Scientists dig into lymph nodes to uncover HIV's hiding spots
NCT ID NCT01202305
First seen May 24, 2026 · Last updated May 24, 2026
Summary
This study looks at lymph node tissue from people with HIV to learn how the virus stays in the body even when medicines are working. Researchers will remove small lymph nodes from the groin area and measure how much HIV is there and how damaged the tissue is. The goal is to better understand HIV persistence, not to test a new treatment. About 50 adults with HIV who are either on effective therapy or naturally control the virus will take part.
