Tests treatment safety and results for HIV Infections
Official title A Study to Evaluate the Effectiveness of Long-acting (LA) Cabotegravir (CAB) + Rilpivirine (RPV) LA When Given to Participants With Detectable HIV-1
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06694805
What this study is testing
What is CAB LA + RPV LA?
CAB LA + RPV LA is an investigational medicine, given as a monthly pill taken by mouth, being studied as a potential treatment for hiv infections.
Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.
- What it's testing
- This study will assess how effective, safe, and long-lasting a long-acting antiretroviral therapy (ART) using CAB LA + RPV LA is for people with HIV who still have detectable virus levels despite being on oral ART. The study will also consider feedback from patients on their experience with this treatment.
