HL Deb 14 October 1997 vol 582 cc149-50WA
Earl Baldwin of Bewdley

asked Her Majesty's Government:

How many Phase III clinical trials of the new protease inhibitor combination drug therapy for HIV/AIDS that have been fully completed have shown statistically significant survival benefit: and, if there are any, where and when were the findings published.

Baroness Jay of Paddington

Clinical trials involving protease inhibitors as part of combination drug therapy for HIV/AIDS are either on-going or have only recently been carried out. Therefore full results of such trials have not yet been published.
