NCT04022967

Brief Summary

MODERATO is a phase III, open-label, randomized, multicenter, non-inferiority trial conducted in West and Central Africa (Cameroon, Côte d'Ivoire, Burkina Faso). HIV-1 infected adults receiving first line ART with TDF+XTC+EFV or DTG+XTC+TDF virologically suppressed will be recruited and followed during 100 weeks. The objective is to assess the non-inferiority of a strategy consisting of switching to a dual maintenance therapy (DTG+3TC or ATV/r+3TC), comparing to WHO standard first line regimen (TDF+3TC+EFV or DTG+3TC+TDF), in terms of virological success at 96 weeks

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • The treatment success, as defined by using the FDA snapshot algorithm

    Success : The proportion of patients who are still continuing the assigned strategy and whose last available plasma HIV-1 RNA in the the window analysis is \<50 copies/ml at the end of the window analysis. Failure : patients who have discontinued the assigned strategy or whose last available plasma HIV-1 RNA in the window analysis (90 to 102 weeks) is ≥ 50 copies/ml or with no available HIV-1 RNA in the window analysis

    90 to 102 weeks

Secondary Outcomes (22)

  • Failure combined endpoint

    Between Day 0 and Week 96

  • Plasma HIV-1 RNA

    Between Day 0 and Week 96

  • Virological success

    Between Day 0 and Week 96

  • CD4 lymphocyte

    Between Day 0 and Week 96

  • Virological failure and new resistance mutations

    Week 48 and Week 96

  • +17 more secondary outcomes
