A 44-year-old man being treated by some researchers in the
has so far demonstrated “remarkable” advancement under the treatment, intended
to find and decimate the infection in all aspects of the body.
According to report, the mid-aged man is the first of 50
individuals to finish a trial of the treatment, depicted as "one of the first
serious attempts at a full cure for HIV".
HIV is the infection that causes
AIDS - which leaves an individual's invulnerable framework too frail to be in
any way ready to battle off disease.
In the event that the offer to discover an irreversible cure
is fruitful, it may not just spare the NHS a huge amount of pounds but also
bring sigh of relieve to about 37 million individuals living with HIV
universally.
Researchers have said that the HIV and AIDS pandemic is
worst in Sub-Sahara Africa, with South Africa topping the chart.
The trailblazing examination is undertaken by a joint effort
between five of the UK's top universities
, sorted out by the NHS.
The managing director of the National National Institute for
Health Research Office for Clinical Research Infrastructure, Mark Samuels, in a chat with the Sunday Times
said that: "This is one of the first serious attempts at a full cure for
HIV.
"We are exploring the real possibility of curing HIV.
"This is a huge challenge and it's still early days but
the progress has been remarkable."
It was revealed to the dailies by the trial patient that
blood test conducted lately demonstrated no discernible HIV infection was
available, despite the fact that it was too soon to affirm that the treatment
had worked. It is conceivable traditional medications could have stifled the
infection.
The current treatment utilizing antiretroviral treatments (ART)
is not a cure, as it neglects to free patients of HIV, yet can control the
infection empowering individuals to live longer.
The most recent exploration is trying a "kick and kill"
system to first uncover then crush the infection totally.
