Einstein researchers demonstrate a novel approach to treating AIDS

--then we could start to think about curing HIV-infected patients."

Dr. Goldstein, also a senior author of the study, notes that radioimmunotherapy might be particularly useful for people newly exposed to HIV, such as healthcare workers with needlestick injuries. "Studies show that giving highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) to people within 24 hours of exposure to HIV can prevent infection from developing," he says. "But if several days have passed, the virus is able to infect enough cells to cause a chronic HIV infection. By combining HAART with radioimmunotherapy, we may be able to prevent lifelong infection in these people by eliminating those initially infected cells."

Clinical trials using radioimmunotherapy for treating HIV infection are now being planned.
