This grant is for advancing our understanding of HIV and Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) co-infections among individuals with substance abuse disorders (SUDs). The National Institutes of Health (NIH) seeks to fund research addressing critical gaps, including the profound impact of substance abuse on HIV and HIV/HCV disease progression. It aims to explore the complex pathogenic interactions between HIV and HCV, as well as the associated hepatic and non-hepatic co-morbidities in those with SUDs. Furthermore, this opportunity supports studies on the effectiveness of interferon-free direct acting antiviral (DAA) drug regimens for treating HIV/HCV co-infections in this vulnerable population. The initiative is aligned with the NIH HIV/AIDS Research Priorities and the HHS National Viral Hepatitis Action Plan.
