Benjamin Carr, Ph.D. 👨🏻💻🧬Norway Man Cured of #HIV With Brother’s #StemCells
The Oslo patient is the first person to be cured by a family member's #bonemarrow transplant.
The 63-year-old man appears to be cured of HIV after receiving a stem cell transplant from his brother, who turned out to have a rare #mutation that makes immune cells resistant to HIV. "Four years after the transplant, and two years after the man stopped antiretroviral therapy, he still appears to be free of the infection"
