HIV and hepatitis B coinfection follow-up study in Europe
This study follows people who have both HIV and hepatitis B over time to better understand how the infection responds after starting treatment. Your information (and sometimes stored blood samples) helps researchers track changes from the start of therapy to about 2 years later.
Ages 16 years+ - NCT04902443RecruitingPhase 1
Pomalidomide and nivolumab for virus-related cancers
This trial tests two drugs (pomalidomide and nivolumab) in people with cancers caused by viruses. The goal is to see if this combination can shrink or control tumors that haven't responded to standard therapies.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–99 - NCT04787848Recruiting
Testing pain causes and treatments in people with HIV
This study looks at why chronic widespread pain happens in people with HIV and tests new ways to understand and treat it. You may be able to join if your HIV is stable on treatment and you meet pain and safety requirements.
Miami, FloridaAges 19–65 - NCT04851015RecruitingPhase 3
Low-dose TMP-SMX for Pneumocystis pneumonia (PCP)
This Phase 3 study tests whether low-dose trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (also called TMP-SMX) can treat Pneumocystis pneumonia (PCP) in people with weakened immune systems. It may help improve treatment while reducing side effects compared with standard dosing.
Montreal, QuebecAges 18–100 - NCT04704648Recruiting
Surgery for a one-eye surface tumor in people with HIV
This study looks at whether removing a suspected pre-cancer/cancer growth on the surface of the eye can be done safely in people living with HIV. It is a feasibility (safety and practical) study, helping doctors refine the best surgical approach and follow-up.
KampalaAges 18 years+ - NCT04663152Recruiting

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for hiv?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 583 recruiting hiv studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a hiv trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a hiv trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
