Abstract

The present invention relates to the use of rapamycin or an analog of rapamycin in the manufacture of a medicament for treating, arresting the development or retarding the progression of an HIV infection in an amount sufficient to achieve a reduction in the level of serum p24 antigen; and to the use of rapamycin or analog of rapamycin for treating, arresting the development or retarding the progression of AIDS in a mammal. The invention also relates to a method for treating, arresting the development or retarding the progression of AIDS in a mammal in need thereof by administering to the mammal an amount of rapamycin or analog of rapamycin sufficient to achieve a reduction in the level of serum p24 antigen.

Claims

AMENDED CLAIMS[received by the International Bureau on 23 February 1994 (23.02.94); original claims 2, 14 and 24 deleted; remaining claims amended and renumbered as claims 1-22 (3 pages)]
1. Use of rapamycin in the manufacture of a medicament for treating, arresting the development or retarding the progression of an HIV infection in an amount sufficient to achieve a reduction in the level of serum p24 antigen.
2. The use according to claim 1, wherein said medicament further comprises another anti-HIV agent.
3. The use according to claim 2, wherein said other anti- HIV agent is a reverse transcriptase inhibitor.
4. The use according to claim 3, wherein said reverse transcriptase inhibitor is selected from AZT, d4T, ddC, ddl, 3TC or analogs of 3TC.
5. The use according to claim 4, wherein said reverse transcriptase inhibitor is present in an amount effective to inhibit HIV replication.
6. The use claimed in any one of claims 1 to 5, wherein the medicament is adapted for oral administration.
7. The use claimed in any one of claims 1 to 5, wherein the medicament is adapted for parenteral administration.
8. The use claimed in any one of claims 1 to 5, wherein the medicament is in unit dosage form.
9. The use claimed in any one of claims 1 to 5, wherein said rapamycin is present in said medicament to administer a dose ranging from 0.25 to 500 mg/ g of body weight per day.
22
10. The use according to claim 9, wherein said rapamycin is present in said medicament to administer a dose ranging from 5 to 500 mg/kg of body weight per day.
11. The use according to claim 10, wherein said rapamycin is present in said medicament to administer a dose ranging from 10 to 250 mg/kg of body weight per day.
12. A method for treating, arresting the development' or retarding the progression of AIDS in a mammal in need thereof which comprises administering to said mammal an amount of rapamycin sufficient to achieve a reduction in the level of serum p24 antigen.
13. A method according to claim 12, wherein said rapamycin is administered orally or parenterally.
14. The method according to claim 12, further comprising administering said rapamycin in combination with another anti-HIV agent.
15. The method according to claim 14, wherein said other anti-HIV agent is a reverse transcriptase inhibitor.
16. The method according to claim 15, wherein said reverse transcriptase inhibitor is selected from AZT, d4T, ddC, ddl, 3TC or analogs of 3TC.
17. The method according to claim 16, wherein said reverse transcriptase inhibitor is administered in an amount effective to inhibit HIV replication.
18. The method according to anyone of claims 12 to 17 wherein said rapamycin is administered in a dose ranging from 0.25 to 500 mg/kg of body weight per day.
19. The method according to claim 18, wherein said rapamycin is administered in a dose ranging from 5 to 500 mg/kg of body weight per day.
20. The method according to claim 19, wherein said rapamycin is administered in a dose ranging from 10 to 250 mg/kg of body weight per day.
21. Use of rapamycin for treating, arresting the development or retarding the progression of AIDS in a mammal.
22. A method for treating, arresting the development or retarding the progression of AIDS in a mammal in need thereof which comprises administering to said mammal an anti-HIV effective amount of rapamycin.
