Negative Serology by Immunoenzymatic Test (EIA) in HIV-infected Children Treated Early With Antiretroviral in the ANRS-Pediacam Study: Pathophysiological Mechanisms
Sponsor: ANRS, Emerging Infectious Diseases
Summary
The objective of the study is to identify the pathophysiological mechanisms responsible for the induction and maintenance of negative serologies by EIA tests in HIV-infected children treated early with HAART in the ANRS 12225-Pediacam III cohort in Cameroon The hypothesis of better control of HIV infection through interactions between immunological, viral, and genetic factors was made to build the following objectives: * Immunological aspect: lack of humoral response or immune activation * Virological aspect: Reduced HIV reservoir size * Determine the HLA phenotype in the different groups of children included and the KIR genotypes.
