rescue therapy Therapy given when the standard treatment for a disease or condition is no longer effective and when treatment options are limited. HIV salvage therapy is designed for people with treatment failure on more than one HIV treatment regimen and with extensive HIV drug resistance.
reservoir Resting CD4 cells (or other cells) that are infected with HIV but not actively producing HIV. Latent HIV reservoirs are established during the earliest stage of HIV infection. Although antiretroviral therapy (ART) can reduce the level of HIV in the blood to an undetectable level, latent reservoirs of HIV continue to survive. When a latently infected cell is reactivated, the cell begins to produce HIV again. For this reason, ART cannot cure HIV infection.
