The technique involves removing the HIV virus from cell DNA, allowing the body&#8217;s immune system to attack it.<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Ole S\u00f8gaard, a member of the research team, is so confident in the prospect of a cure that he told The Telegraph he is &#8220;almost certain&#8221; their technique will be successful in releasing the &#8220;resevoirs&#8221; of HIV found in DNA.  However, he also cautioned that getting a patient&#8217;s immune system to attack the exposed virus could be a challenge.<\/p>\n<p>For now, the clinical trial only has 15 patients.
