"The major Immunotech compound ITV-1 is a suspension of inactivated pepsin fragment (IPF), which, according to studies conducted, is believed to be effective in the treatment of HIV."

ITV-1 has revealed capability of modulating the immune system, as well as successfully completed its Phase I, II and III clinical trials in Sophia, Bulgaria, through Immunotech Laboratories BG – Europe, a subsidiary of the acquired organisation.

The final report of the Phase III trial was performed on a test group of salvage patients suffering from HIV / AIDS, and showed that improvement in the immune indices in the absolute number of Ly, CD3 T, CD4 T, CD8 T, B Ly, NK and in the percentage of CD3 T, CD4 T, CD8 T, B Ly, NK and of the index CD4/CD8 decreased in the viral load.

It also demonstrated a good treatment effect on opportunistic infections, compatibility with all of the other modern antiretroviral drugs and exceptional tolerance in all patients with a complete lack of any major side effects.

The validation of treatment manufacturing produced by a US contract manufacturer is currently in process.
