Clinical Trial Summary

This study is being conducted to explore the feasibility of implementing targeted birth HIV testing of high-risk neonates using facility-based point-of-care (POC) HIV diagnostics, and to improve the ability to implement the best standard-of-care treatment possible. Infants found to be HIV infected will be immediately offered enrollment into a dolutegravir (DTG) antiretroviral treatment study cohort (if maternal consent is granted) or referred for treatment at a government facility. Infants who enter the study treatment cohort will be prospectively followed through 96 weeks of age. ART will follow Botswana guidelines.
