Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • To evaluate the virological response over the 48 weeks of the study.

    At 12, 24, 36 and 48 weeks

Secondary Outcomes (5)

  • To evaluate the immunological efficacy (changes in CD4 and CD8 counts) of the combination studied over the follow-up period.

    At 12, 24, 36 and 48 weeks.

  • To evaluate the impact of treatment on the lipid profile.

    At 12, 24, 36 and 48 weeks

  • To evaluate the tolerance and safety of the combination of Efavirenz + lamivudine + abacavir given once daily over the 48-week treatment period.

    At 12, 24, 36 and 48 weeks.

  • To evaluate treatment adherence (assessed by a self-reported questionnaire and with graduated satisfaction scales) and patient quality of life (assessed by means of the MOS-HIV questionnaire).

    At 12, 24, 36 and 48 weeks.

  • To analyse the mutations that appear in patients that present virological failure.

    When there is a virological failure.
