Probiotic treatment for aging cells in HIV
Part of Immune system & allergy, Infections clinical trials.
This study tests a special probiotic treatment to see if it can reduce aging-related cell damage in people with HIV who drink alcohol. It may help improve overall health.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 40 years of age or older.
- You have HIV.

- You have not taken probiotics in the last 3 months.
- You are not currently taking antibiotics or immune-suppressing medications.

This study tests whether cutting back on alcohol and taking probiotics can improve memory and thinking in older adults who are heavy drinkers. If you are interested in drinking less, you may be able to join.
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.
This trial studies how the bacteria in your gut (“microbiome”) relate to frailty (weakness/low physical resilience) in people with HIV who are stably doing well on treatment. It may help researchers understand why some people become frail and how the gut may play a role.
This study tests whether a daily probiotic drink can improve inflammatory skin conditions like rosacea, acne, or eczema in women aged 40 to 60. You will take the drink for 8 weeks and provide blood, skin, stool samples, and a photo of your face.
This trial tests dietary supplements and other treatments aimed at slowing the effects of aging. It is looking for generally healthy adults who are not taking immune-altering medications or other conflicting therapies.
This study looks at how gut bacteria and inflammation interact in people with both HIV and heavy alcohol use. It aims to find new ways to improve health by understanding these connections.
