This is a long-term monitoring study for people with HIV infection. Researchers want to understand how HIV progresses over time in people receiving standard medical care, and to learn which immune system markers might predict better or worse outcomes. You would receive standard HIV treatment as usual, while the study team regularly measures your viral load, immune status, and overall health.
Although HIV treatment has improved dramatically, doctors still don't fully understand which patients will do better or worse over the long term, or what immune system changes predict the best outcomes. This study aims to fill those gaps by following HIV patients carefully over many years.

You would continue receiving your regular HIV medical care at the study clinic. At each visit, the research team will check your immune status and viral load through blood tests, perform routine safety laboratory tests, and collect blood samples for research and storage. The study is designed to follow you over a long period, with ongoing monitoring to track how your HIV infection and immune system respond to treatment over time.
