AI Summary

Researchers tested an experimental antibody in infant monkeys infected with an HIV‑like virus. The antibody was given as a single dose. After treatment, the virus remained in remission for four years, showing no detectable activity in the monkeys. The study suggests that targeting the virus’s hiding places inside immune cells may help keep it suppressed without ongoing medication.
