IMMUNOTHERAPEUTIC COMPOSITIONS FOR THE TREATMENT OF ACQUIRED IMMUNE DEFICIENCY SYNDROME.

摘要

Methods and compositions useful for treating acquired immune deficiency syndrome by once daily administration of substances characteristic of acquired immune deficiency syndrome-afflicted cell (such as human chorionic gonadotropin), and effective fragments and derivatives thereof, in a pharmaceutically effective amount less that the lowest amount necessary to provoke a humoral immune response, as exemplified by the existence of a negative wheal upon subcutaneous administration. Illustrative of such methods and compositions is the administration of a composition including human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG), a lysate of Staphylococcus aureus, influenza virus vaccine, and fractionated HIV virus, including peptide T.
