Groundbreaking trial tests HIV+ to HIV+ kidney transplants
NCT ID NCT03408106
Summary
This study explored whether people living with HIV could safely donate a kidney to other HIV-positive patients who needed a transplant. It followed three carefully screened donors to monitor their health after donation, including kidney function, blood pressure, and HIV control. The goal was to expand the pool of available kidneys for HIV-positive patients on transplant waiting lists.
