"It is notable that all patients on the protocol had elevated CD4+ counts after treatment with Lexgenleucel-T," said Carl June, M.D., professor of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine. "Achieving a complete control of HIV recrudescence following HAART interruption for over 14 weeks is, indeed, remarkable."

Elevated CD4 counts and decreased Viral load in the patients.
I have always believed that Gene therapy and stem cells will be the way to kill hiv in us. Let's hope something better will come soon. Link:
