AAV9

Characterization of expression elements for an AAV delivered antibody in nonhuman primates when co-delivered with PD-L1

Successful AAV-expressed antibody therapy for HIV-1 requires broadly neutralizing antibody (bNAbs) concentrations and reduced immune responses to sustain viral suppression without ART. We have previously demonstrated that co-delivery of AAV-expressed PD-L1 reduces immune responses against HIV-1 bNAbs in rhesus macaques. Here we systematically evaluated six AAV9 transgene cassettes encoding 10-1074 with different promoter/intron combinations (CMV, CMV/R, CBA, CASI, CB7, EF1a) across in vitro...
