Study Summary

Background: HIV can sometimes cause HIV-associated neurocognitive disorder, or HAND. HAND is HIV-associated neurocognitive disorder. It can affect memory, thinking, or concentration. It can cause mood changes. HAND may be caused by HIV hiding in the central nervous system then causing inflammation. Researchers want to see if a drug for inflammation (Anakinra) can help people with HIV. Objective: To see if a drug for inflammatory diseases is safe for people with HIV-infection on antiretroviral therapy. Eligibility: Adults 18-61 years old with HIV who are enrolled in another study. Design: Participants will be screened with medical history, physical exam, and blood and urine tests. Participants will have up to 15 study visits over 16 weeks. At study visit 1, participants will have: * Screening tests repeated. * Brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans. They will lie on a table that slides into a metal cylinder in a strong magnetic field. They will get a dye inserted by a thin plastic tube in a vein. * Lumbar puncture. The lower back will be numbed. A needle will collect fluid from between bones in the back. * Tests of memory, thinking, and attention. Participants may also fill out forms and do tasks. Participants will learn how to inject the study drug. Over 8 weeks, they will give themselves the study drug at home every day. They will do up to 3 injections at once. They will write down their injections and any side effects. Participants will have 5 weekly visits while taking the study drug. They will answer questions and have blood drawn. At weeks 8 and 16, they will have a visit that repeats visit 1.
