Abstract
To determine whether the addition of an inactivated-gp120-depleted HIV-1 Immunogen to antiretrovirals (ARTs) conferred a beneficial effect on delaying time to virologic failure relative to that obtained by ARTs alone, a phase II clinical trial was performed in 243 asymptomatic, ART naïve, HIV-1 seropositive adults. The Cox model showed that HIV-1 Immunogen treatment was associated with a 34% decrease in the risk of virologic failure (P = 0.056). When the analysis incorporated baseline HIV-RNA stratification the risk of virologic failure in the HIV-1 Immunogen Arm was significantly reduced a 37% compared to the IFA placebo Arm (P = 0.034). The data suggest that therapeutic immunization plus ARTs could influence virologic control.Entities:
