Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
Imaging of simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) infection by PET/CT has been successfully performed in nonhuman primates with a 64Cu-labeled SIV gp120-specific antibody called 7D3.\[15\] This study aims to use a similar approach in human with the 3BNC117 antibody. The 3BNC117 antibody has been successfully radiolabeled with iodine 123. The half-life of this radioisotope is appropriate for antibody imaging in nuclear medicine. Radiolabeled 123I 3BNC117 was shown to keep a good immunoreactivity for gp120. By using state of the art SPECT scanner a semi-quantitative image will be obtained. In addition, the absence of any chelator and the well known use of iodine-123 in clinic make it suitable for human intervention.
No HIV imaging in human has been achieved yet, which is however fundamental to understand some key steps in the pathogenesis of HIV-induced immunodeficiency. This research opens promising opportunities for drug and vaccine development. Indeed, identification of virus reservoirs in treated patients would facilitate the development of strategies for eradicating these reservoirs or for extending latency period.

Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
As discussed above, even though ART can suppress virus replication and can limit disease progression, it fails to eradicate the virus, and suppression requires lifelong therapy, which may have side effects and poses a risk of the development of resistance. New approaches necessary to prevent and treat HIV-1 infection in order to restrict the epidemic and to strengthen nascent efforts in finding a cure are gradually emerging. A new generation of highly potent broadly neutralizing antibodies (bNAbs) may represent a promising approach to combating HIV-1 infection.\[10\] Many sites on the viral envelope can be recognized by bNAbs.
The broadly neutralising antibody 3BNC117 directed against the HIV gp120 envelope protein, can mimic human CD4 binding and can neutralize 195 out of 237 HIV-1 strains.\[11\] The first human phase I dose escalation study using 3BNC117, has shown to be safe and effective in transiently reducing viraemia in chronic HIV-1 infected individuals.\[12\] A subsequent study (ClinicalTrial.gov identifier:NCT02018510) demonstrated improved host humoral immune response in infected individuals treated with 3BNC117 antibody as compared to untreated individuals.\[13\] Furthermore, a phase IIa open labelled trial by the same group of researchers at Rockefeller University, NY has been carried out to evaluate the capacity of this antibody to suppress viral rebound in infected individuals during a brief treatment interruption of anti-retroviral therapy.\[14\] Another such trial is currently ongoing (ClinicalTrial.gov identifier: NCT02446847).
