Brief Summary: To define the safety and efficacy of sibling-supplied HIV antigen-pulsed dendritic cells in increasing the immune response in HIV-infected patients

Dendritic cells are a type of white blood cell used by the body to fight infection They are instrumental in presenting antigens such as HIV antigens to the bodys immune system Since dendritic cells are not functioning maximally in HIV-infected patients infusion of dendritic cells from an HIV-negative sibling may enable the affected siblings immune system to recognize foreign particles more readily and increase immune response against the virus
Detailed Description: Dendritic cells are a type of white blood cell used by the body to fight infection They are instrumental in presenting antigens such as HIV antigens to the bodys immune system Since dendritic cells are not functioning maximally in HIV-infected patients infusion of dendritic cells from an HIV-negative sibling may enable the affected siblings immune system to recognize foreign particles more readily and increase immune response against the virus

Dendritic cells from an HIV-negative sibling are obtained and treated with various viral proteins HIV vaccines or immunomodulators The treated dendritic cells are infused into the HIV-infected patient monthly for 6 months Siblings must be able to donate on multiple occasions and patients are followed every 2-4 weeks during the study Patients are screened over 3 months prior to study entry
