Study Summary

The purpose of this study was to find out about the safety of sirolimus in individuals with HIV infection who were also being treated with ART. The investigators wanted to learn whether sirolimus decreases inflammation and immune activation in the body; whether sirolimus changes the level of HIV in the participants' blood; and how sirolimus interacts with ART in the blood. Sirolimus is approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to prevent organ rejection in patients aged 13 years and older receiving kidney transplants. Sirolimus had also been used for the prevention of complications after stem cell transplants and as a treatment for certain kinds of cancers in HIV-infected patients.

Primary Outcome

The study-defined primary safety endpoint was a composite endpoint. A participant was considered to have met the endpoint if the participant 1) experienced a new Grade ≥3 Adverse Event (AE), including signs/symptoms, lab toxicity or clinical event, that was definitely, probably or possibly related to study treatment, as judged by the core team, or 2) had a change in CD4+ cell count ( confirmed \>50% decline or to \<300 cells/mm3) while on sirolimus. The screening visit occurred within 60 days of
