MANILA, Philippines – Is the world one step closer to a cure for HIV? British scientists believe so, after a report Sunday, October 2, of a man reportedly testing negative after undergoing a trial treatment in the United Kingdom.

Initial tests showed that a 44-year-old British patient had "undetectable" levels of the virus after undergoing a trial treatment that targets the virus in the entire body, UK newspaper The Sunday Times reported.

The new treatment, The Sunday Times reports, differs from the current anti-retroviral therapies (ART) treatment because it does a "kick and kill" strategy.
