Wednesday, March 17, 2021 Credit: HIV Vaccine Trials Network Intravenous infusions of an investigational anti-HIV antibody safely prevented acquisition of HIV strains sensitive to that antibody, but did not significantly reduce overall HIV acquisition among participants in two NIAID-sponsored clinical trials, according to a report published today in the New England Journal of Medicine. Results from these trials, known as the Antibody-Mediated Prevention (AMP) Studies, were first presented in January 2021 during the 4th HIV Research for Prevention Conference (HIV R4P). Insights gleaned from the AMP data lay the foundation for future development of long-acting antibody-based HIV prevention tools and, ultimately, an HIV vaccine. |
