Optimizing HIV Therapy for AIDS-Related Lymphoma Patients

Official title: Optimization of Antiretroviral Therapy in Patients With AIDS-Related Lymphoma During Anti-Lymphoma Treatment: A Multicenter Prospective Non-Randomized Controlled Study

Run by Shanghai Public Health Clinical Center · NCT07727642 · Data updated 2026-11-12

This study tests whether long-acting HIV medicines given during lymphoma treatment work better at keeping the virus suppressed than standard oral therapy in adults with AIDS-related lymphoma.

Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Adults (18+) with confirmed HIV infection and AIDS-related lymphoma who are receiving anti-lymphoma treatment and are willing to use antiretroviral therapy.

Probably not a fit

Patients unlikely to benefit include those with life expectancy under 6 months, significant comorbidities, contraindications to study drugs, or those unable to adhere to follow-up.

What this trial studies

This interventional study compares three antiretroviral strategies in adults with AIDS-related lymphoma who are undergoing anti-lymphoma treatment. Participants are randomized or selected to receive: oral ART alone, oral ART plus long-acting albuvirtide, or long-acting cabotegravir with rilpivirine. The goal is to see which approach maintains virological suppression, supports immune recovery, and has acceptable safety during lymphoma therapy. Outcomes include virological control, immune response, occurrences of virological failure or low-level viremia, and overall safety. The study is conducted at Shanghai Public Health Clinical Center under the lead sponsorship of the center.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, long-acting ART strategies could improve viral suppression and simplify treatment during cancer therapy for people with HIV and AIDS-related lymphoma.

How similar studies have gone: Prior research has explored long-acting ART in various settings, but data in the context of concurrent lymphoma treatment are limited, making this approach relatively novel for ARL patients.
