California: Study Targets AIDS Therapy
June 13, 2003 The newly formed University of California-Davis AIDS
Clinical Trials Unit has started a study to learn whether
patients with HIV who have never been treated and are admitted to
a hospital with an AIDS-related infection should be given
antiretroviral drugs immediately or after treatment for the acute
infection is completed. The unit, housed at the Center for AIDS
Research, Education and Services, now has 10 clinical trials open
for people infected with the virus. The unit hopes to recruit up
to 100 trial participants per year. For more information,
telephone 916-914-6322 or visit www.ucdmc.ucdavis.edu/actu.
