There is renewed optimism that the goal of developing a highly effective AIDS vaccine is attainable. The HIV-1 vaccine field has seen its first trial of a vaccine candidate that prevents infection. Although modest in efficacy, this finding, along with the recent discovery that the human immune system can produce broadly neutralizing antibodies capable of inhibiting greater than 90% of circulating viruses, provides a guide for the rational design of vaccines and protection by passive immunization. Together, these findings will help shape the next generation of HIV vaccines.
人们对研发高效艾滋病疫苗的目标再次感到乐观。HIV-1 疫苗领域已经进行了首次疫苗候选物临床试验,该疫苗可以预防感染。尽管效果有限,但这一发现,以及最近发现人类免疫系统可以产生广泛中和抗体,能够抑制超过 90%的循环病毒,为疫苗的合理设计和被动免疫保护提供了指导。这些发现将共同帮助塑造下一代 HIV 疫苗。
