I'm in the CDC profession doing HIV prevention and I'll answer that.

AIDS has become a clichéd topic. It has been more than 30 years since the discovery of AIDS, and although people are always looking for ways to cure AIDS, it is unfortunate that we have not yet found a way to completely eliminate the HIV virus from the human body, so it is certainly untrue to hear that a new drug has been developed to cure AIDS. At present, we can only adopt the treatment method of "treating the symptoms but not the root cause", and human beings still have a long way to go on the road to overcome AIDS.

The world's first cured AIDS patient, the "Berlin Patient", who also suffered from leukemia, became the world's first AIDS patient to be cured when his HIV disappeared after a bone marrow transplant. Unfortunately, this miracle cannot be duplicated, and the scientific community has to look for other breakthroughs.

The University of Hong Kong announced in April 2018 that its research team has developed a new antibody drug that can protect cells from being infected by HIV and remove the AIDS virus, and the drug has been successfully tested on mice. It is understood that the drug can bind to the CD4 protein on the surface of the host immune cells, which can carry out a "precision strike" against the HIV virus, but also protect healthy cells, thereby controlling the spread of HIV. However, the drug has not been applied to the clinic, and there is still no effective treatment program.

Recently, Nature, a top scientific journal, published a case study of a Londoner with HIV-1 (human immunodeficiency virus, which causes acquired immunodeficiency syndrome, or AIDS) who underwent stem cell transplantation and continued to be in remission 18 months after stopping the medication. Some researchers believe that although it is too early to say that AIDS has been cured, the "London patient" may have been in "long-term remission" from the virus. This means that he may become the world's second AIDS "cure" after the "Berlin Patient," and the world's nearly 37 million people living with AIDS may see the light of day. But this approach is not applicable to all patients, and there may be hope for a variety of new treatment strategies, including gene therapy.

Therefore, at this stage, AIDS is still mainly preventive. The most realistic and effective way of prevention is to target its transmission routes, to regulate and change people's behaviors through health education and behavioral interventions, and to block the transmission of HIV through blood, sex and mother-to-child transmission by regulating behaviors. AIDS will certainly be cured in the future, but cleanliness will always be an important safeguard to ensure one's safety.

I heard that a new drug has been developed that can cure AIDS, is that true?

Hello, as a doctor specializing in HIV treatment to answer your question!

The right answer is that no drug has been developed in the world to cure AIDS.

But in recent years, there are many new drugs abroad, which can effectively control the harm of HIV on the human body and the side effects are very small, for example, this year, the introduction of the three-in-one drug Suimei Kai, which has been used in the United States for more than three years, the effect is very good, and in the United States has been one of the first choice of drugs, and this year, the domestic long-lasting injections of "Aibeowitai" and "Jiefukang" are also on the market. This year, the domestic long-acting injection "Abovatex" and the domestic four-in-one single tablet "Jefukang" are also listed on the market, so AIDS patients can have more drugs to choose from.

It is only a matter of time before functional AIDS cures and cures are also being worked on by a research team at Wuhan University of Science and Technology in the second half of 2018 on AIDS cure scientific research.

Live a healthy life with optimism and treat AIDS as a chronic disease!

Well, I hope that helps!

About infectious diseases can be concerned and private message Dr. Li Ping, health road with me!

Drugs commonly used to treat AIDS include tenofovir + lamivudine + dorivirine, abacavir + lamivudine + dolutegravir, stavudine + lamivudine + efavirenz, and so on, and there have been related new drugs developed, but there has not yet been the new drug that the owner wants.

I heard that a new drug has been developed that can cure AIDS, is that true?

The country is currently able to produce zidovudine, lamivudine, tenofovir, nevirapine, efavirenz, dehydroxyinosine, stavudine, indinavir, emtricitabine, zidovudine / lamivudine, lamivudine / tenofovir, nevirapine / zidovudine / lamivudine, nevirapine / stavudine / lamivudine, and other APIs and some preparations, is already quite a lot of varieties.

AIDS is Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS); HIV is the Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV), a retrovirus that causes human immunodeficiency and is responsible for AIDS.

A milestone in the process of controlling and treating AIDS has been the "cocktail" therapy proposed by Chinese-American scientist Daiyi He, through which the viral load in the blood of AIDS patients can be rapidly reduced and CD4 cells and T-lymphocytes are rapidly increased. The "cocktail" treatment resulted in a rapid decrease in viral load and a rapid increase in CD4 cells and T lymphocytes. Since then, it has been used globally. It has been widely used as a routine treatment for AIDS.

A new generation of fusion enzyme inhibitor, epoetide, independently developed by Frontier Biologics in China, has been marketed as a long-acting injectable that greatly reduces the frequency of administration and improves patient compliance. in the early 1990s, the team screened for an HIV vaccine strain, which has been modified to immunize rhesus monkeys. Prof. Linqi Zhang also reported an innovative approach to HIV vaccines.

Recently, the University of Hong Kong has developed a new type of antibody drug that can protect against and remove the AIDS virus, and it has been successfully experimented on mice, and there are more foreign scientists and pharmaceutical companies working tirelessly for the research and development of an AIDS vaccine.

The research of anti-AIDS traditional Chinese medicine has also had some success, mainly used to improve patients' immunity and reduce infection. Single-flavored drugs such as licorice, Huanglian, danshen, smallpox pollen, etc., and traditional Chinese medicine compound formulas have also been introduced one after another, enriching the treasure trove of traditional Chinese medicines for the treatment of AIDS.

