Clinical Advancements in HIV Education Center

According to the CDC, a significant proportion of patients who know they are infected with HIV and are prescribed antiretroviral therapy (ART) do not attain adequate virologic and immunologic responses due to treatment burdens, including poor retention in care, nonadherence, unfavorable pharmacokinetics, or other biologic or socioeconomic factors. However, research and treatment advances aimed at reducing pill-burden, treatment resistance, proactive prevention, early detection, and rapid treatment initiation are changing how HIV is treated.

This Education Center is intended to update clinicians on the latest developments in HIV research and treatment in order to help them manage patients with the disease.
