NCT ID NCT03825536
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at how a single dose of methamphetamine affects the HIV virus in people who are already on effective HIV treatment. Fourteen HIV-positive adults with no history of meth use took part. The goal was to see if meth causes the virus to become more active and increase inflammation, which could help find new ways to target hidden HIV.
