Brief Summary

AMENDED 8/94: To expand the safety and immunogenicity profile of MN rgp160 vaccine (Immuno-AG) by administering a higher dose (800 mcg) at 0, 1, 6, and 12 months and 0, 2, 8 and 14 months (these two schedules were compared in VEU 013A using a dose of 200 mcg). To obtain plasma following the fourth immunization. To evaluate skin test reactivity. ORIGINAL (replaced): To determine in healthy volunteers the safety and immunogenicity of two immunizations of MN rgp160 vaccine (Immuno-AG) in combination with a live recombinant vaccinia virus LAV HIV-1 gp160 vaccine (HIVAC-1e) versus DryVax (the standard smallpox vaccine that was used for many years) control in combination with placebo. ORIGINAL (replaced): A gp160 vaccine derived from the MN strain, the most prevalent strain of HIV-1 in the United States, has been developed. A previous study showed that a combination vaccine strategy, consisting of priming with HIVAC-1e followed by boosting with a gp160 subunit vaccine, resulted in humoral and cellular immune responses of greater and longer duration than either vaccine alone. Thus, a live vector/subunit boost approach using the MN rgp160 vaccine merits investigation.
