Bacterial Diarrhea—About 3 million cases of Clostridium I N F E C T I O N S diffi cile-associated diarrhea (CDAD) occur each year in the United States.

PROGRESS AGAINST HIV/AIDS: THE EVOLUTION OF VALUE FOR PATIENTS Over the past 20 years, research advances in HIV/AIDS have transformed the treatment standard for many patients. HIV/AIDS was once an acute, fatal illness and is now a manageable, chronic disease for those who have access to medications. In the United States alone, death rates have fallen more than 80 percent since 1995 as a result of the development and use of multiple drugs used in innovative combinations, known as highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART).

Progress against HIV/AIDS didn’t happened through one single breakthrough, but through a series of stages, marked by both the introduction of new treatment options and constant learning about their optimal use and clinical value. FDA approval, which is based on rigorous clinical trials in controlled settings, marks the starting point for the continuing evolution in our understanding of a treatment’s full value for patients. As is the case for HIV/AIDS, the full value of new treatments is often not fully known at the time of FDA approval, but is realized over time as new treatments build on one another and real world knowledge is accumulated.

The ongoing introduction of new HIV/AIDS therapies, and continuous research into their optimal use in patient care, has revealed additional value for treatments beyond what was known at the time they were introduced. These include: • Use in combination with other therapeutics • Use earlier in treatment line or disease state • Use in treatment of different diseases, such as cancer
