The Safety and Effectiveness of Human Monoclonal Antibody, F105, in the Treatment of HIV
Completed · Phase 1
Conditions studied: HIV Infections
In brief
To determine the safety and pharmacokinetics of F105 human monoclonal antibody both following a single dose and during intermittent administration in HIV-infected patients. To determine specific dose concentrations sufficient to achieve efficacy and avoid toxicity. To determine the effect of F105 on virologic, immunologic, and serologic parameters. Early in the course of HIV infection, the primary humoral immune response appears to be highly strain specific and to be directed at a hypervariable portion of the viral gp120. The F105 human monoclonal antibody reacts with the CD4 binding region of gp120 and has been shown to neutralize the IIIB, SF2, and MN strains of HIV at concentrations readily achievable in humans.
