Plasticity-based Adaptive Cognitive Remediation (PACR) for HIV-associated Neurocognitive Dysfunction

This study is a validation study to document the acceptability of the revised
Plasticity-based Adaptive Cognitive Remediation (PACR) program to patients with
HIV-associated Neurocognitive Dysfunction (HAND). The primary objective of this study is to
evaluate the effects of the revised PACR program on the cognitive abilities (e.g.,
attention, executive function), functional status and quality of life of individuals
diagnosed with HAND. The secondary objective of the study is to collect relevant data to
support a pre-investigational device exemption (IDE) submission to the FDA required before
the pivotal randomized, controlled trial planned for Phase II.
