Vibeke Klastrup presenting metanalysis of ATI studies showing smaller reservoir size and interventions such as #bNAbs are associated with duration of viral control during treatment interruptions.

How to interpret and how to manage low level viremia? Hearing now from @JesperGunst with important insight from amazing session chair @Rokx1 at #YINGconf24
Onto my fave topic - analytical treatment interruptions: where ART is stopped in an #HIVcure study.
Viral rebound.
Tongcui Ma showed T cell features (pic 1) and Mauro Garcia showed IgG antibodies (pic 2) impacted time to viral rebound.
Use as biomarkers for TVR?

In people with HIV-1 undergoing antiretroviral treatment interruption, lefitolimod broadly neutralizing antibodies did not delay viral rebound more than antibodies alone, raising questions of how to optimize combination immunotherapy to control HIV-1 nature.com/articles/s41591-0…
Results from the Titan Study show promise that broadly neutralising antibodies (BNABS) are a component of a future HIV Cure. hivcure.com.au/2023/09/13/bn…
Results from the TITAN trial is out.
First of all, a huge thanks to the participants and their families for investing in these trials.

No added benefit of combining lefitolimod with bNAbs compared to bNAbs alone.
The bNAbs are doing something and support further investigation as part of curative strategies.
Additionally, we need better assays for bNAb prediction.
