Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to analyze BK viral infection in salivary gland diseases; specifically, to determine a definitive relationship between BK Virus and HIV associated salivary gland disease (HIVSGD). Participants are adults HIV+SGD+ who will be randomized 1:1 to receive BK Virus antiviral (ciprofloxacin) or placebo for 28 days. Salivary function/protein secretion will be correlated with BK polyomavirus titers. It is expected that patients with HIV+SGD+ will have elevated oral BK polyomavirus viral loads and will benefit from Ciprofloxacin.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
BK Viral Status in Saliva at Week 4
Oral fluids will be assessed for evidence of BK Virus replication to determine whether Cipro administration inhibits BK Virus replication in participants with HIVSGD. Oral fluids will be assessed by real-time PCR to determine BK Virus status as positive or negative.
Week 4
BK Viral Status in Saliva at Week 12
Oral fluids will be assessed for evidence of BK Virus replication to determine whether Cipro administration inhibits BK Virus replication in participants with HIVSGD. Oral fluids will be assessed by real-time PCR to determine BK Virus status as positive or negative.
