從愛滋病被發現至今，其治療方式亦與時俱進。現在，患者能透過服用數十種藥物結合的複合劑來控制病毒，以防人體免疫系統受到嚴重損害，進而導致更嚴重、往往致命的後果。

但要控制愛滋病需要時時保持警戒。只要少服用幾劑藥物就可能給予病毒產生抗藥性的機會，並使這樣的新病毒大量複製而充斥全身。

在一篇發表於《新英格蘭醫學雜誌》（New England Journal of Medicine）的研究中，來自台灣聯合生物製藥公司（United BioPharma）的研究人員傳來令人振奮的消息。他們發現似乎僅需要定期注射藥物，就能成功阻斷愛滋病毒，同時改變當前每天都得服用的用藥模式。連同此研究結果在內，已有越來越多研究認為愛滋患者或許能在不危及健康的情況下，在緊湊的服藥過程中喘口氣。 繼續閱讀 →

By the time I was old enough to ask my grandmother questions about her life, it was too late. All I had were skeletons of stories I heard from my mom. I knew that it had been difficult for my grandmother when her parents, Irish immigrants on the vaudeville circuit, left her behind to help care for her younger brother when they traveled. But who cared for her? I heard about how, after her parents became successful radio stars, she was once set up on a date with Frank Sinatra, but when he arrived, with my grandmother waiting to make an entrance, he used language she didn’t like, so she sent word that she wouldn’t be going. But what had he said? I knew that she and my grandfather divorced not long after my mom was born, and that my grandmother subsequently spent time in the hospital. But for what illness? When I’d ask her, she’d respond about the weather. And maybe this was because she didn’t want to talk about it. Or maybe she didn’t remember. For years, her body was well but her mind was dying. It was like watching the electric grid of a city shut off one neighborhood at a time, until almost every street was dark. 繼續閱讀 →

Administration of a single broadly neutralizing human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)–specific antibody to HIV-infected persons leads to the development of antibody-resistant virus in the absence of antiretroviral therapy (ART). It is possible that monotherapy with UB-421, an antibody that blocks the virus-binding site on human CD4+ T cells, could induce sustained virologic suppression without induction of resistance in HIV-infected persons after analytic treatment interruption. 繼續閱讀 →

HIV treatment has come a long way since the early days of the epidemic. Patients can now take various combinations of dozens of medications keep the virus under control and halt their disease from decimating their immune systems and leading to more serious, often fatal outcomes.

But harnessing HIV requires daily vigilance. Missing doses of the pills can give the virus the chance to develop resistance to the drugs and lead to a surge in new copies of HIV that flood the body.

In a new study published in the New England Journal of Medicine, researchers at Taiwan-based United BioPharma report encouraging results with a single injection that seems to stymie HIV as well as daily pill regimens. The results add to a growing number of studies suggesting that patients may be able to take pill holidays without putting their health at risk. 繼續閱讀 →

Regular infusions of an antibody that blocks the HIV binding site on human immune cells may have suppressed levels of HIV for up to four months in people undergoing a short-term pause in their antiretroviral therapy (ART) regimens, according to a report published online today in The New England Journal of Medicine. Results of the Phase 2, open-label study indicate the antibody, known as UB-421, was safe and did not induce the production of antibody-resistant HIV. The study was supported in part by the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), a component of the National Institutes of Health, and United Biopharma, Inc. 繼續閱讀 →
