Table 1. Initial conditions and baseline parameters, with parameter ranges given in parentheses.
Parameter | Meaning | Value | Source |
---|---|---|---|
c | viral clearance rate | 23 day−1 (23 day−1–100 day−1) | lower: [35] upper: [36] |
δ | productively infected cell death rate | 1 day−1 | [37] |
p | viral production rate | 50000 per day (1000–50 000 per day) | lower: [38], upper: [39] |
ε | drug efficacy | 0.99 (0.9–0.999) | See text |
T | target cell density (assumed constant) | 800 cells per μL | |
Net latent reservoir half-life | 44 months | [10] | |
η 1 | Latent reservoir decay rate in the absence of replenishment by de novo infection |
5.17 × 10−4 day−1; half-life is ln(2)/η 1 = 44.0 mos |
