"But the malaise was short-lived because HIV arrived. In 1985, Bob Coombs came to Seattle as a postdoctoral fellow to work on HPV. The immunodeficiency syndrome of gay men was being tracked by [Dr. Ann Cornwall Collier (born 1953)] and Hunter Handsfield in Seattle, and it became clear that we needed to initiate a virological program in HIV. Shortly after HIV was identified, Bob went to Martin Hirsch's laboratory at Massachusetts General Hospital to learn how to culture HIV. From 1986 until my sabbatical in 1993 with Ed Mocarski at Stanford, HIV was a constant preoccupation [43-47]. It is still one as we in our group struggle on the difficult issues of how to develop an effective HlV-1 vaccine [48-53].
With [Dr. Ann Cornwall Collier (born 1953)], I established the University of Washington ACTU, one of the original 14. My colleagues graced me with chairing the executive committee of the largest clinical trials program in history. It grew from 14 LO over 53 academic medical center ."

NEW YORK- AZT: It works best at low doses. It's toxic at any dose. It'll prolong your life. It'll kill you. No matter what people say about it, AZT is still the only drug approved" for treating the human immunodeficiency virus.
Two studies published recently show that AZT taken in doses much lower than the original standard dose - 900 mg less per day - are just as effective with fewer adverse effects. These are not the first studies to suggest low-dosing with AZT, and AIDS physicians, especially those in urban areas, have been prescribing low doses for some time.
Nevertheless, those with qualms about the drug say that they're concerned about adverse effects that appear over time. Even so, both supporters and critics are looking toward combination therapy, in which two or three drugs taken together at low doses will attack HIV synergistically. Those critics charge that better therapies will be available only if the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases stops its obsession with testing AZT virtually exclusively and moves on to other agents.
"AZT is a political issue,' said Steve Machon, president of the board of AIDS Treatment Registry, an educational advocacy organization dealing with clinical trials for people with AIDS. "It appears that the longest-term survivors are people who've used AZT for a limited amount of time or not at all."
The drug's manufacturer, Burroughs Wellcome Co., and NIAlD say otherwise.
Kathy Bartlett, a Wellcome spokesperson, estimated that "tens of thousands' of people with HIV infection were taking AZT and were surviving longer because of it. And at NWD, an official said that she was perplexed why the articles, by Dr. Margaret Fischl at the University of Miami and [Dr. Ann Cornwall Collier (born 1953)] at the University of Washington, received attention in the mainstream press. "We were a little surprised when there were stories about them," said [Deborah Phyllis (Grossman) Katz (born 1948)] special assistant to Dan Hoth, who heads the AIDS division at NIAlD. 'They're old news. It was just information that finally appeared in the medical literature."
[ Note - Dr. Ann Cornwall Collier (born 1953) is a long-time peer of Dr. Lawrence A. Corey (born 1947) ]
Not according to Collier: "Dr. Fischl's study has had a major impact and should not be underestimated just because it has already happened,' she said.
Indeed, Fischl's study was used by Wellcome to get the US Food and Drug Administration last January to officially lower the dose from 1500 mg per day to 600 mg per day for people with AIDS. Collier's study compared effectiveness of three daily doses, 300 mg, 600 mg and 1500 mg, in those with AIDS-related complex, a stage of HIV infection in which symptoms appear but the HIV infection has not progressed to AIDS as defined by the US Centers for Disease Control. Both were published in the Oct. 11 issue of the New England Journal of Medicine.
600mg?
Fischl, working with a number of
researchers across the country and the
NIAID's AIDS Clinical Trials Group,
concluded that 600 mg per day was as
effective as, and iess toxic than, 500 mg.
Those in her study had to have had
a previous bout of Pneumocystis carinii
pneumonia. The study was randomized,
meaning that none of the 524 subjects
could choose their dose-either 250 mg
for lesbians and gay men.
In a letter dated Oct. 15, the Supervisors
warned GM that "as part of
GM's financial relationship with the ,
city, your corporation agrees not to
engage in discriminatory practices
against lesbians and gay men. Natu-
. rally, we are outraged that GM's
. Chevrolet division has chosen to violate
its agreement with San Francisco
and to, subfect lesbian and gay people
to the hqrrors of prejudice and
injustice:" A spokesperson from
Chevrolet did not return a reporter's
phone call. On Oct. 16, a spokesperson
told the San Francisco Examimer,
"We sincerely apologize to anyone
who was offended and will take every
precaution to ensure that nothing like
this ever happens again."
"This video didn't just happen,"
remarked TJ Anthony, an openly gay
aide to Supervisor Hongisto, pointing
out that the interView was culled from
more than 500 hours of tape, reviewed
by the promotional division of Chevrolet,
and released as part of a coordinated
effort to 'up sales. "That means
there was a consensus of bigotry
among the GM promotional people,"
Anthony concluded.
Currently, according to Anthony,
the city is awaiting a response from
GM to a letter signed by all of the city
supervisors, and a report on GM from
the Human Rights Commission. Anthony
said that part of his negotiations
with GM include a request that the international
corporation donate a sum
equal to the amount of money spent
on the video to a gay and lesbian community-
based organization that fights
violence and discrimination.
An editorial in the San Francisco
Examiner urged citizens to go even farther
in their actions against the company:
"Boycott [GM's]big, macho trucks.
Japanese trucks work better anyway,
and you don't have to wipe the slime off
the door handles," the piece suggested.

