Brief description/objective

New HIV treatment strategies are needed. Over the past year, substantial progress has been made in the development of new antiretroviral agents, although the journey from drug discovery to wide clinical use is completed by only a small number of medications. Strategies to enhance immune control and either discontinue or decrease the need for prolonged HAART are under study. The promising preliminary results in very early PHI are in contrast with the minor successes in chronic infection.
