Brief Summary: To demonstrate the safety and tolerability of subcutaneously administered interleukin-2 IL-2 plus antiretrovirals in patients with HIV infection and CD4 counts of 350 cellsmm3 or more To demonstrate the immunological efficacy of subcutaneous IL-2 therapy plus antiretroviral therapy relative to antiretroviral therapy alone

IL-2 given through injection under the skin in combination with anti-HIV therapy can increase CD4 cell counts This study examines 3 doses of IL-2 in order to determine the safest and most effective dose to use
Detailed Description: Interleukin-2 administered subcutaneously in combination with antiretrovirals results in increases in CD4 cell count that might impact upon HIV disease progression A Phase III trial involving large numbers of HIV-positive patients is the next step in the development process To develop appropriate clinical experience with the combination this Phase II trial will allow administration of IL-2 plus antiretroviral therapy to a small number of patients in sites being considered for the Phase III trial

Patients are randomized to control therapy with antiretrovirals alone 36 patients or antiretrovirals plus IL-2 given subcutaneously every 12 hours for 5 days every 8 weeks Three doses of IL-2 are studied with 12 patients evaluated at each dose

If at least 9 of the first 12 patients complete the 5-day dosing period without dose-limiting toxicities the next 12 patients randomized are treated with the next higher dose if this dose is tolerated the last 12 patients randomized receive the highest study dose Patients enrolled at the first two doses of IL-2 who complete three courses have their dose escalated to a maximum of the highest dose