Larger study to test combination treatment for COVID-19
May 15, 2020 sarah JonasVideo Only
Post Views: 289
Researchers are pulling out all the stops to find treatments and cures for patients exposed to COVID-19. And now a larger study at UW Medicine is enrolling participants to determine whether a treatment combining a low dose of hydroxychloroquine and azithromycin can prevent hospitalization and death in people with COVID-19.
Dr. Ann Collier, professor of medicine in the Division of Allergy and Infectious Diseases at the Univerisity of Washington School of Medicine, is the local PI for a study funded by the National Institutes of Health looking to enroll 2,000 outpatients at sites across the country who have tested positive for COVID-19.
This study is separate from a smaller treatment trial at UW Medicine enrolling 630 patients exposed to COVID-19 using the same regimen. Researchers say the two studies are complimentary. In normal times, researchers said one study would be launched before a larger study. But because of the time-sensitive need for answers, a larger study is being launched simultaneously. The smaller study will provide more insight into the virology of the virus. And the larger trial will provide definitive clinical outcomes data.
To enroll, call or text 206-773-7129 or email actu@uw.edu.
Hydroxychloroquine has received considerable hype as a potential treatment for COVID-19 and has been confused with chloroquine, a drug stopped in a treatment trial in Brazil. There is conflicting evidence on whether it works, which is why stronger evidence is needed. The hydroxychloroquine dose used in these studies has been used safely by many people for decades to prevent malaria and other sicknesses.
Multiple studies in different populations are taking place at UW Medicine to answer the critical question on the effectiveness of hydroxychloroquine.

Background: Accelerated bone mineral density (BMD) loss occurs during the first two
years of ART. Few studies have evaluated subsequent BMD changes, especially compared
to uninfected controls.
Methods: ACTG A5318 performed one follow-up site-specific dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry
(DXA) in HIV-infected individuals who had received baseline and follow-up DXAs during
the randomized treatment trial A5202/A5224s. As controls, we obtained DXA results from uninfected
participants enrolled in BACH/Bone and WIHS cohorts. Repeated measures analyses
compared BMD change rate between HIV-infected and uninfected, adjusting for age, sex, race,
and body mass index (BMI). In the HIV-infected group, we performed multivariable analyses
evaluating association of HIV-specific (baseline and time-updated CD4 and viral load), HIV
treatment-related (randomized ART regimen, cumulative tenofovir [TDF] exposure) and non-
HIV related factors (age, sex, race, relevant concomitant medication use, BMI, total lean body
mass) on BMD change rate.
Results: Baseline characteristics between HIV infected (n=97) and HIV-uninfected (n=630)
participants were generally similar: median age, 40 vs. 46; % female, 14 vs. 14; % black, 34 vs.
35; median BMI, 24 vs. 29; and median years between first and last DXA, 7.5 vs. 6.9. Seventyone
percent of HIV-infected participants were on TDF at last DXA. Compared to controls, HIVinfected
individuals had significantly greater adjusted BMD decline rate at lumbar spine (LS)
and total hip (TH) during the first 96 weeks of ART (both p<0.001). Subsequently, on follow-up
DXA, HIV infection remained significantly associated with greater adjusted BMD decline rate at
LS (-0.29%/year; 95% CI: -0.49, -0.09; p=0.005) but not at TH (p=0.63). In the HIV group, the
rate of BMD decline slowed after the first 96 weeks of ART (0-96 weeks vs. Late Change: LS:
-0.75%/year vs. -0.19%/year, p=0.04; TH: -1.29%/year vs. -0.30%/year, p<0.001). During the
late period, no HIV-related characteristic was associated with BMD loss, but lower total lean
body mass (and not BMI) was associated with greater BMD loss at LS and TH (both p<0.001).
Conclusions: Although the rate of BMD decline slowed after the first 96 weeks after ART
initiation in HIV-infected persons, the rate of bone loss at the lumbar spine was still significantly
greater than HIV-uninfected controls.
