NCT00333892

Brief Summary

To further investigate differences in the immunologic function of various lymphocyte subsets in HIV-infected patients who are treated early in their infection and during the chronic phase of the infection. Studies will also be done to further delineate the various antigen-specific and innate immune responses including characterization of soluble factors associated with primary HIV infection.

Study Population

HIV-infected adults who have a positive ELISA and a confirmatory western blot HIV test.

You may qualify if:

  • Adult HIV-1 infected patient
  • For primary infected patients anyone with an exposure to a known source of HIV infected material or individual, with symptoms and signs if present consistent with primary HIV infection, a negative ELISA, indeterminate Western blot for HIV and a positive HIV plasma RNA levels \> 10,000 copies/mL by either RT-PCR or bDNA
  • Chronic HIV-infected patients should have a positive ELISA and a confirmatory western blot and willingness to give informed consent for the storage of blood.
  • Willingness to be able to make follow-up visits for apheresis at 6 and 12 months for those who undergo antiretroviral therapy

You may not qualify if:

  • Pregnant women
