简要总结
In order to better understand the source(s) and the mechanism(s) of HIV persistence and to potentially lead to further suppression of HIV from viral reservoirs, we propose to examine the effect of co-administration of enfuvirtide, an entry inhibitor of HIV, on diminution of the size of the viral reservoir in infected individuals who are receiving effective antiviral therapy for extended periods of time (> 5 years).

结局指标
主要结局
The change of proviral HIV-1 DNA in both purified resting and activated CD4 T cells from baseline to month 6.
时间窗: 6 months
The change of proviral HIV-1 DNA in both purified resting and activated CD4 T cells from baseline to month 6.
次要结局
- To determine the change of proviral HIV-1 DNA from baseline to month 3(3 months)
- To determine the change of proviral HIV-1 DNA from months 6 to 9 after the enfurvitide has been stopped for 3 months in the treatment arm(9 months)
- To quantify plasma HIV (limit of detection 2 copies/ml of plasma)(9 months)
- To quantify cell associated HIV RNA (unspliced and multiply spliced) in resting and activated CD4+ T cells(9 months)
- To determine the decay characteristics of HIV in resting CD4+ T cells by quantitative co-culture assays(9 months)
- To determine the half-life of HIV in resting CD4+ T cells(9months)
- To carry out phylogenetic analysis of HIV in the plasma, resting, and activated CD4+ T cell compartments(9 months)
- To quantify the amount of HIV in gastrointestinal-associated lymphoid tissue (GALT) by quantitative co-culture assays (as part of a sub-study - see GALT sub-study)(9 months)
