Cancer drug trial aims to shrink hidden HIV reservoirs

NCT ID NCT07342491

Summary

This early-stage study is testing whether the cancer medication dasatinib can reduce the hidden HIV that persists in the body even during effective treatment. Fourteen adults with well-controlled HIV on long-term therapy will take either dasatinib or a placebo pill for 12 weeks. Researchers will carefully monitor safety and measure if the drug shrinks this hidden viral reservoir, which is a major barrier to curing HIV.
