Umbrella Study for HIV Infected Adults Enrolled in NIAID-Funded Interleukin-2 Studies
Completed
Conditions studied: HIV Infections
In brief
Interleukin-2 (IL-2) is a protein found naturally in the blood that helps boost the immune system. The purpose of this study is to provide long-term treatment and monitoring of HIV infected people enrolled in NIAID-funded studies investigating the use of laboratory-made IL-2 for the treatment of HIV infection.

You may qualify if…
- HIV-1 infected
- Current participation and presently in good standing in a NIAID/CCMD clinical trial involving the use of IL-2 for the treatment of HIV-1 infection. Additional HIV-1 infected people who are IL-2 naive may be selected by the investigator for this study.
- Willing to take antiretrovirals within a 10-day period surrounding each IL-2 cycle. Individual protocols may be modified as needed by the investigator to permit IL-2 therapy in the absence of antiretrovirals.
- Willing to accept additional IL-2 therapy when needed
- Willing to use acceptable forms of contraception during a minimum 10-day period surrounding each IL-2 injection
You may not qualify if…
- History of noncompliance with prior NIAID/CCMD protocols
- Any organic central nervous system (CNS) abnormality requiring treatment with antiseizure medication
- Unless previously exempted for this requirement, current or history of Crohn's disease, psoriasis, or other autoimmune or inflammatory disease with potentially life-threatening complications
- Significant heart, lung, kidney, rheumatologic, gastrointestinal, or CNS disease that may pose an unacceptable risk to the participant during IL-2 therapy
- Psychiatric illness that, in the opinion of the investigator, may interfere with the study
- Current or recent substance abuse that, in the opinion of the investigator, may interfere with the study
- Refuse to follow Clinical Center policy on partner notification
- History of optic neuritis
- Refuse to allow extra blood specimens to be stored for potential use in future studies of HIV-1 infection or the immune system
