Eight patients with AIDS and eight patients with ARC are given ddC at the lowest level for 12 weeks. Patients who respond with a rise in their number of T4 cells or with a fall in HIV antigen in their serum (the fluid portion of the blood) are continued at that dose for an additional 12 weeks. Patients who do not respond at a given dose level (no rise in T4 or fall in serum HIV antigen) stop treatment at 12 weeks. All patients are followed off therapy for 4 weeks. As each dose level is found to be well tolerated for 10 weeks in five of the eight patients in each group, additional patients will be entered at higher dose levels until eight AIDS and eight ARC patients are receiving the drug at a given level.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': "Inclusion Criteria\n\nConcurrent Medication:\n\nAllowed:\n\n* Aspirin, acetaminophen, and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agents.\n* Acute therapy (7 days) with oral acyclovir.\n* Acute therapy with ketoconazole.\n\nExclusion Criteria\n\nCo-existing Condition:\n\nPatients with the following are excluded:\n\n* Negative antigen test within 2 weeks of starting therapy.\n* Significant malabsorption (\\> 10 percent weight loss within past 3 months with serum carotene \\< 75 IU/ml or vitamin A \\< 75 IU/ml).\n* Significant cardiac, liver, or neurologic disease.\n* For group A:\n* Opportunistic infection or malignancy fulfilling definition of AIDS, or with concurrent neoplasm other than basal cell carcinoma of the skin or in situ carcinoma of the cervix.\n* For group B:\n* Active opportunistic infection, symptomatic visceral Kaposi's sarcoma (KS), progression of KS within the month prior to study entry, or with concurrent neoplasms other than KS, basal cell carcinoma of the skin, or in situ carcinoma of the cervix.\n\nConcurrent Medication:\n\nExcluded:\n\n* Acyclovir therapy.\n* Chemoprophylaxis for Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia.\n* Other antiretroviral agents, biologic modifiers, or systemic corticosteroids.\n* Other experimental medications, sedatives, and barbiturates.\n* Group B:\n* Therapy and/or prophylaxis for AIDS-defining opportunistic infection, antineoplastic therapy.\n\nConcurrent Treatment:\n\nExcluded:\n\n\\- Transfusion dependency (requiring 2 units of blood more than once per month).
