Summary

The use of lubiprostone will decrease the levels of immune activation in HIV-infected subjects with incomplete CD4+ T-cell recovery with antiretroviral therapy (ART).

* Lubiprostone will decrease levels of translocated gut microbial products in HIV-infected subjects with incomplete CD4+ T-cell recovery with ART.
* The decrease in levels of translocated gut microbial products will be associated with a decline in the levels of immune activation in HIV-infected subjects with incomplete CD4+ T-cell recovery with ART.
