Protecting HIV-exposed infants from severe infections
Part of Immune system & allergy, Infections clinical trials.
This trial studies ways to protect babies who were exposed to HIV before birth but are not infected themselves. It aims to find better interventions to prevent severe infections in these infants.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are pregnant and have HIV.
- Your baby will be exposed to HIV but not infected.

This trial tests an experimental vaccine for babies who were exposed to HIV while in the womb but are not infected. Mothers must be living with HIV, on treatment, and deliver by C-section at the study hospital in Soweto.
This study gives a specific probiotic (from B. infantis) to babies born without HIV to see if it can improve the baby’s early immune health. It focuses on babies who are HIV-exposed because their mother has HIV and plans to exclusively breastfeed for the first 6 months.
This study gives very early, intensive HIV medicine to infants diagnosed with HIV and follows them closely to see if HIV can go into remission (stop being detectable without ongoing treatment). It may help families understand whether treating right after birth can change a child’s long-term HIV outlook.
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.
This study looks at ways to test and treat newborns for HIV early to improve their long-term health. It is for mothers with HIV whose babies are less than 3 days old and who are willing to have their babies tested and followed at home.
This study tests whether giving a special antibody treatment to babies living with HIV, shortly after birth, can help their immune system fight the virus better. It aims to improve their long-term health.
