DNA/gp120 HIV Vaccine for Human Immunodeficiency Virus Infection
Phase 1
Waitlist Available
Research Sponsored by Worcester HIV Vaccine
Eligibility Criteria Checklist
Specific guidelines that determine who can or cannot participate in a clinical trial Must have
Be between 18 and 65 years old
Timeline
Screening 3 weeks
Treatment Varies
Follow Up measured through participants' last study visit, at month 20 to 24, depending on which part of the study participants are enrolled in
Summary
This trial is testing two types of HIV vaccines in healthy adults who do not have HIV. The vaccines use small parts of the virus to train the immune system to recognize and fight HIV. Some participants will receive an extra substance to help boost their immune response.
Eligible Conditions
- Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) Infection
- HIV Suppression
