Part of our mission at Massachusetts General
Hospital is to not only provide state of the
art clinical care, but also to offer you the
opportunity to participate in clinical research
trials. Many of our patients participate in a
variety of trials sponsored by the National Institute
of Health, Medical Foundations as well as Industry.
Several of our clinicians are also investigators
within these NIH funded research groups, including
the Partners AIDS Research Center, a member of
the Center for AIDS Research network, the Acute
Infection and Early Disease Research Program,
and the Harvard AIDS Clinical Trial Group. We
offer a broad range of ongoing trials that you
may be eligible to participate in, including
trials that test new medicines to treat HIV,
trials that study the immune system’s response
to HIV, and trials testing vaccines that may
either prevent HIV or strengthen the immune system’s
ability to fight HIV. At your clinic visit, your
provider may ask you if you are interested in
learning more about our clinical research program.
