Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the role of highly active antiretroviral therapy (ART) in preventing perinatal transmission (PT) of HIV-1, focusing on when treatment is initiated relative to conception.
- An analysis of 8,075 mother-infant pairs from a French cohort found that 0.7% experienced PT, with zero transmissions among those who began ART before conception and maintained a low viral load (VL).
- Results show that starting ART earlier significantly lowers PT rates, highlighting the importance of VL control before and during pregnancy in HIV-infected women.
