Abstract
This article reviews the novelties in the prevention and treatment of HIV infection as well as the perspectives for a potential cure. The PrEP is a key component in the prevention of infection and the control of the epidemic. In order to decrease long-term toxicities, two-drug antiretroviral regimens are being implemented. Long-acting injectable molecules show promising efficacy and safety and are long awaited for patients tired of taking daily pills. Concerning adverse events, the association between integrase inhibitors and weight gain as well as recent data on the safety of dolutegravir during pregnancy are presented. Finally, a second case of sustained virological suppression in a patient who received a stem cell transplant with a mutation of the co-receptor CCR5 was reported, renewing hopes for possible cure by gene therapy.
