Intervention(s):

The study includes 2 treatment groups. Group I. Vaccine preparation This group will be administered 0.7 ml of (NAcGM3/VSSP)+Montanide ISA 51 vaccine. Group II. Placebo This group will be administered 0.7 ml of (Tris -HCl )+Montanide ISA 51 placebo. Both groups will receive a total of 15 vaccines by intramuscular route. The first 5 vaccines at 14 day intervals and the rest at 28 day intervals. The vaccine will be given in the deltoid region and gluteal region, if necessary; care must be taken to inject the muscle rather than the adipose panniculus around it. HIV patients included in the study will not be on anti-retroviral therapy during the study. If patients require anti-retroviral drugs, the treatment will be considered interrupted.
