Summary
This pilot study aimed to see if a home viral load test (TASSO device) is accurate and easy to use for people starting HIV treatment or trying to lower a high viral load. Participants would have collected samples at home and in the clinic. However, the study was withdrawn before enrolling anyone, so no data was collected.

What this could lead to
If successful, this could show that home viral load tests are reliable and easy to use, making HIV monitoring more convenient.
What could go wrong
