First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This early-stage study tests a new experimental HIV drug called VH4770359 in 214 healthy adults aged 18-55. The goal is to check its safety, side effects, and how the body processes it. Participants will take either the drug or a placebo, and some will also receive midazolam to see if the new drug interacts with other medicines. Results will help design future studies in people living with HIV.
