Title:
METHODS FOR IDENTIFYING AND TREATING HIV PERSISTENCE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2019/140147
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Methods for identifying or monitoring or treating HIV persistence or the development of an HIV-comorbidity in an HIV+ subject involve certain selected glycan dysregulations. In certain embodiments, hyposialylation in the total IgG glycome or total plasma glycome of an HIV+ subject during or after antiretroviral therapy is an indication of HIV persistence and can be predictive of developing co-morbidities. Methods of treating HIV persistence or preventing developing co-morbidities involves modifying or manipulating the selected glycan by administering therapeutic agents that will modify the levels of the selected glycan, a precursor thereof, or another component of its pathway.
