This study checks in with people who have joined HIV-NAT research in the past or are joining it now, to learn how their HIV and treatment outcomes look over time. It may help improve future care and research for people living with HIV.
BangkokAges 18 years+ - NCT01397669Recruiting
Study immune differences in HIV and HIV-negative adults
This research compares the immune system in the gut lining, spinal fluid, lymph nodes, and blood between people living with HIV and people not living with HIV. Results may help scientists understand how immunity works and how it differs with HIV.
Bangkok, BangkokAges 18–50 - NCT07552038Recruiting

Study on HIV prevention for at-risk Latino adults
This study looks at ways to prevent HIV in Latino adults who are at higher risk. It may help by testing HIV prevention approaches in specific local communities.
Indianapolis, IndianaAges 18 years+ - NCT05858034Recruiting
Study of aging and frailty in people with HIV over 50
This study looks at what makes some people with HIV become “pre-frail” or frail as they get older. It uses questionnaires and other checks to understand challenges to healthy aging and may help improve future support and care.
Winston-Salem, North CarolinaAges 50 years+ - NCT05288790RecruitingPhase 2
Study how gut chemicals and alcohol affect heart risk in HIV
This Phase 2 study looks at how “microbiome metabolites” (chemicals from gut bacteria) and alcohol may affect heart and blood vessel risk in people living with HIV. If you qualify, you may be asked to follow a study plan to see how these factors change health markers related to cardiovascular disease.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 18–89 - NCT00006518Recruiting
Tissue samples from people with viral infections or cancer
This study collects tissue and blood samples from people who have or have been exposed to certain viruses (HIV, KSHV, HPV, EBV, or HTLV-1) or who have developed cancer or precancerous skin lesions. The samples help researchers understand how these viruses may lead to cancer.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–120 - NCT07698600RecruitingPhase 1
Safety test of a new HIV vaccine in adults with or without HIV
This study tests a new RNA-based vaccine called BNT168 to see if it is safe and how the body responds to it. It is for healthy adults with or without HIV, and those with HIV will pause their regular treatment for a while during the study.
Houston, TexasAges 18–50 - NCT07226128Recruiting
Can therapy help HIV patients with depression and insulin resistance?
This study tests if cognitive behavioral therapy (a type of talk therapy) can improve how your body handles sugar (insulin resistance) for people living with HIV who also have depression. You may join if you have HIV, are on stable HIV meds, feel depressed, and do not have diabetes.
Indianapolis, IndianaAges 18 years+ - NCT07772791Recruiting
Online study on digital tools for HIV prevention and treatment in Brazil
This study tests online programs to help people who are at higher risk for HIV get prevention or treatment. It aims to see if digital tools can improve access to and use of HIV medications.
Rio de Janeiro, Rio de JaneiroAges 18 years+ - 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.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT04949464Recruiting
Smoking quit coaching plus lung scans for people with HIV
This study tests a behavior-change program to help people with HIV quit smoking, along with routine low-dose lung CT scans to find warning signs early. It’s a feasibility study, meaning the main goal is to see if the approach is practical and acceptable, and if people can follow through.
La Jolla, CaliforniaAges 45–80 - NCT07393659RecruitingPhase 3
Continued access to HIV treatment after a parent study
This study lets people who finished an earlier HIV treatment study keep getting the same medicine while a new trial is set up. It helps ensure you don't have a gap in your treatment.
Durban, KwaZulu-NatalAges Any age - NCT05502653Recruiting
Study inflammation, lung function, and fungal movement in HIV
This study looks at how body inflammation and lung health relate to the movement of fungi in the body of people living with HIV. The goal is to better understand what factors may affect lung problems and fungal “translocation,” which may help future care.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18–80 - NCT07682961RecruitingPhase 3
Study of new HIV injection vs. standard injectables
This phase 3 trial tests a new long-acting, injectable two-drug combination (lenacapavir + teropavimab + zinlirvimab) vs. another injectable combo (cabotegravir + rilpivirine) for people whose HIV is already well-controlled on daily oral meds. It aims to see if the new combo can keep the virus under control with fewer injections.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07708727RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Injectable HIV treatment vs daily pill for new patients
This trial tests a new injectable HIV treatment (GS-3242 plus lenacapavir) compared to the daily pill Biktarvy for people just starting HIV therapy. If you qualify, you would receive shots every few weeks instead of taking a daily pill.
Ft. Pierce, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT07650916RecruitingPhase 3
A study of two ultra-long-acting HIV shots
This trial tests a new ultra-long-acting injectable combination of cabotegravir and rilpivirine for people with HIV who already have the virus under control. It aims to see if these shots can keep the virus suppressed with fewer doses.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 12 years+ - NCT05419024RecruitingPhase 2
Imaging and biopsy during a planned HIV treatment pause
This Phase 2 study uses special scans (PET/CT) and tissue sampling (biopsy) to learn what is happening in the body while people with HIV take a planned break from antiretroviral therapy (ART) for up to 90 days. It may help researchers find better ways to control HIV without ongoing treatment, though joining involves careful monitoring during the pause.

- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 611 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.
