Ideally, doctors would have used CCR5-resistant stem cells, but none were available. Instead, the donor cells had one normal and one mutated copy of the CCR5 gene. After chemotherapy eliminated most of his immune cells, the donor stem cells repopulated his immune system. At first, he continued taking standard antiretroviral therapy. Three years later, confident that the transplant had successfully established a healthy immune system, he decided to stop ART. Remarkably, extensive blood tests revealed no trace of HIV. Seven years later, he remains virus-free. This makes him the second person cured of HIV using non-resistant stem cells and the seventh person overall to achieve a functional cure. How Could This Cure Work Without Resistant Cells? The case challenges the long-held belief that CCR5-res...
