  Aim: Based on this hypothesis a new biological combination termed V20E immune peptides comprising HIV viral antigen and a non-specific HIV antibodies has been formulated in oral and injectable form for inhibiting or preventing the HIV infection. Introduction: A new assumption assumes that CD4+ T-cell can induce the production of a pathogenic broadly neutralizing anti-HIV antibodies to mask a proportion of corresponding HIV antigens in immune-complex form (Ag/ nAbs) antigen/neutralizing antibody for a long time preventing its attacks by CD8+ cytotoxic T-cells and anti-viral drugs.
