Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Background:

Antiretroviral therapy (ART) can suppress HIV to undetectable levels in people, but the virus rebounds quickly if the drug treatment is stopped; this is because HIV can remain dormant in a pool of blood cells called the persistent viral reservoir (PVR). Yet lifelong ART is expensive and can lead to serious side effects over the long term. Some drugs may be more effective at reducing the PVR.

Objective:

To see if 2 study drugs (3BNC117-LS and 10-1074-LS) are safe and if they can lower the number of HIV-infected blood cells in people with HIV who are on ART.

Eligibility:

People aged 18 to 70 years with HIV who are on ART.

Design:

Participants will be screened. They will have a physical exam and blood and urine tests. They will undergo leukapheresis. Leukapheresis is a procedure where blood is drawn from a needle in one arm. The blood will pass through a machine that separates out the white blood cells. The remaining blood will be given back through a second needle in the other arm.

The study drugs or placebo (normal saline) will be administered 3 times at 20-week intervals. The drugs will be given through a tube attached to a needle inserted into a vein in the arm. This will take 1 hour. Some participants will receive only a saline solution. They will not know if they are getting the drugs or the placebo.

Participants will undergo leukapheresis up to 4 more times during the study.

Participants will have follow-up visits every 10 weeks until the study ends.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Study Description:

This is randomized placebo-controlled study of the safety and virologic activity of the 3BNC117-LS plus 10-1074-LS broadly neutralizing antibody (bNAb) combination during standard antiretroviral therapy (ART).

Participants will be enrolled sequentially and randomized to receive 3BNC117-LS plus 10-1074-LS or placebo (sterile saline) at a 1:1 ratio. Participants will receive two intravenous infusions of 3BNC117-LS (dosed at 30 mg/kg) and 10-1074-LS (dosed at 10 mg/kg) or placebo at weeks 0 and 20. Participants will remain on ART during the study.

Objectives:

Primary Objectives:

-To evaluate the safety and tolerability of repeated doses of 3BNC117-LS and 10-1074-LS in adults living with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) during suppressive ART.

Secondary Objectives:

* To evaluate the impact of 3BNC117-LS and 10-1074-LS on intact human immunodeficiency type 1 (HIV-1) proviruses over time in adults living with HIV during suppressive ART.
* To determine the effects of repeated doses of 3BNC117-LS and 10- 1074-LS during suppressive ART on HIV-1 specific cellular immune responses by enzyme-linked immunosorbent spot (ELISpot).
* To describe the pharmacokinetic parameters of the repeated doses of 3BNC117-LS and 10-1074-LS in adults living with HIV during suppressive ART.

Exploratory Objectives:
