Five HIV p24 antigen (p24Ag)-positive patients received alpha interferon during trials of therapy for hepatitis B. Four of these showed marked falls in p24Ag during treatment. One of the two patients who became p24Ag-negative [corrected] developed anti-p24 antibodies (anti-p24). Five out of nine p24Ag-negative HIV-antibody-positive patients showed a rise in anti-p24 titres during interferon therapy, whereas only two out of six untreated controls showed a similar rise. This study provides evidence that alpha interferon has anti-HIV activity in vivo.
