Special antibodies could lead to HIV vaccine

Around one percent of people infected with HIV produce antibodies that block most strains of the virus. These broadly acting antibodies provide the key to developing an effective vaccine against HIV. Researchers have now shown that the genome of the HI virus is a decisive factor in determining which antibodies are formed.

Novel HIV vaccine candidate is safe and induces immune response in healthy adults and monkeys

New research published in The Lancet shows that an experimental HIV-1 vaccine regimen is well-tolerated and generated comparable and robust immune responses against HIV in healthy adults and rhesus monkeys. Moreover, the vaccine candidate protected against infection with an HIV-like virus in monkeys.

Healthy competition intensifies 30-year quest for HIV vaccine

By funding two similar projects at once, the EU aims to inspire a sense of friendly competition between them. But the programmes share researchers and conduct complementary work, careful not to duplicate their efforts. Both Prof. Shattock and Prof. Pantaleo say that either European team would be happy if the other found a vaccine that worked.

We can end HIV soon if people have equal access to HIV drugs as treatment and as PrEP, and have free choice over whether to take them.

Launched today, the Community Consensus Statement is a basic set of principles aimed at making sure that happens.

The Community Consensus Statement is a joint initiative of AVAC, EATG, MSMGF, GNP+, HIV i-Base, the International HIV/AIDS Alliance, ITPC and NAM/aidsmap
