no, however there is treatments that will slow the progression down, and help with the symptoms, and there are people trying to come up with a cure everyday. Yes but there is a hope if a human does not have the receptor for HIV virus he will have HIV virus but he will never become AIDS patient.

A different answer:First, in asking such a question, it's critical that we get our terms right. HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus) is a retrovirus that attacks the subject's immune system, which makes them susceptible to a wide variety of other pathologies that normally would be unlikely attackers. This range of attackers is referred to as a Syndrome. AIDS is Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome. It's not really a disease in and of itself; it's a group of things that happen to the patient as a result of an HIV infection. Curing the syndrome may not be problematical once HIV is suppressed.

And the news is strangely good. On December 10, 2010, Maggie Fox of Reuters News Agency reported, "German Doctors declare 'cure' in HIV Patient"

The subject was diagnosed with HIV-1 and leukemia received a bone marrow transplant from a another patient who presented a mutation known to cause an immunity to HIV-1. 4 years later, the patient tests free of HIV.

This treatment is not the end of the road for HIV researchers. Transplants of this nature are dangerous cures, and only typically offered to end-stage leukemia patients, do to the risks involved. A simpler, less dangerous and more readily available cure is still desirable and still not discovered.

This work, however, is technically a cure, and appears to be repeatable.
