Description

HIV-1 C4-V3 polyvalent peptide vaccine contains amino acid sequences for selected epitopes from four of the most common HIV isolates in the United States and Europe, predicted to represent about 50-90 percent of the HIV isolates in the United States. It includes epitopes that generate potentially salutary immune responses and deletes epitopes that generate immune responses which might contribute to further immunopathogenesis. Patients are randomized to receive low-dose or high-dose HIV-1 C4-V3 polyvalent peptide vaccine in incomplete Freund's adjuvant (IFA), or IFA alone as control. Inject...
