Online treatment for AIDS afflicted
at www.amfar.org
Philadelphia, Nov 20
A nonprofit group dedicated to AIDS research launched a
new website that promises the latest information on
approved and experimental HIV therapies to members of the
public as well as medical professionals.
The American Foundation for AIDS Research (amfAR)
HIV/AIDS Treatment Directory went online at
http://www.amfar.org/td with a searchable database of
clinical studies of experimental HIV/AIDS therapies
intended to provide alternatives to approved treatment
options.
"The clinical study search function enables doctors
as well as patients to find the most appropriate trials
of experimental drugs by anonymously entering CD4+
counts, viral loads, geographical location, or specific
condition," said Kevin Robert Frost, amfAR's
director of clinical research and information.
The print version of the amfAR HIV/AIDS Treatment
Directory has been a leading source of treatment
information since it first appeared in 1985.
