Journal ArticleDOI

Therapeutic response to peg-IFN-alpha-2b and ribavirin in HIV/HCV co-infected African-American and Caucasian patients as a function of HCV viral kinetics and interferon pharmacodynamics.

TL;DR: The pharmacodynamic parameter EC50, estimated from nonlinear fitting of the viral kinetics together with peg-IFN2b concentration data, showed that HIV/ hepatitis C virus co-infected African-Americans have lower sensitivity to interferon-alpha thus giving rise to slower viral decline.
Journal ArticleDOI

Proteome-Wide Anti-Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) and Anti-HIV Antibody Profiling for Predicting and Monitoring the Response to HCV Therapy in HIV-Coinfected Patients

TL;DR: Analysis of pre- and posttreatment samples revealed significant decreases in the combined anti-core, anti-E1, and anti-NS4 HCV antibody titers in those with SVRs but not in those who experienced relapse or who did not respond.
Journal ArticleDOI

A pilot study of safety and efficacy of HCV retreatment with sofosbuvir/velpatasvir/voxilaprevir in patients with or without HIV (RESOLVE STUDY).

TL;DR: Twelve weeks of SOF/VEL/VOX was safe and effective in patients with relapsed HCV after initial combination oral Hepatitis C therapy and treatment response was not diminished with HIV-infection or previous poor adherence or noncompletion of DAA-based therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Multiple Drug Interaction Study of Stavudine with Agents for Opportunistic Infections in Human Immunodeficiency Virus-Infected Patients

TL;DR: Although the maximum concentration of drug in serum was significantly decreased when the drug was given in combination with three opportunistic infection medications, the area under the concentration-time curve did not significantly differ across various treatment regimens.
Journal ArticleDOI

Does Pneumocystis carinii prophylaxis still need to be lifelong

TL;DR: The implementation of prophylaxis to prevent an initial episode of pneumonia or a subsequent episode (secondary prophYLaxis) was the first intervention that substantially increased survival and improved the quality of life for patients with HIV infection.
