Where we are now
in RV254/SEARCH 010ART initiated
during acute HIV
restricted infection in PBMCs and TCM
Hypothesis 1Is early ART alone sufficient to cure in patients treated
during Fiebig I?
Hypothesis 2Will therapeutic HIV vaccine
+ early ART result in better viremic control vs. early ART alone?
GoalFunctional cure(Viremic control
without ART)
Hypothesis 3Will HDACi + early ART result in
depletion of reservoir/cure vs. early ART alone?
Hypothesis 4Will anti-inflammatory drugs +
early ART result in less immune activation and reservoir
vs. early ART alone?
A series of randomized trials are being developed
