Recruiting studies near San Francisco
- NCT03174977RecruitingEarly Phase 1
How HIV medicine moves through the body on MRI scans
This early study measures how raltegravir (an HIV medicine) spreads in the body using a special scan called PET/MR. It may help doctors better understand how to deliver and monitor HIV treatment, even though it focuses on measuring drug behavior rather than curing HIV.

Follow-up study for adults who received EBT-101 for HIV
This study checks how adults are doing long-term after receiving an HIV treatment called EBT-101 in an earlier study. It helps researchers understand safety and longer-term effects over time.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07645287RecruitingPhase 2
New HIV Combination Therapy for People on Biktarvy
This study tests a new HIV medication (GS-3242) combined with lenacapavir against your current Biktarvy regimen. Both are all-oral treatments for people whose HIV is well-controlled.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT03729752RecruitingPhase 1
PET scan to study an HIV-fighting antibody in the body
This Phase 1/early study uses a special PET scan to see where an HIV-targeting antibody (VRC01) goes in the body. The study may help researchers understand how well this antibody reaches HIV-related targets, which could guide future HIV treatments or vaccines.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05719441RecruitingPhase 2
Antibodies plus early HIV treatment to try for HIV remission
This study tests whether giving special HIV-fighting antibodies along with starting standard HIV medicine soon after infection can help you reach “HIV remission.” It may reduce or delay the return of detectable virus, but you must be willing to follow close monitoring and specific study steps.

PrEP on demand: a pilot study for men who have sex with men
This study tests a '2-1-1' on-demand PrEP strategy for cisgender men who have sex with men. It aims to see if taking PrEP only around the time of sex is safe and effective. If you are interested in starting or currently taking PrEP this way, you may be eligible.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07181486RecruitingPhase 1
Safety study of a vaginal gel for healthy women
This trial tests a gel placed in the vagina to see if it is safe. Healthy women with regular periods who have a steady partner may join.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18–45 - NCT05985642Recruiting
HIV treatment interruption study for long-term participants
This study looks at people with HIV who have already taken a break from their HIV medications (called an analytic treatment interruption, or ATI) as part of another study. It aims to understand how well the body can control the virus during longer breaks from treatment, up to 96 weeks.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT00187512Recruiting
Study of how HIV treatment changes outcomes over time
This is an observational study (not a new drug) that tracks how living with HIV can change over time in different treatment situations. It may help researchers understand long-term effects of the modern “protease inhibitor era” and improve future care.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04648046RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
CAR-T cell treatment for HIV infection
This early-phase study tests whether CAR-T cells (immune cells modified to recognize HIV) can help control HIV. You may be asked to briefly pause HIV medicines to see how well the treatment controls the virus.
