Summary

This study looks at what happens to HIV when people stop their daily medication for a short time. Researchers want to see how the virus changes in the blood and lymph nodes. About 50 adults with HIV will either stay on their meds or pause them for up to 90 days. The goal is to learn where HIV hides, not to find a cure or treatment.
