Portugal105 participantsStarted 2019-12-17

Plain-language summary

The purpose of this study is to determine the proportion of newly diagnosed participants with Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV)-1 (naive participants) with virologic response at Week 48-defined as HIV-1 Ribonucleic acid (RNA) less than (\<) 50 copies/milliliter (mL) (Food And Drug Administration snapshot) - after the implementation of the Test \& Treat model of care and in a historical cohort.

Inclusion Criteria: * Prospective cohort: Newly diagnosed with Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV)-1 evidenced by any of the following: or HIV Rapid Antibody positive; HIV Immunoassay positive; positive HIV (p24) antigen; or detectable HIV-1 Ribonucleic acid (RNA) Viral Load and non-reactive antibody/antigen assays. HIV-1 RNA Viral Load must be confirmed within one week of initial HIV-1 RNA Viral Load test * Prospective cohort: Antiretroviral (ARV) treatment-naïve who will initiate treatment. Retrospective cohort: Dates of HIV-1 diagnosis and ARV treatment initiation available in clinical records * Prospective and Retrospective cohorts: Must sign \[and/or their legally-acceptable representative where applicable must sign,\] a participation agreement/ Informed Consent Form (ICF) allowing data collection and source data verification in accordance with local requirements Exclusion Criteria: * Known Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS)-defining condition * Known history of clinically relevant hepatic disease or hepatitis that in the investigator's judgement is not compatible with Antiretroviral Therapy (ART) * Known history of chronic renal insufficiency, defined as having an eGFR less than (\<) 50 milliliter/minute (ml/min) according to the Cockcroft-Gault formula * Known active severe infections (other than HIV-1 infection) requiring parenteral antibiotic or antifungal therapy within 30 days prior to screening * Known history of cirrhosis as diagnosed based on local pra…

Questions worth asking your doctor

Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.

1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?

Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.

Questions for the trial coordinator

The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.

1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?

A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
