to all: this is an experiment - I am going to post something that most of us would not find offensive, and we'll see if any people who participate on this thread lose their temper. OK, here we go...

"Experiment Combines Drug With HIV Vaccine"
Reuters (01/24/98)
University of Pennsylvania researchers plan to combine an
HIV vaccine with proven triple-drug therapy, hoping that the
vaccine will work better in patients who have the virus under
control. Under the trial, the vaccine--Apollon Inc.'s
Malvern--will be administered to 21 patients receiving
triple-drug treatments. Malvern, which uses four pieces of HIV's
DNA, has shown promise in trials but has not yet been proven to
slow infection. Dr. Rob McGregor, director of clinical AIDS
research at the University of Pennsylvania, believes that an
enhanced response may be achieved in patients whose immune
systems have stabilized.
