Common antibiotic tested to halt lung decline in HIV patients
NCT ID NCT05382208
Summary
This study is testing whether a common antibiotic, doxycycline, can slow down the worsening of emphysema in people living with HIV. About 133 participants with both HIV and emphysema will take either doxycycline or a placebo pill twice daily for 72 weeks. Researchers will measure changes in lung function, walking ability, and quality of life to see if the treatment helps control the lung disease.
