Brief Summary: This study will evaluate whether the HIV vaccine ALVAC vCP1452 given in combination with interleukin-2 IL-2 also known as aldesleukin can increase immune system function in people with HIV infection
Detailed Description: While the advent of highly active antiretroviral therapy HAART has contributed to the increasing control of HIV infection and viral replication ultimate control of HIV infection will require the development of effective HIV-specific immunity in HIV infected individuals

This trial will evaluate the use of the ALVAC vCP1452 vaccine in combination with IL-2 to increase HIV-specific immune responses in HIV infected patients ALVAC vCP1452 vaccine is a recombinant canarypox HIV vaccine that is administered as a monthly intramuscular injection The IL-2 is self administered as a daily subcutaneous injection at a low non-toxic dose 2 million units

Participants in this study are randomized to receive either ALVAC and IL-2 or placebo for the first 3 months of the study During this time participants will continue on their current antiretroviral medications and have monthly study visits Study visits will include a brief medical interview and physical exam administration of the vaccine and blood tests At the end of 3 months participants will discontinue both their study medications IL-2 and ALVAC or placebo and their antiretroviral medications This Diagnostic Treatment Interruption DTI will continue for a minimum of 3 months During the DTI participants will have weekly study visits in which viral and lymphocyte dynamics are monitored
