Advances in antiretroviral and immunosuppressive regimens have improved outcomes following solid organ transplantation in people living with HIV (PLWH). The HIV Organ Policy and Equity Act was conceived to reduce the discard of HIV-positive organs and improve access to transplant for PLWH. Nevertheless, PLWH continue to experience disproportionately low rates of transplant. This overview examines the hurdles to transplantation in PLWH with end-organ disease, the potential and realized impact of the HIV Organ Policy and Equity Act, and changes that could permit expanded access to organ transplant in this population.
