A Canadian, Dr. Kang at The University of Western Ontario appears to share this view. In fact, he has already submitted the Investigational New Drug Application to the FDA for his vaccine candidate (US Patent # 7,067,134, issued June 27, 2006) and he's awaiting approval to start Phase I Clinical trials. I believe he will first be looking at it as a therapeutic vaccine since the trial process is less complicated and time consuming for a therapeutic vaccine versus a preventative vaccine.
Hopefully, through the efforts of Dr. Sarkar of India and/or Dr. Kang of Canada, we'll figure out a way to fully eradicate HIV from the body.
