What this research studies
This leadership center organizes and manages a global network of clinics, laboratories, and data teams to design and run clinical trials focused on HIV and related infections. They write study plans, train site staff, oversee lab and data work, and monitor quality and safety across trials. The center works closely with a statistics and data management team and international partners to test new drugs and care strategies. If you join a trial, you would enroll at a participating site that is part of this network.
Who could benefit from this research
Good fit: Ideal candidates are people living with HIV — including those with tuberculosis or hepatitis B co-infection when a specific study focuses on these conditions — who meet a trial's eligibility rules at participating sites.
Not a fit: People without HIV or those who do not meet a study's enrollment criteria may not receive direct benefit from these trials.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this work could speed the development of safer, more effective HIV, TB, and hepatitis B treatments and improve care for people living with these infections.
How similar studies have performed: The ACTG has a long track record of trials that shaped current HIV treatments, so this network approach has been successful in the past.
