Beyond viral suppression: Next-generation HIV therapeutics target reservoirs, broadly neutralising antibodies, and gene editing
Long-acting injectables have transformed HIV management, but viral suppression alone is not enough. Researchers are advancing mRNA vaccines, broadly neutralizing antibodies, latency-reversing agents, pediatric immune strategies, and gene editing to eliminate reservoirs and achieve remission. Here’s how next-generation HIV therapeutics aim to move beyond lifelong ART.
