NCT00402142

Brief Summary

  1. 1.To study the efficacy of a therapeutic HIV vaccine consisting of autologous myeloid dendritic cells pulsed ex vivo with high doses of inactivated autologous HIV-1, in HIV-1 infected patients in a very early stages of the disease (CD4 \> 450 x 10 6 /L).
  2. 2.To analyze the HIV-1 humoral and cellular immune responses induced by this immune-based therapy.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Comparison of steady state viremia (so-called viral set point) after 6-12 months after vaccination with viremia before HAART.

    6 and 12 months

Secondary Outcomes (6)

  • Proportion with evidence of HIV-specific CTL comparing end of immune-based therapy, and end of trial (week 48) with start of immune-based therapy.

    6 and 12 months

  • Proportion with evidence of HIV-specific T-cell proliferative response comparing end of immune-based therapy, and end of trial (week 48) with start of immune-based therapy.

    6 and 12 months

  • Proportion with evidence of HIV-specific neutralizing activity of serum comparing end of immune-based therapy, and end of trial (week 48) with start of immune-based therapy.

    6 and 12 months

  • HIV-1 specific CTL responses in lymphoid tissue

    0 and 6 months

  • DC Migration

    0 and 2 weeks

  • +1 more secondary outcomes
