HIV cocktail aims to free patients from daily pills

NCT ID NCT06805656

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This phase 2 trial tests whether a mix of intensified antiretrovirals, a latency-reversing drug, an anti-proliferative drug, and a personalized vaccine can shrink the hidden HIV reservoir enough to allow people to stop their daily medication. The study will enroll 70 adults with well-controlled HIV. Researchers will monitor viral rebound and immune responses during a treatment interruption.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance

Maraviroc, Dolutegravir, Auranofin, Nicotinamide, and a personalized dendritic cell vaccine

What this could lead to

If successful, this could point toward a way for people with HIV to stay healthy without needing daily antiretroviral pills.

What could go wrong

This is a small, early-phase trial (70 people) and previous attempts at HIV remission have failed. The combination approach is complex and may not work for everyone, or could cause side effects.
