Viral suppression is vital for improving health outcomes among people living with HIV and reducing transmission. 1 In the 10 years since UNAIDS introduced ambitious, three-part targets for achieving viral suppression in people with HIV, care recipients in resource-limited settings have faced economical and psychological barriers to remaining in care. 2 Innovations in care delivery that can ...
FDA-Approved HIV Medicines
FDA-Approved HIV Medicines. Last Reviewed: July 31, 2024. Treatment with HIV medicines is called antiretroviral therapy (ART). ART is recommended for everyone with HIV, and people with HIV should start ART as soon as possible. People on ART take a combination of HIV medicines (called an HIV treatment regimen) every day or by schedule (injections).

Forty Years Since the Epidemic: Modern Paradigms in HIV Diagnosis and
Abstract. Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is a viral infection that, when transmitted through the exchange of certain bodily fluids, destroys various immune cells and contributes to an overall weakened immune system. If left untreated, HIV progresses to acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) - a chronic, life-threatening condition that ...
Research Toward HIV Cure
Investing in research to find a cure for HIV is focused on two broad aims: sustained viral remission and, in the longer term, viral eradication. Viral latency and sanctuaries. Latent HIV reservoirs—small amounts of HIV that persist in people taking ART—present a significant challenge to finding a cure for HIV. Latent reservoirs remain in ...
The innovative research behind HIV/AIDS treatment
Thanks to innovative research, scientists learned how the HIV virus that causes AIDS replicates and how the immune system responds to the virus. Today, many people with HIV take just one pill a day to suppress the virus, and treatment is continuing to evolve. In this video, Dr. Stacey Rizza, Mayo Clinic infectious disease physician and HIV ...

Future Directions for HIV Treatment Research
A major goal of NIAID-supported research on HIV treatment today is to develop long-acting therapies that—unlike current antiretrovirals, which require daily dosing—could be taken only once a week, once a month, or even less often. Such long-acting therapies might be easier for some people to stick to than daily pills, and might also be less ...
HIV/AIDS Research
HIV/AIDS Research. First reported in the United States in 1981, AIDS (Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome) is caused by HIV (Human Immunodeficiency virus). HIV weakens a person's ability to fight infections by weakening the immune system. Although not curable, HIV is a manageable, chronic disease. Our dedicated HIV researchers conduct basic ...

Landmark trial may herald new era in HIV prevention
New HIV infections have come down from more than 2 million globally in 2010 to 1.3 million last year. But a report released last week by the Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS (UNAIDS) shows progress has stalled, and the world seems likely to miss its target of just 370,000 infections by 2025.
New findings offer potential breakthrough in HIV cure research

A Breakthrough in HIV Prevention
Globally, about half of all HIV infections occur in women, yet women constitute only a small proportion of at-risk individuals taking pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP; NEJM JW Infect Dis Apr 8 2024 and JAMA 2024 Mar 19; 331:930). Now, in a manufacturer-sponsored study (PURPOSE-1), investigators evaluated whether twice-yearly lenacapavir (a long-acting HIV capsid inhibitor) is efficacious at ...
