Decay of HIV DNA in the Reservoir and the Impact of Short Treatment Interruption in Kenyan Infants.

ABSTRACT: We compared change in HIV reservoir DNA following continued antiretroviral therapy (ART) vs short treatment interruption (TI) in early ART-treated Kenyan infants. While HIV DNA in the reservoir decayed with continued ART, HIV DNA levels were similar to pre-TI HIV DNA reservoir levels in most children after short TI.
