Objective: to characterize the clinical-epidemiological profile of people affected by HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis and leprosy in Paraná, between 2010 and 2019. Method: descriptive study, quantitative approach, with data from the Information System of Notifiable Diseases. The population was defined as new cases of HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis and leprosy reported between 2010 and 2019 in Paraná. For the analysis, descriptive statistical techniques were used. Results: between 2010 and 2019, 14,149 cases of HIV/AIDS, 7,868 of leprosy and 22,147 of tuberculosis were registered. There was a predominance of cases among men, with white race/color and (in)complete elementary school for the three diseases. There was a higher number of HIV/AIDS notifications among adolescents and adults up to 39 years old, tuberculosis among adults in an economically active phase and leprosy among adults over 50 years old. In addition, there was an increase in HIV/AIDS among homosexuals and bisexuals, deaths from tuberculosis and children/adolescents with leprosy. Conclusion: the profile of adult men with low schooling evidenced in this study was similar to the literature, which suggests possibilities of management, with a view to proposing strategies aimed at controlling HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis and leprosy at the state level.
