Baseline characteristics of patients with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection who received modified or unmodified CD8+ T cells

Characteristic Modified cells (n = 21)Unmodified cells (n = 9) P
Median CD4 count, (range)  241 (52-746)  193 (14-674) .28* 
HIV RNA 
 Median log10 copies/mL (range)  3.64 (1.50-5.23)  3.31 (1.70-6.01) .87* 
 No. (%) of patients with <50 copies/mL  3 (14) 0  
Antiretroviral therapy, no. of patients  
 None  1  
 NRTIs only  6  2  
 NRTIs and PI  14 
Characteristic Modified cells (n = 21)Unmodified cells (n = 9) P
Median CD4 count, (range)  241 (52-746)  193 (14-674) .28* 
HIV RNA 
 Median log10 copies/mL (range)  3.64 (1.50-5.23)  3.31 (1.70-6.01) .87* 
 No. (%) of patients with <50 copies/mL  3 (14) 0  
Antiretroviral therapy, no. of patients  
 None  1  
 NRTIs only  6  2  
 NRTIs and PI  14 

NRTIs indicates nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors; and PI, protease inhibitor.

*

By Wilcoxon rank-sum test.

HIV RNA values are based on 20 patients in the modified-cell group and 9 in the unmodified-cell group. One recipient of modified cells who did not have a baseline sample available was excluded from the analysis.
