New-Generation High-Potency and Designer Antibodies: Role in HIV-1 Treatment

Abstract

Broadly neutralizing antibodies (bNAbs) have been evaluated as promising agents in the fight against infectious diseases. HIV-1-specific bNAbs, in particular, have been tested in both preventive and therapeutic modalities. Multiple bNAbs have been isolated, characterized, and assessed in vitro and in vivo, but no single antibody appears to possess the breadth and potency that may be needed if it is to be used in the treatment of HIV-1 infection. With the technological advances of the past decades, novel and more effective bNAbs have been identified or engineered for higher neutralizing potency, greater breadth, and increased serum half-life. In this review, we discuss the development of a new generation of anti-HIV-1 bNAbs and their potential to be used clinically for treatment and prevention of HIV-1 infection.
