The noteworthy candidate, EBT-101, is designed to eliminate HIV proviral DNA using CRISPR-Cas9 along with two guide RNAs (gRNAs). These dual gRNAs target three specific sites within the HIV genome, facilitating the removal of substantial portions of the viral DNA and minimizing the potential for viral escape.
