The institution listed isfor the Center, which is not necessarily the institution for the investigator.The purpose of this study is to compare the effects of subcutaneous recombinant interleukin-2 (SC rIL-2) and no SC rIL-2 on disease progression and death over an average follow-up period of 6-7 years in patients with HIV-1 infection on stable antiretroviral therapy who have a CD4+ count between 50 and 299 cells mm3 and a viral load <10,000 copies/ml. The primary objective is to compare the rate of disease progression (new or recurrent events) or death, over an average of 6-7 years of follow-up (range 5-8 years) in groups of patients randomly assigned to receive SC rIL-2 or no rIL-2 (control). Both randomized treatment groups must receive combination antiretroviral treatment, with the choice of combination therapy at the discretion of the treating clinician.
