...factored out participants who were discovered to have been HIV-positive before the trial began. At a press conference at the Paris meeting, Dr. Nelson L. Michael, a virologist with the U.S. Military HIV Research Program, which helped run the $105 million trial, defended that statistical analysis, the "modified intent-to-treat, as the gold standard...

Iran has long suspected that groups such as Jundullah are supported as part of the covert campaign, and in 2007, ABC News alleged that Jundullah had secretly received advice and encouragement from U.S. intelligence officials...
