Summary

This is a phase I, single-site, study to evaluate the effects of VOR and HIV-1 Antigen Expanded Specific T Cell Therapy (HXTC) on persistent HIV-1 Infection in HIV-infected individuals suppressed on ART. Twelve participants with durable viral suppression will be enrolled and will complete the study. All participants will receive the same treatment and if eligible, will be dosed with HXTC and VOR. Participants will continue their baseline ART regimen throughout the study.

Conditions

  • HIV-1 Infection

Interventions

DRUG

Vorinostat

Participants meeting criteria for Step 1 (exhibit ex-vivo response to VOR) will progress to Step 2 where they will receive a single dose of VOR 400 mg followed by a leukapheresis. If an increase in cell-associated HIV RNA (ca-RNA) is observed in-vivo following the single VOR dose, they will be eligible to donate cells for the manufacture of HXTC (Step 3). Successful manufacturing of the HIV-1 antigen expanded specific T cells will progress participants to combination treatment in Steps 4 and 5. In Steps 4 and Step 5, participants will receive two series of VOR dosing and HXTC infusions, for a total 20 doses of VOR 400 mg and 5 HXTC infusions.
