist using a random lottery system, creating treatment and control groups, respectively. Surveys and health data will be collected at baseline and over 36 months to assess changes in outcomes such as viral suppression, housing security, mental health, and financial well-being. Qualitative interviews with participants and stakeholders will complement quantitative findings to explore mechanisms of change and guide program optimization.
This randomized clinical trial (RCT) evaluates whether metformin can reduce systemic inflammation and improve immune function in individuals with a history of injection drug use, with or without HIV. Participants will receive metformin or placebo and undergo immune system assessments, including vaccine response evaluations.
HVTN 206/HPTN 114 is a randomized, double blind, controlled, phase 2 clinical trial to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and neutralization of VRC07-523LS, PGT121.414.LS, and PGDM1400LS broadly neutralizing monoclonal antibodies given intravenously in adult participants without HIV. The hypothesis of the study is that the combination of VRC07-523LS and PGT121.414.LS and PGDM1400LS antibodies when administered via the intravenous (IV) route will be safe and tolerable in adult participants without HIV. The study aims to enroll 200 participants across multiple sites with an estimated total duration of participation of eighteen (18) months.
