What this phase means
Phase 3: this treatment already looked useful in smaller studies. Now it is tested in a large group, often against standard care or a dummy treatment, to see if it should be approved.
Phase labels are FDA/ICH categories applied to the registry Phase field. They are not a finding that this study succeeded.
What the registry says happens
If you join, the listed intervention(s) are CAB ULA, RPV ULA, or CAB LA. The registry lists allocation as randomized. This study compares the how well it works, whether it is safe and how hard side effects are to live with of CAB ULA and RPV ULA administered with CAB long acting (LA) and RPV LA administered in adults and adolescents with HIV who are virologically suppressed on anti-retroviral therapy (ART).
They plan to enroll about 564 people at 84 sites. Taking part typically means taking a study drug (or dummy pill) plus check-ins.