I am Pharmacist Wang, insisting on spreading knowledge of diseases in simple and easy-to-understand words, and dedicating my own small contribution to a healthy China. If you think my answer is helpful to you, please leave a like! In addition, if you still have related questions, welcome to leave a message, we discuss together!

According to the World Health Organization, 76.1 million people worldwide are infected with AIDS, and 39 million of them have died of AIDS. Even with advances in treatment, HIV continues to ravage the globe, with 2 million people still tragically infected each year. Doesn't that sound like an AIDS phobia?

Not to worry! The U.S. Food and Drug Administration passed PrEP, a small blue pill that can prevent HIV, in 2012! PrEP's full name is Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis, which means pre-exposure prophylaxis, and it prevents HIV infection in humans to a certain extent. It has been approved by the United States, France and Canada and is now available in China. Studies have shown that as long as it is taken daily as required, it can reduce the risk of HIV infection by 90% and has almost zero side effects on the human body.

So how does PrEP work? The body's immune system has a helper T-cell that protects us when we come into contact with bacteria or viruses, but when the T-cell comes into contact with HIV, it loses its defenses and is knocked out, infected, and then expanded by HIV until the immune system collapses. Now let's rewind and start again, if a body that has been taking PrEP for a few weeks encounters HIV, because the digested tablets form a shield outside the T-cells, the same cells that are attacked by HIV are defended by PrEP, which successfully prevents the virus from infecting them.

It is important to note, however, that this pill only targets HIV and is also not 100% preventive. You need to get a doctor's instruction and medical checkup before purchasing and using it, and you need regular checkups during its use. What do you think about this new drug?

Technology A.D., takes you through the most innovative technologies, the most creative products.

For more, welcome to Tech AD!

I can answer with certainty that the current medical level and technology have not yet developed drugs that can completely cure AIDS. Although there is no new cure, but as long as you insist on following the doctor's method of taking anti-AIDS drugs, and with the patient's life, diet, mentality, or can greatly extend the patient's life.

At present, regardless of the new antiviral therapy drugs and old antiviral drugs, can not be separated from the premise of life-long medication, the so-called innovative drugs can only be in the reduction of toxic side effects, but not up to the innovation of the cure.

No, it's just that recently a pair of CCR5 gene-edited babies were born, claiming to be immune to AIDS, and there was a lot of national and international uproar, but actually it can't be.

First reported by the CDC on June 5, 1981AIDS (loanword)At present, 36.9 million people around the world are infected with AIDS, and the number of deaths has reached 12 million, of which there are about 750,000 AIDS patients in China, AIDS is extremely harmful, the mortality rate is extremely high, and it poses a great threat to the health of the whole mankind, although the "cocktail therapy" can effectively control the progress of AIDS, so far it has not been developed. Although "cocktail therapy" is effective in controlling the progress of AIDS, no effective drug has yet been developed to cure AIDS, and there is no effective vaccine that can be used for prevention.

Recently, there have been a number of successes in the anti-AIDS field, starting with the emergence of the second AIDS patient ever to be successfully cured "London patient". Then there's the Lancet, which reports that antiretroviral therapy has successfully reduced the risk of HIV transmission to zero.Humanity has never been so close to eradicating AIDS.。

Good news from China in the anti-AIDS field.

China News Service website (chinanews.com)Report:Wuhan University of Science and TechnologyCollege of Life Sciences and HealthZhang Tongcun、Koo Chiu Kong (1938-), Hong Kong politician, President of the Republic of China from 2008The two professors developed a new pathway for CAR-T' therapy that kills HIV-infected cells and successfully cured one patient.

pass (a bill or inspection etc)Genetic engineering means to redesign CAR-T cellsthat is amplified in vitro and then infused back into the patient. TheCAR-T cellsSpecifically recognizes and destroys HIV-infected cells in vivo.

The method has recently been authorized by a national patent under the name: "A recombinant gene construct of a chimeric antigen receptor for the treatment of HIV infection and its application".

Zhang TongcunProf. is one of the earliest scholars engaged in CAR-T research and clinical treatment in China.Koo Chiu Kong (1938-), Hong Kong politician, President of the Republic of China from 2008After more than a decade of HIV research, the two teamed up three years ago to specialize in the application of CAR-T for the treatment of AIDS.

They completed clinical registration of CAR-T for HIV in October 2017 in the International Registry of Clinical Trials, theand conduct human clinical research trials. Currently.Two cases of AIDS treatedOne case was treated for 3 months and the HIV indicators dropped rapidly; one case was completely cleared after 9 months of treatment. In one case, HIV indicators dropped rapidly after 3 months of treatment; in another case, HIV was completely eliminated after 9 months of treatment.Clinical studies have demonstrated that CAR-T not only neutralizes HIV in the blood, but also kills infected HIV cells in a dormant state.

Prof. Zhang Tongcun said that he is currently strengthening cooperation with relevant hospitals to recruit volunteers with HIV, expand clinical trials and accumulate clinical cases; and seeking R&D funding to develop new CAR-T drugs as soon as possible.

Good life from the beginning of health, the beginning of health, health science professional media!

Not yet, I'm told.

I've heard that there is actually a drug that can cure it already, it's just that the chain of interest won't allow this drug to come out for a while! I wonder if that's true!
