A functional Human immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) cure has been proposed as an alternative to antiretroviral treatment for life, and therapeutic vaccines represent one of the most promising approaches. The goal of therapeutic vaccination is to augment virus-specific immune responses that have an impact on HIV viral load dynamics. To date, the agreed feature to evaluate the effects of these therapeutic interventions is analytical antiretroviral treatment interruption (ATI), at least until we find a reliable biomarker that can predict viral control. Different host, immunologic, and virologic markers have been proposed as predictors of viral control during ATI after therapeutic interventions. This review describes the relevance of ATI and the different surrogate markers of virological control assessed in HIV therapeutic vaccine clinical trials.

Persistent infection with high-risk Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) has been identified as the causal factor of cervical cancer, with relative risk up to 300-400 folds. This very close relationship leads to the preventive strategy of vaccination against HPV infections and HPV-related lesions. The article describes molecular and immunologic characteristics of HPV, currently available HPV vaccines and its protective effects; the relationship between HPV vaccination and cervical cancer screening, and an introduction to therapeutic HPV vaccine trials.
