NCT04225325

Brief Summary

Multicenter, parallel group, randomised, open label, study. Twenty-five clinical centers constituting the InAction network will participate the study. Eligible patients will be randomised in a ratio 10:10:8 to be treated with one of the three antiretroviral regimens:

  • TDF/FTC 245 mg/200 mg single tablet QD + DRV /cobicistat 800 mg /150 mg single tablet QD (Arm A, standard regimen),
  • TDF/FTC 245 mg/200 mg single tablet QD + DTG 50 mg QD (Arm B, standard regimen).
  • TDF/FTC 245 mg/200 mg single tablet QD + DRV 800 mg /cobicistat single tablet QD + DTG 50 mg QD (Arm C, experimental regimen). One-hundred-and-twelve PHI subjects will be recruited for this study among those attending the outpatient Clinic of Infectious Diseases, Ospedale San Raffaele and other Italian centres, involved in the INACTION network.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • the change of total HIV-DNA level from baseline to 48 weeks.

    The primary objective of the study is to compare the proviral DNA change in patients who started three different antiretroviral treatments.

    48 weeks

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • the proportion of patients with HIV-1 RNA <50 copies/mL

    weeks 12, 24 and 48

  • time to achieve undetectable viral load

    week 12 and week 48

  • change in HIV-DNA

    week 12 and week 48

  • change in HIV-1 RNA in CSF

    week 12 and 48

  • Subjects must have given written informed consent and must be able to adhere to dose and visit schedules.
  • Female subjects of child-bearing potential must agree to use a medically accepted method of contraception.
  • Female subjects of child-bearing potential must have a negative serum beta-hCG pregnancy test at Screening, and a negative urine beta-HCG pregnancy test on Day 1 prior to dosing.
  • A female, may be eligible to enter and participate in the study if she:
