MRKAd5 HIV-1 gag vaccine 1x10^9 vp/dose

Participants administered MRKAd5 HIV-1 gag vaccine 1x10\^9 viral particles (vp)/dose (V520), on Day 1, Week 4, and Week 26.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

MRKAd5 HIV-1 gag vaccine (V520)

Intervention Type BIOLOGICAL

3-dose prime boosting regimen of 1.0-mL intramuscular injections of 1x10\^9 viral particles/dose of MRKAd5 HIV-1 gag vaccine (V520) at Day 1 and Weeks 4 and 26

MRKAd5 HIV-1 gag vaccine 1x10^10 vp/dose

Participants were to be administered MRKAd5 HIV-1 gag 1x10\^10 vp/dose (V520) on Day 1, Week 4, and Week 26.

Per a letter dated 30-Aug-2005 all sites were notified that due to recruitment challenges enrollment would be halted as of 01-Oct-2005. Consequently, no participants were enrolled in the group MRKAd5 HIV-1 gag 1x10\^10 vp/dose.
