简要总结

PRIMARY: To assess the effect of bovine anti-Cryptosporidium immunoglobulin (BACI) on the volume of diarrhea due to Cryptosporidium parvum in AIDS patients who have protracted Cryptosporidium enteritis.

SECONDARY: To assess changes in stool consistency and frequency, body weight, and safety in this patient population.

详细描述

Forty patients are randomized to receive either BACI or placebo (bovine colostrum from non-immunized cattle) for 1 week. The double-blind portion of the study will be followed by an open-label phase in which all 40 patients receive BACI for 1 week.
