"Patients receiving the combination treatment achieved a mean viral
load reduction of 3.2 log10, or 99.94 percent, after 12 weeks of
treatment"

Looks like it still has to go through Phase III, but the signs look
promising since it does appear to be better that the best available

it is a double blind, there can be no guarantee that any particular
person will actually get the drug)
