Abstract

An effective HIV type 1 (HIV-1) vaccine will likely require elicitation of broadly reactive cell-mediated immune (CMI) responses against divergent HIV-1 clades. We compared anti-HIV-1 T-cell immune responses among 363 unvaccinated adults infected with diverse HIV-1 clades. Response rates to clade B Gag and/or clade B Nef in Botswana (95%) and Cameroon (98%) were similar when compared with those in countries previously studied, including Brazil (92%), Thailand (96%), South Africa (96%), Malawi (100%), and the United States (100%). Substantial cross-clade cell-mediated immune responses in Botswana and Cameroon confirm previous findings in a larger, more genetically diverse collection of HIV-1 samples.
