 AB    OBJECTIVE. Immunological monitoring of the group of HIV patients.
       Evaluation of the disease stage and the efficacy of therapeutic
       approaches. METHODS. Since 1985, the group of HIV-infected patients was
       under clinical and immunological investigation. RESULTS. The correlation
       between the parameters of immune status (CD5, CD2, CD4, CD8, CD10, CD3)
       and viral antigen levels in blood and urine was established. The use of
       Tat-blocking compounds for treatment of patients with severe AIDS was
       shown to lead to remission, followed by decrease of HIV antigenemia.
       DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSIONS. The best clinico-immunological effect and
       the more favourable prognosis in regards to survival length can be
       achieved in the case of early intervention using combined therapy.
