A British man could become the first person in the world to be cured of HIV using a new therapy designed by a team of scientists from five UK universities.The 44-year-old is one of 50 people currently trialling a treatment which targets the disease even in its dormant state.Scientists told The Sunday Times that presently the virus is completely undetectable in the man's blood and if it remains that way it will be the first complete cure.

NHS doctors treating the 44-year-old man were left stunned and are now hopeful of a breakthrough in what is described as "one of the first serious attempts at a full cure for HIV".The patient, who remains anonymous, is the first of 50 people to complete a trial using a two-stage attack on the deadly disease.The research, being carried out by five top British universities with NHS support, combines antiretroviral drugs with a drug that reactivates dormant HIV and a vaccine that induces the immune system to destroy the infected cells.

LONDON: Scientists in Britain working on a trial cure for the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) have reported "remarkable" progress, after early tests on a patient with HIV failed to detect the virus in his blood.The 44-year-old man is the first of 50 participants to complete a trial of the treatment, local media reported on Sunday (Oct 2).Carried out by doctors and scientists from five leading British universities, the trial is testing a "kick and kill" technique designed to track down and destroy HIV cells in the entire body.
