Similar neurocognitive outcomes after 48 weeks in HIV-1-infected participants randomized to continue tenofovir/emtricitabine + atazanavir/ritonavir or simplify to abacavir/lamivudine + atazanavir
Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-associated neurocognitive disorders can persist in many patients despite achieving viral suppression while on antiretroviral therapy (ART). Neurocognitive function over 48 weeks was evaluated using a Cogstate test battery assessing psychomotor function, attention, […]
Increased Dolutegravir Peak Concentrations in People Living With Human Immunodeficiency Virus Aged 60 and Over, and Analysis of Sleep Quality and Cognition
Background: Demographic data show an increasingly aging human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) population worldwide. Recent concerns over dolutegravir-related neuropsychiatric toxicity have emerged, particularly amongst older people living with HIV (PLWH). We describe the pharmacokinetics (PK) of dolutegravir […]
Persistent central nervous system immune activation following more than 10 years of effective HIV antiretroviral treatment
Objective Low-grade immune activation is common in people living with HIV (PLHIV), despite long-term viral suppression by antiretroviral therapy (ART). The clinical significance of this activation remains unclear. The aim of this study was to examine […]
CSF inflammatory markers and neurocognitive function after addition of maraviroc to monotherapy darunavir/ritonavir in stable HIV patients: the CINAMMON study
CINAMMON is a phase IV, open-label, single-arm, pilot study assessing maraviroc (MVC) in the central nervous system (CNS) when added to darunavir/ritonavir monotherapy (DRV/r) in virologically suppressed HIV-infected subjects. CCR5 tropic participants on DRV/r were recruited. […]
Effects of Recent Alcohol Consumption Level on Neurocognitive Performance in HIV+ Individuals
Objectives: Although HIV+ individuals may be at increased risk of alcohol-related cognitive impairment, the relations between drinking level and cognitive performance in these individuals are not well understood. We examined whether higher levels of recent drinking […]
