Immune system study for people living with HIV
Treatments studied
Part of Immune system & allergy, Infections clinical trials.
This study looks at how certain immune cells (NK cells) behave in people who have been on HIV treatment for a long time. It aims to understand why some people's immune systems respond differently, which could help improve future treatments.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years old or older.
- You have HIV-1 and are being cared for at the Lyon University Hospital in France.
- You have been taking HIV medication (ART) continuously for at least 5 years.
- Your viral load has been consistently undetectable while on ART, with no more than two brief increases (blips) above 100 copies/mL.
- You are willing to provide blood or other biological samples for the study.
- You have not participated in a trial that aimed to cure HIV and that might have long-lasting effects on your immune system.

This study looks at how the immune system and HIV behave in people on long-term HIV treatment (ART), using blood samples that will be stored for future tests for up to 20 years. It may help researchers understand how well treatment is controlling HIV and improve future care.
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 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.
This study measures how much HIV is in your blood and lymph node tissue. If you qualify, you would also allow blood and other tests (including genetic and hepatitis screening), which may help researchers better understand how HIV affects the body.
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.
