Another huge medical achievement from our very own @UHN 🇨🇦🔥 A Toronto man lived with HIV for 27 years. Then he got leukemia and that diagnosis may have just cured him of both. His doctors found a bone marrow donor carrying CCR5-Δ32, a rare mutation in ~1% of people of European descent. HIV hijacks immune cells through the CCR5 receptor. If you don't have it, the virus has no door. The transplant replaced his entire immune system with one HIV can't infect. He stopped antiretroviral therapy in July 2025. As of today, HIV is undetectable by the most sensitive assays available. No viral reservoir. No immune response to HIV. Nine months clean. He would be the 11th person in history to possibly be cured of HIV. HIV cure is possible. We just proved it again at @UHN Proud of the team at @UHN and @UofT ! Source: uhn.ca/corporate/News…
