Brief Summary: To compare the safety and tolerance of oral ganciclovir at a double dose 3 timesday or a single dose 6 timesday to IV ganciclovir given for 20 weeks of maintenance therapy To compare the time to progression of cytomegalovirus CMV retinitis between two regimens of oral ganciclovir and IV ganciclovir therapy given for 20 weeks of maintenance therapy To describe the efficacy and safety of double dose versus single dose oral ganciclovir in patients who have a progression of retinitis while on the originally assigned maintenance treatment To describe the safety tolerance and time to progression of retinitis during the 52 weeks of oral ganciclovir maintenance therapy in people with AIDS To describe the safety and tolerance of oral ganciclovir maintenance therapy when given concurrently with antiretroviral treatment eg zidovudine ddI or ddC To describe survival of people with AIDS and CMV retinitis
Detailed Description: Two hundred twenty-five patients with AIDS and CMV retinitis are eligible for enrollment in Groups A B and C of the study provided that each subject has received and tolerated a therapeutic course of intravenous IV ganciclovir of at least 4 weeks duration resulting in stable retinitis An additional 100 subjects who have received and tolerated a course of IV or oral ganciclovir under any clinical trial of oral ganciclovir sponsored by Syntex Research and have stable retinitis may enter into Group D of this study and receive oral ganciclovir
