Summary

The purpose of this study is to see if it is safe to give ALVAC-HIV vCP205, a possible HIV vaccine, and to study the immune responses in adult HIV-1 uninfected volunteers.

Uganda has been severely affected by HIV infection and AIDS and has been selected to participate in HIV-vaccine development. The HIV viruses commonly isolated from Uganda are 2 kinds that are not used in making current vaccines. Current vaccines generate several kinds of immune responses. Researchers would like to see if a response to the kind of virus in a current vaccine will also protect people from the viruses commonly found in Uganda.
