Abstract:

We study the effect of continuous versus intermittent antiretroviral therapy on CD4 responses in HIV infected patients undergoing IL-2 cycle. Each patient in the study goes through multiple switches between continuous and intermittent IL-2 cycles, where switches are not randomized but depend on the patient's disease status. We propose a causal estimation of the treatment effect, which takes into account the repeated observations within each patient.
