Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

To investigate the safety and tolerance of an increasing number of infusions per week of alvircept sudotox ( sCD4-PE40; soluble CD4-Pseudomonas exotoxin ) at a fixed dose when administered to HIV-1-infected individuals. To investigate the effect of sCD4-PE40 on the following parameters: T lymphocyte subsets, plasma HIV RNA and cellular HIV proviral DNA in PBMC and CD4 cells, p24 levels, serum beta-2 microglobulin, and neopterin levels.
