- Monday, March 4, 9:50 AM Shares in GSK (GSK -0.6%), Pfizer (PFE +0.3%) and Abbott (ABT +0.2%) show little reaction to news that lamivudine and zidovudine, which they sell in a JV, helped cure a 2/12 year old infant of HIV. Other firms that develop HIV treatments, including Merck (MRK +0.4%), J&J (JNJ +0.35%) and Gilead (GILD +0.3%), also don't seem too impressed. Comment! [Healthcare]
- Monday, March 4, 5:42 AM A 2 1/2 year-old infant appears to have been cured of HIV following aggressive treatment soon after birth with the drugs lamivudine and zidovudine, which are sold by a joint venture between GlaxoSmithKline (GSK), Pfizer (PFE), ViiV Healthcare and Abbott Laboratories' (ABT) Kaletra. The news could revolutionize the way babies with HIV are treated. "It's proof of principle that we can cure HIV infection if we can replicate this case," says Johns Hopkins' Deborah Persaud, the lead author of a report on the case. 5 Comments [Healthcare, Top Stories]

Witty expects some job losses in Europe due to pressure on prices, and while he declines to provide too many details of impact on headcount of restructuring, he says the R&D and manufacturing overhaul will focus on new processes rather than staff cuts.

The drug is a treatment for a rare disorder called chronic immune thrombocytopenic purpura, and occurs in patients who have had their spleens removed. GSK received the institute's stamp of approval after agreeing to sell it to the state-run medical system at a discount. Comment! [Healthcare]
