A Phase I/II Study of Hyperimmune IVIG in Slowing Progression of Disease in HIV-Infected Children
To evaluate the safety, tolerance, pharmacokinetics, and antiviral activity of human anti-HIV immune serum globulin ( HIVIG ) at three dosage levels in HIV-infected children.
Passive antibody therapy has been used with limited success in treating advanced HIV disease in adults. HIVIG is manufactured from HIV antibody-rich plasma taken from asymptomatic donors. It is hypothesized that HIVIG will decrease the viral burden of moderately advanced HIV-positive children.

Children are randomized to receive HIVIG every 4 weeks for 6 months at one of three dose levels, then are followed for 3 months after the final infusion.
