Brief Summary: To evaluate the effectiveness safety and tolerance of two doses of didanosine ddI in the treatment of children with symptomatic HIV disease who have had to discontinue zidovudine AZT because of intolerance andor who have experienced progressive disease while on AZT

The progression of immunodeficiency due to HIV infection can be delayed by using AZT The benefits of AZT in adults with AIDS and severe AIDS-related complex ARC appear to last for approximately 12 to 18 months at which time most patients have progressive deterioration Recently published literature has described a reduced sensitivity of HIV isolated from patients after prolonged AZT treatment Although the clinical significance of this is unclear it makes the development of new antiretroviral drugs important

Children who show AZT intolerance andor progressive disease after 6 months of AZT therapy receive oral ddI at 1 of 2 doses for a minimum of 48 weeks with a 48-week extension Patients are seen for clinical and laboratory evaluations at scheduled times during the study Per 51292 amendment new patients will not be enrolled in the pharmacokinetics studies Per 103194 amendment Patients are eligible to receive blinded study drug for an additional 8-16 weeks after the final on-study visit but no later than 21595
