Immunized-intermediate burdena versus control	1.75 × 106	4.66 × 107	<0.01	1.23 × 106	3.48 × 106	<0.01

^aImmunized non-Mamu-A∗01 macaques with low, intermediate, or high viral burdens were grouped according to their set point viremia.

^bGeometric mean viral burdens are reported as SIV RNA copies/ml of plasma.
