Study Summary

Background: \- Human T-cell lymphotropic virus type 1 associated myelopathy/tropical spastic paraparesis (HAM/TSP) is an infection of the spinal cord. The infection is caused by a virus that has been known to cause cancers like leukemia and lymphoma. It causes a weakening of the legs. Researchers want to see if raltegravir, a drug for treating human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), can be used to treat HAM/TSP. They will see if the drug can reduce the amount of virus in the blood of people with HAM/TSP. Objectives: \- To see if raltegravir can reduce the viral load of people with HAM/TSP. Eligibility: \- Individuals at least 18 years of age who have HAM/TSP. Design: * Participants will be screened with a physical exam and medical history. Blood samples will be collected. Imaging studies will be performed. A lumbar puncture will also be taken. * Participants will take the study drug twice a day for 6 months. They will note each dose in a study diary, as well as any side effects. * At the 6-month visit, participants will stop taking the study drug. They will have a physical exam and blood samples, as well as other tests. * Participants will have two further exams 9 months and 15 months after starting the study drug. They will have a physical exam and blood samples, as well as other tests.
