NCT00007488

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to gain information on how the type and amount of HIV present in certain places in the body and in the blood are affected when potent (powerful) anti-HIV drugs are given. Researchers know that the type and amount of HIV may differ in certain places in the body (called compartments) but are not sure how anti-HIV treatment affects these differences. This study gathers information to help understand how the virus grows and changes between blood and nonblood compartments in patients receiving anti-HIV treatment.
