C3ID: Center for the Comprehensive Care of Immune Deficiency

The Research Effort

Through research efforts conducted at C3ID, clients have the opportunity,should they choose, to participate in exciting new trials of HIV medications. While there is no cure in sight, new medications have greatly improved the quality of life for most people with HIV.

New medications pending FDA approval are made available, often six months to a year in advance, from pharmaceutical companies through research efforts at C3ID.

A clinical research nurse assists the physicians in following clients in these trials. Please call LuAnn Gahagan, R.N., at (757) 446-7973 to find out more about the studies open for enrollment.
