Brief Summary

Study is a dose escalation study. Fifteen patients will be enrolled in 2 treatment cohorts. Five participants (cohort A) will be treated with 200IU Multikine daily, 5 days/week for 2 weeks, off 2 weeks, then again 5 days/week for 2 weeks. If no serious adverse events are noted in cohort A patients, ten participants will be treated in cohort B. Cohort B participants will be treated the same as cohort A participants except that dose will be increased to 400IU Multikine per day.

Detailed Description

Study is a dose escalation study to determine the safety of Leukocyte Interleukin, Injection in treating men and women with perianal warts who are HIV/HPV co-infected. Fifteen patients will be enrolled in 2 treatment cohorts. Five participants (cohort A) will be treated with 200IU Multikine daily, 5 days/week for 2 weeks, off 2 weeks, then treated again 5 days/week for 2 weeks. If no serious adverse events are noted in cohort A patients, ten (10) participants will be treated in cohort B. Cohort B participants will be treated in the same manner as cohort A participants except that the dose will be increased to 400IU Multikine per day.

6. History of organ transplantation or requiring chronic administration of immune suppressive drugs in the last 6 months

7. For women, neither pregnant nor lactating

8. In the opinion of the Primary Investigator, the subject may not be able to tolerate the study treatment regimen

9. Subjects who are currently using or have recently within past 3 months) been treated with immunomodulators (e.g., Interferon-α)
