- Proportion of participants with PGT121 mAb reactogenicity, related AEs and SAEs [ Time Frame: 6 Months post infusion ]
The investigators will measure the following endpoints to evaluate the safety and tolerability of PGT121 mAb in HIV-uninfected and HIV-infected adults:
- Proportion of participants with moderate or greater reactogenicity (e.g., solicited adverse events) for 3 days following IV infusion of PGT121 mAb.
- Proportion of participants with moderate or greater and/or PGT121 mAb-related unsolicited adverse events (AEs), including safety laboratory (biochemical, hematological) parameters, following IV infusion of PGT121 mAb for the first 56 days post administration of Investigational Product.
- Proportion of participants with PGT121 mAb-related serious adverse events (SAEs) throughout the study period.
- Pharmacokinetics: elimination half-life (t1/2) [ Time Frame: 6 Months post infusion ]Pharmacokinetics: elimination half-life (t1/2)
- Pharmacokinetics: Clearance (CL/F) [ Time Frame: 6 Months post infusion ]Pharmacokinetics: Clearance (CL/F)
