VGV-1 is a potential salvage therapy for treatment of HIV infected people who have failed anti-retroviral therapy.
- Mechanism
- Curator reviewed
VGV-1 is appears to work through a mechanism that involves the use of the immune system, rather than attacking the virus itself. VGV-1 also has minimal side effects and is projected to be cost-effective. Because a treatment cycle with VGV-1 consists of just 16 injections, it is substantially less expensive than ART or HAART which require that drugs be taken once a day, or even more frequently.
- Primary indication
- Investigated for use/treatment in HIV infection.Curator reviewed
