Brief Summary: RATIONALE HIV virus is found in the lesions of most patients with Kaposis sarcoma and may have a role in causing Kaposis sarcoma Antiviral therapy acts against the HIV virus and may be an effective treatment for Kaposis sarcoma

PURPOSE This phase II trial is studying how well antiviral therapy works in treating patients with slowly progressing HIV-related Kaposis sarcoma
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

Determine the efficacy of highly active antiretroviral therapy HAART in treating patients with HIV-related stage I-III nonaggressive epidemic Kaposis sarcoma

OUTLINE Patients receive therapy consisting of nucleoside analogues RTI and protease inhibitors PI Patients may receive either 2 RTIs or 2 RTIs plus 2 PIs Treatment continues for 12 weeks then progression is assessed

Patients with stable or regressing Kaposis sarcoma KS with a viral load of greater than 500 copies of RNAmL may continue with the therapy if the viral load has decreased by greater than 2 logs or may modify therapy if the viral load has decreased less than 2 logs Patients with progressive disease may begin chemotherapy but continue to receive the antiretroviral therapy Treatment continues for at least 48 weeks

Patients are followed every 8 weeks until week 48

PROJECTED ACCRUAL This study will accrue a total of 14-25 patients
