Recruiting studies in Illinois
- NCT06071767RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Immune therapy trial for early-treated HIV
This study tests whether a combination of three immune therapies can help control HIV without daily medication. You may qualify if you started HIV treatment very early and have had a suppressed viral load for at least a year.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 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.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18–70 - NCT06517693RecruitingPhase 1
HIV antibody safety study for newborns at risk
This study tests whether giving a combination of two lab-made antibodies (PGT121.414.LS and VRC07-523LS) to newborns exposed to HIV during pregnancy is safe and how the body processes them. It may help protect infants from getting HIV after birth.
Chicago, IllinoisAges Up to 3 days - NCT07392372RecruitingPhase 1
Testing the safety of BNT351 in people with and without HIV
This trial tests a new antibody called BNT351 to see if it is safe and how it affects the immune system. It is for adults who either do not have HIV, or have HIV and are not currently on HIV medications.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18–65 - NCT07202546RecruitingPhase 2
New oral HIV drug trial for people new to treatment
This trial tests a new oral HIV medication (VH4524184) in people who have never taken HIV treatment before. It looks at how well the drug controls the virus and how safe it is.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT07266831RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Study of islatravir and ulonivirine for new HIV patients
This trial tests two new HIV medications, islatravir and ulonivirine, in people who have never taken HIV treatment before. It aims to see if this combination can safely control the virus.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT07342491RecruitingPhase 1
Testing dasatinib to shrink HIV reservoir
This trial tests whether the drug dasatinib can reduce the hidden HIV reservoir in people who have had their virus well-controlled on HIV medications for a long time. It may help move toward a cure by targeting the cells where HIV hides.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT07293559Recruiting
Understanding infant feeding choices in women with HIV
This study looks at how women with HIV decide whether to breastfeed, and what support they get from healthcare providers and family. It aims to learn about their experiences and needs.
Chicago, IllinoisAges Any age - NCT07473778Recruiting
Study of Lenacapavir for HIV Prevention
This trial tests a new medication, lenacapavir, to see how well it works for preventing HIV. It is for people who want or need PrEP (a medicine to prevent HIV) and are interested in learning about different options.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT05077527RecruitingPhase 1
CAR-T treatment for HIV and aggressive B-cell lymphoma
This trial studies a lab-made immune cell treatment (CAR-T) for adults who have HIV and aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma that has come back or did not respond to prior treatment. It aims to see if the treatment can control the lymphoma safely in this specific group.

What taking part in a hiv-1-infection study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.

- Each study lists its eligibility rules — age, diagnosis, prior treatments. On every trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Do I have to live in Illinois to take part?
