Description

HIV-specific cellular immune responses appear to play an important role in HIV disease progression since both T helper and cytotoxic function against HIV decrease with disease progression. Patients with CD4 counts greater than or equal to 500 cells/mm3 are randomized to receive HIV-1 MN rgp160 (Immuno-AG) or control. Patients with CD4 counts 50-499 cells/mm3 receive didanosine (ddI) and are then randomized to receive ddI plus vaccine or control. Vaccine or control is given every 4 weeks for 7 injections, then every 8 weeks for 6-12 months or until 1 year after the last patient is randomize...
