Brief Summary
Thilao is a multi-country, phase 2b, non-randomized study, in Burkina Faso, Cote d'Ivoire, Mali and Senegal, West Africa. HIV-1 adults with 2nd-line ART virologic failure (plasma HIV-1 RNA \>1000 copies/ml) will be recruited and followed in two phases:
- First, a 12-week intentive adherence reinforcement phase, during which patients will continue 2nd-line ART, be seen repeatidly for counseling and educational training on adherence, and be offered the possibility of phone, SMS and home visit contacts with social workers;
- Second, a 48-week phase, during which:
- Patients successfully resuppressed at the end of the first phase will continue 2nd-line ART and adherence reinforcement;
- Patients with persitent virologic failure will switch to a darunavir/r + raltegravir-based 3rd-line ART. Genotype resistance tests will be performed retrospectively on frozen samples. The main outcome will be the percentage of patients with plasma HIV-1 viral RNA \<50 copies/ml at 64 weeks.

Week 12
Persistent virologic efficacy of the adherence reinforcement intervention
Proportion of patients with plasma viral load \<50 copies/ ml at Week 64 among those who stayed on 2nd-line ART at Week 16
Week 64
Virologic efficacy of 3rd-line ART
Proportion of patients with HIV-1 plasma viral load \<50 copies/ml at Week 64 among those with persistent failure at Week 12 who switched to 3rd-line ART

Study Arms (1)
Adherence reinforcement before switch to 3rd-line ART
EXPERIMENTALInterventions
Directly observed treatment at home (family or relatives DOT); pillboxes; phone calls; SMS; home visits; adherence reinforcement sessions by trained health workers.
Second-line ART regimen : ongoing regimen at the time of inclusion will be continued. Third-line ART regimen : Darunavir/r + Raltegravir + 2 NRTIs (as chosen by the investigators)
