Transient high titers of HIV-1 in plasma and progression of disease.

Periodic quantitative HIV-1 plasma cultures were performed on 28 seropositive individuals who had CD4 cells < or = 300/mm3 and who were enrolled in three clinical trials testing the efficacy of didanosine versus zidovudine monotherapy. Most plasma cultures were negative or of low titer (1-100 tissue culture infective dose/ml of plasma), but there were 14 instances of high-titered plasma viremia (> or = 1,000 tissue culture infective dose/ml of plasma) seen in 11 individuals. These peaks in plasma culture titers were significantly associated either with rapidly decreasing CD4 cell numbers or with CD4 cells already < 50/mm3. In addition, patients who experienced these episodes of high-titered plasma viremia were more apt to have clinical complaints of fever, rash, flu-like illness, and/or opportunistic infection and also the syncytium-inducing HIV-1 phenotype and progression of disease.
