The Role of the Gastrointestinal-associated Lymphoid Tissue in the Cure of HIV Infection (NCT05652088)
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
The objective of this study is to understand the effects of HIV cure strategies on the virus and immune cells that reside within the gastrointestinal tract. Subjects receiving therapies with the potential for HIV cure will undergo a colonoscopy to obtain gastrointestinal tissue for research assays. This study will test whether receiving these therapies will induce changes in the immune cells in the gastrointestinal tract and reduce the tissue-associated HIV viral levels.
