Story summary
  • OHSU researchers reported that a one-time, three-part regimen cleared HIV in newborn primates within three days.
  • The findings were published in Nature Microbiology on August 10, 2026.
  • The regimen combined neutralizing antibodies, antiretroviral drugs, and leronlimab, which blocks HIV via CCR5.
  • Researchers plan to begin clinical trials, likely with newly exposed adults, after the primate study showed permanent clearance.
