Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| 1. Sequence of the viral genome that is present in the HIV-1 donor as close as possible to the time of HIV-1 transmission; 2. Virus diversity in the donor-recipient pairs half a year after HIV-1 transmission; 3. HLA type of donor-recipient pairs, availability of replication competent (pseudo)viruses from donor and recipient. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The relation between viral sequence dynamics and: 1. The HLA type of donor and recipient; 2. The autologous neutralization profile; 3. Host CTL responses; 4. Viral fitness. | — |
