Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) remains a global health challenge, and novel approaches to improve HIV control are significantly important. The cell and gene therapy product AGT103-T was previously evaluated (NCT04561258) for safety, immunogenicity, and persistence in seven patients for up to 180 days post infusion. In this study, we sought to investigate the impact of AGT103-T treatment upon analytical treatment interruptions (ATIs).

Article Synopsis
  • A study was conducted to investigate the prevalence and outcomes of community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) in immunocompromised hosts (ICHs) compared to non-ICHs among hospitalized adults in Louisville from June 2014 to May 2016.
  • Out of 7449 patients with CAP, 10% were identified as immunocompromised, with advanced-stage cancer being the most common condition.
  • The study found that ICHs had significantly higher mortality rates at hospitalization (9% vs 5%), 30 days (24% vs 11%), 6 months (44% vs 21%), and 1 year (53% vs 27%) compared to non-ICHs, highlighting the impact of socioeconomic
