Upper GI endoscopy in HIV patients
Part of Infections clinical trials.
This study looks at the findings of upper endoscopy (a camera exam of the stomach and esophagus) in people living with HIV. It may help doctors understand if routine screening is helpful.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older
- You have never had an upper endoscopy before
- You can provide written consent to participate

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study looks at tiny cell “messengers” in blood and stool to understand how HIV behaves before and after starting treatment. You may be eligible if you have untreated HIV (or you’re a healthy volunteer) and can commit to many sample visits, including long-term storage for 20 years.
This study tests how well researchers can track HIV-related health and immune changes over time by collecting blood and other samples. It may help you and your care team by creating detailed monitoring, even if your HIV diagnosis is new or still being evaluated.
This study uses a small tissue sample from an often-accessible lymph node to learn how HIV affects the body. It may help researchers understand why some people control HIV better than others.
This study follows people with a very recent HIV infection and collects blood and other samples to learn more about the infection soon after it starts. It may help researchers better understand early HIV and improve future treatments.
This study looks at how immune tissue in the gut may be involved in curing HIV. You may be asked to have two colonoscopies while on an HIV “cure-related” treatment, so researchers can collect tissue samples to understand what’s happening in your body.
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.
