Broadly neutralizing antibodies (bNAbs) have the potential to prevent HIV, and more researchers are turning to bNAbs as an alternative to antiretroviral therapy (ART), speakers said during the International AIDS Society meeting held July 23 to 26 in Brisbane, Australia.
Although huge strides have been made with antiretroviral therapy (ART) and prevention since HIV was first reported 42 years ago, there is still not an effective preventive vaccine or a scalable cure for those living with HIV. But broadly neutralizing antibodies (bNAbs) look to be a further step down the pathway to a cure, speakers said during the International AIDS Society meeting held July 23 to 26 in Brisbane, Australia.
The HIV journey is a roller coaster of highs and lows for the patients living with HIV and their families and loved ones but also for the community of researchers and clinicians who pour their hearts and souls into the work they do, said speakers at the International AIDS Society (IAS) 2023 conference in Brisbane, Australia.
Kissei Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd. has withdrawn its NDA in Japan for rovatirelin (KPS-0373) for the treatment of spinocerebellar degeneration.

Bacteria cells are masters of adaptation and evolution, and by better understanding how they adapt and evolve, researchers hope to develop better drugs to fight microbial resistance, which is increasingly becoming a global public health threat. Researchers from the antimicrobial resistance interdisciplinary research group at the Singapore-MIT Alliance for Research and Technology (SMART) sought to understand the mechanisms bacteria use to adapt against stressors, and they discovered a new stress signaling system that sheds light on a new mechanism of antimicrobial resistance.
