To assess the safety and efficacy of nonmyeloablative allogeneic transplantation in patients with HIV infection, a clinical protocol was initiated in patients with refractory hematologic malignancies and concomitant HIV infection. The results from the first 2 patients are reported. The indications for transplantation were treatment-related acute myelogenous leukemia and primary refractory Hodgkin disease in patients 1 and 2, respectively. Only patient 1 received genetically modified cells. Both patients tolerated the procedure well with minimal toxicity, and complete remissions were achieved in both patients, but patient 2 died of relapsed Hodgkin disease 12 months after transplantation. Patient 1 continues in complete remission with undetectable HIV levels and rising CD4 counts, and with both the therapeutic and control gene transfer vectors remaining detectable at low levels more than 2 years after transplantation. These results suggest that nonmyeloablative allogeneic transplantation in the context of highly active antiretroviral therapy is feasible in patients with treatment-sensitive HIV infection.
