NCT ID NCT07577986

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting This study
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This early-stage trial tests a combination therapy to target hidden HIV reservoirs. Twenty HIV-positive adults on stable antiretroviral therapy will receive chidamide (to reactivate dormant virus) followed by infusions of engineered NK cells designed to kill the reactivated cells. The main goal is to check safety, but researchers will also look for signs that the viral reservoir is shrinking.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
chidamide combined with NKG2D CAR-NK cells
What this could lead to
If it works, this could point toward a functional cure for HIV, allowing patients to control the virus without lifelong medication.
What could go wrong
This is a very early, small trial (20 people) focused on safety. The 'shock and kill' approach has not yet been proven in humans, and there are risks like cytokine release syndrome.

Inclusion Criteria A participant will be deemed eligible for enrollment only if all of the following criteria are met: 1. Diagnosis of HIV infection, with a current history of highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) for a minimum duration of two years. 2. Age between 18 and 65 years, inclusive. 3. Plasma HIV RNA level \< 50 copies/mL (virologic suppression). 4. CD4⁺ T cell count \> 200 cells/μL. 5. Adequate hematologic function defined as: * Hemoglobin ≥ 90 g/L; * Platelet count ≥ 75 × 10⁹/L; * Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 1.0 × 10⁹/L; * White blood cell count ≥ 2 × 10⁹/L. 6. Adequate hepatic and renal function defined as: * Serum creatinine ≤ 1.5 × upper limit of normal (ULN); * Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) ≤ 3 × ULN; * Total bilirubin ≤ 2 × ULN; * Prothrombin time (PT) prolongation \< 3 seconds. 7. Hemodynamically stable with a left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≥ 45%. 8. Negative serum or urine pregnancy test for females of childbearing potential. 9. Willingness of the participant to: * Practice effective contraception during the study period and for one year following completion of the trial; * Voluntarily provide written informed consent and comply with scheduled follow up visits and study procedures. Exclusion Criteria Participants meeting any of the following criteria will be excluded from study participation: 1. Presence of severe cardiovascular, respiratory, or hematologic disease; active infectious disease (other than controlled HIV infection); or active malignancy. 2. Positive serology for hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) or detectable hepatitis C virus RNA (HCV RNA). 3. Diagnosis of chronic kidney disease (CKD). 4. History or presence of acute or chronic pancreatitis. 5. Active severe peptic ulcer disease. 6. Current severe neurologic or psychiatric disorder. 7. History of alcohol abuse or illicit substance use disorder. 8. Known allergic diathesis or hypersensitivity to any component of the investigational agents. 9. Female participants who are pregnant, lactating, or of childbearing potential and unwilling to adhere to required contraceptive measures. 10. Concurrent use of immunosuppressive agents. 11. Any other condition that, in the opinion of the investigator, renders the participant unsuitable for study participation.
