- Healthy HIV-seropositive adults (generalized lymphadenopathy, seborrheic dermatitis acceptable).
- Negative for HIV plasma culture.
- Available for 6 months follow-up (patients in Pilot study) or 10 months follow-up (patients in Parts A and B).
Prior Medication: Required:
- Part B: Zidovudine (AZT), tolerating a dose of 500 - 600 mg/day for at least 4 months prior to entry.
Exclusion Criteria
Co-existing Condition:
Patients with the following conditions or symptoms are excluded:
- Evidence of psychological disorder during the past year that would impair adherence to the protocol.
- Evidence of an AIDS defining opportunistic infection.
Prior Medication:
Excluded:
- Any potential immunomodulating agents (e.g., isoprinosine, imuthiol, lithium) within 90 days of screening.
- Immunosuppressive medications during the past 3 months.
- Part A: Use of zidovudine (AZT) for more than 30 days in the preceding 6 months, or any AZT within the last 30 days.
- Parts A and B: Any non-AZT antiretroviral drug.
- Any other investigational agent within the past 30 days.
- Immunoglobulins within the past 60 days.
Patients may not have the following prior conditions:
- Evidence of psychological disorder during the past year that would impair adherence to the protocol.
- History of an AIDS-defining opportunistic infection.
Use of illicit drugs or significant amounts of alcohol that, in the opinion of the principal investigator, would interfere with compliance with the study.
