Brief Summary: At the end of 2004 there were more than 40 million people infected Worldwide with HIV with an estimated 16000 new infections every day UNAIDS 2004 The HIV epidemic threatens whole societies particularly in Africa and Asia and rates of infections in the Western Countries have also increased over the last few years However despite more than 15 years of research an effective vaccine against HIV and acquired immunodeficiency syndrome AIDS has still not been developed

There is considerable evidence that cellular immune responses can effectively control HIV-1 replication during acute and chronic infections thereby possibly protecting individuals from infection and preventing the spread of HIV To be truly effective in the general population a vaccine must induce responses specific to immunologically conserved regions The epitope-based vaccine MVA-mBN32 represent a very logical approach to this problem because its potential to elicit a polyfunctional immune response and to focus these responses to conserved epitopes

In this study the safety tolerability and immunogenicity of a recombinant MVA-BN expressing CTL and HTL epitopes of HIV-1 MVA-mBN32 vs the vector control MVA-BN in 30 HIV-infected subjects will be examined This will include a full analysis of CD4 T helper cells and CD8 CTL responses to these epitopes to establish the potential of such a homologous prime-boost vaccine approach to induce a broad cell-mediated response to different HIV antigens
