because it has both Pharma flavors of the day: HIV Drug May Prevent Cervical Cancer The antiviral drug lopinavir -- commonly used to treat HIV -- could be used to prevent cervical cancer, say researchers at the University of Manchester in the U.K. They found that the oral drug also attacks the virus (HPV) that causes cervical cancer. They suggest that a pessary or cream form of lopinavir that's applied to the cervix could help women infected with HPV avoid surgery to remove early cervical cancer, BBC News reported. Vaccines for cervical cancer are already being developed, but these would only protect people who haven't yet been infected by HPV, the researchers said. In a laboratory study, the team found that small doses of liquid lopinavir selectively

killed HPV-infected cervical cancer cells. Their findings appear in the journal Antiviral Therapy. The researchers plan to conduct human clinical trials of a lopinavir cream or pessary treatment, according to BBC News. Carolyn
