Antibodies Tip the Balance Towards an HIV Cure

Nancy L Haigwood et al. Trends Immunol. 2019 May.

Abstract

Long-term drug therapy for HIV-1 infection can prevent both disease progression and virus transmission, but treatment does not eradicate the virus. A new gene therapy study (Immunity 2019;50:567-575.e5) using human antibodies shows significant promise for a functional cure in a non-human primate model.
