Summary:The development of a cure is among the foremost contemporary priorities in the field of HIV research. The science that underpins a potential HIV cure should be generalisable to the many millions of persons globally who enter antiretroviral treatment programs with advanced immunosuppression and/or an opportunistic infection. We provide five key suggestions for incorporation into the HIV cure research agenda to maximise the generalisability and applicability of an HIV cure once developed.
