New HIV drug shows promise in small trial for Drug-Resistant patients
NCT ID NCT03902522
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026
Summary
This trial tested an injectable drug called PRO 140 (Leronlimab) in 6 people with HIV who had developed resistance to standard medications. The goal was to see if adding PRO 140 to their current failing therapy could reduce the amount of virus in their blood. The study lasted 25 weeks and also looked at safety and tolerability.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- PRO 140 (Leronlimab) - an injectable drug that blocks HIV from entering cells
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could provide a new treatment option for people with HIV who have developed resistance to standard antiretroviral drugs.
- What could go wrong
- This is a very small early-phase trial with only 6 participants, so results may not apply broadly. The drug is tested alongside failing therapy, and long-term safety and efficacy are not yet established.
