NCT ID NCT07355413
First seen Jan 29, 2026 · Last updated Jun 23, 2026 · Updated 18 times
Summary
This study will compare frailty and other age-related health problems in 600 older adults (60+) in Burkina Faso, Côte d'Ivoire, and Togo — half living with HIV, half without. Researchers will use surveys, medical checks, and interviews to understand how HIV affects aging and what care is needed. The goal is to gather information, not to test a new treatment.

If successful, this study could reveal how HIV affects aging in West Africa and point to better care for older adults living with HIV.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, not a treatment trial. It will not test any new drug or therapy, so it cannot directly improve health.
