Liver transplant from donors with HIV for people with HIV
Part of Infections clinical trials.
This study tests whether giving people with HIV a liver from an HIV-positive donor is safe and works well. It looks at infections, cancer risks, and long-term health after transplant.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are on the waiting list for a liver or liver and kidney transplant.
- You are at least 18 years old.
- You have HIV and your most recent viral load is under 50 copies per mL (brief blips up to 400 are okay).
- If you can't take HIV medicines because of organ failure, you may still qualify if a safe plan for treatment after transplant is in place.
- You have not had certain severe brain or gut infections linked to a weak immune system.

This study tests whether kidney transplants from donors with HIV are safe and effective for people with HIV who need a new kidney. It looks at long-term outcomes like rejection and survival.
This trial uses a special blood-filtering procedure (leukapheresis) along with blood tests to better understand how HIV affects the body. It may help researchers learn more about HIV “pathogenesis,” which means what drives disease in different people.
This trial tests a reduced-intensity bone marrow transplant from a related donor (haploidentical), using medicines to help prevent a serious complication called GVHD. It is for people with certain blood cancers and aims to improve outcomes by balancing transplant benefit with lower treatment intensity.
This research study collects blood cells from people recently diagnosed with HIV who haven't started HIV medicines yet. Researchers use these samples to understand how HIV affects the immune system and develop better treatments.
This study tests whether it's safe and effective for people with HIV to receive a liver transplant from a donor who also has HIV. It aims to expand access to transplants for people with HIV.
This trial studies whether it’s safe and effective for HIV-positive people to receive organ transplants from HIV-positive donors. It focuses on matching HIV treatment before and after transplant and checking for major complications.
