A landscape analysis of HIV cure-related clinical research in 2019.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

In 2018, we surveyed investigators conducting HIV cure-related clinical research, drawing on information from the online listing established by Treatment Action Group (TAG). The purpose of the survey was to facilitate a landscape analysis of the field. In 2019, we fielded a second survey in order to provide updated information and assess any shifts in the landscape.

Methods

Trials and observational studies listed as of August 16, 2019 formed the sample set. Survey questions addressed funding, trial development, recruitment, enrollment, participant demographics, antiretroviral therapy status, HIV reservoir assays, invasive procedures, study completion, data sharing and dissemination plans. A survey was sent to the contact(s) for each study. Supplemental information
