Antibody gene transfer for HIV immunoprophylaxis

Nat Immunol. 2013 Jan;14(1):1-5. doi: 10.1038/ni.2480.

Abstract

Antibody gene transfer, which involves the delivery of genes that encode potent, broadly neutralizing antibodies to human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), is a promising new strategy for preventing HIV infection. A satellite symposium at the AIDS Vaccine 2012 conference brought together many of the groups working in this field.
