Herbal tablets with HIV therapy for low immune cell counts
Treatments studied
Part of Immune system & allergy, Infections clinical trials.
This trial tests whether adding a traditional Chinese herbal medicine (Qiling Yiqi tablets) to standard HIV treatment can help raise CD4+ T-cell counts in people whose immune systems haven't fully recovered. It may offer a new option for those with persistently low counts despite effective viral suppression.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You are between 18 and 60 years old.
- You have been on HIV treatment (ART) for more than 4 years.

This trial tests whether adding a Chinese herbal medicine (Fuyang Jiedu granules) to standard HIV treatment can help raise CD4 cell counts in people whose immune system hasn't recovered well. It may offer a new option for those with persistently low CD4 counts despite years of effective HIV therapy.
This study tests two drugs, baricitinib and sirolimus, alone or together, to see if they can help control HIV after you stop your usual HIV medications for a short time. The goal is to see if these drugs can keep the virus from rebounding.
This study tests new treatments to help people with HIV who have low CD4 counts despite antiretroviral therapy. It aims to improve immune function and reduce the risk of infections.
This trial tests a Chinese herbal formula (YSQTG) combined with standard immunotherapy and chemotherapy for people newly diagnosed with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer. The goal is to see if adding YSQTG improves outcomes for patients with a specific traditional Chinese medicine pattern.
This trial tests if adding a Chinese herbal formula (BaiDiZiYin ShenQiYiFei) to standard tuberculosis drugs helps improve symptoms like shortness of breath, fatigue, and coughing. It may be helpful for people diagnosed with pulmonary TB who also have signs of Qi and Yin deficiency (a traditional Chinese medicine pattern).
This study tests an experimental drug called JL18008 in people with HIV who have been on stable HIV medications for years but whose immune systems (CD4 cells) haven't recovered as expected. The drug may help boost immune function in these patients.
