Observational Study of HIV+ Deceased Donor Transplant for HIV+ Recipients

Studying HIV+ transplants from deceased donors to HIV+ recipients.

Recruiting
18 years and older
All
Phase N/A

This study looks at HIV-positive (HIV+) people who get organ transplants from HIV+ donors. It checks if this is safe and how well it works. Some people who get organs from donors without HIV (HIV-) will also be watched. The goal is to see how long the organ lasts and if there are more problems compared to organs from HIV- donors. They will look for issues like HIV superinfection (a new HIV infection on top of the existing one), organ rejection, kidney disease linked to HIV, and infections. People can join if they have HIV and need a transplant, are over 18, and can follow medical care advice.

  • Study checks safety of getting organs from HIV+ donors.
  • Participants need to be able to give consent and be over 18.
  • Pregnant or breastfeeding individuals cannot join.
