Brief Summary: To study the safety toxicology and activity of Peptide T D-Ala-1-peptide-T-amide in humans and to find out more about the ability of peptide T to prevent halt andor reverse AIDS-associated immunologic disturbances

Recent information suggests that the central nervous system CNS is often impaired in HIV-infected individuals The dysfunction of the CNS may be either a direct or an indirect result of HIV infection One method to prevent HIV infection is to block entry of the virus into the cells of the body Peptide T shows laboratory evidence of blocking the entrance of HIV into cells that are susceptible to HIV infection Studies that have been done indicate that peptide T is nontoxic in the doses that are used in this study

AIDS patients with minimal group 1 or moderate group 2 cognitive dysfunction mental impairment receive an increasing schedule of three dosage levels of peptide T All patients receive an intravenous IV dose of peptide T for 10 days followed by the intermediate dose and then the highest dose each intravenously for 10 days Following successful completion of 3 IV doses four patients participate in an intranasal pharmacokinetic blood level study dosage trial of 3 doses different from IV of peptide T once for each of 3 successive days Follow-up continues for up to 1 year
