Where "it" = ivermectin.
Ivermectin is not being tested on HIV-1 rather it has been used to treat roundworm infestations (strongyloidiasis) in HIV + patients.
The completed phase II/III human clinical trials for dengue found that "clinical efficacy of ivermectin was not observed at this dosage regimen" where the dose regimen was 400 µg/kg or twice the recommended dosing for strongyloidiasis.
Of the more than 50 trials currently registered for SARS-CoV-2, nearly half have not even started recruiting participants and that's despite them being registered between 12 - 16 months ago. Form your own view as to whether any of those are likely to complete.
