Prophylactic treatment with broadly neutralizing antibody VRC01 selects for escape mutants after infection in Antibody-Mediated Prevention trials.
Broadly neutralizing antibodies (bnAbs) show promise in HIV prevention, yet viral escape remains a challenge. In the Antibody-Mediated Prevention (AMP) trials, the CD4 binding site (CD4bs) bnAb VRC01 blocked acquisition by VRC01-sensitive strains. However, its influence on viral evolution post acquisition is not fully...
