Project Details

Description

A5314 is a phase II, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of low dose methotrexate (LDMTX) for the treatment for HIV-associated inflammation. The ancillary study will assess the impact of anti-inflammatory treatment with LDMTX on arterial inflammation, as assessed by FDG-PET/CT imaging in virally suppressed HIV-infected individuals already taking part in the main A5314 protocol.
