Brief Summary
This study will assess how effective, safe, and long-lasting a long-acting antiretroviral therapy (ART) using CAB LA + RPV LA is for people with HIV who still have detectable virus levels despite being on oral ART. The study will also consider feedback from patients on their experience with this treatment.

Study Arms (2)
CAB LA + RPV LA Group
EXPERIMENTALParticipants receive initial injections at Day 1 and Month 1, followed by maintenance injections every 2 months for up to 24 months.
Oral ART Control Group
ACTIVE COMPARATORParticipants continue to take their current oral ART for 6 months, including a final dose at their first injection visit.
Interventions
Oral medication provided to participants by the site/their regular healthcare professional (HCP) as part of their standard of care (SOC) treatment.
Intramuscular injection administered monthly for first 2 initiation doses then every 2 months.
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Age
- \. Aged \>=12 years and \>=35 kg (at the time of obtaining informed consent).
- Type of Participant and Disease Characteristics 2.HIV-1 infection, documented by any licensed rapid HIV test or HIV enzyme or chemiluminescence immunoassay (E/CIA) test kit at any time prior to study entry and confirmed by a licensed Western blot or a second antibody test by a method other than the initial rapid HIV and/or E/CIA, or by HIV-1 antigen, plasma HIV-1 RNA VL.
- Plasma HIV-1 RNA \>1 000 c/mL and greater than (\<) 100 000 c/mL at Screening. 4.Evidence of insufficient virologic response to participant's current oral ART regimen within 18 months prior to study entry according to at least 1 of the following criteria: i.\<1 log10 decrease in HIV-1 RNA or HIV-1 RNA \>200 c/mL at 2 time points at least 4 weeks apart in individuals who have been prescribed oral ART for at least 3 consecutive months.
- ii. Documented lapse in current oral ART regimen usage expected to result in HIV-1 viremia (defined as at least a 30-day consecutive period of non-use of oral ART) iii. Documented need for change from oral ART regimen that investigator attributes as primary reason for insufficient virologic response (e.g., safety findings and/or limited tolerability, clinically relevant DDIs).
- Currently being treated with an oral ART regimen specific regimen to be recorded at Screening, and willing to continue taking that regimen until approximately 1 week after the Month 6 visit.
- Pregnancy, Sex and Contraceptive/Barrier Requirements 5. Person of childbearing potential (POCBP) must have a negative serum or urine pregnancy test at screening and on Day 1.
- Informed Consent/Assent 6.Informed consent/Assent must be provided as follows:
- Adult participants (\>=18 years old) must be capable of giving signed informed consent as described in the full study protocol, which includes compliance with the requirements and restrictions listed in the informed consent form (ICF) and stated in the full study protocol.
- For adolescent participants (12 to \<18 years of age at screening), the parent(s) or legal guardian must be capable of giving signed informed consent.
You may not qualify if:
- Medical Conditions
- HIV-1 Subtype A6, if known from historical result.
- Participants who are pregnant, breast/chest feeding or plan to become pregnant or breast/chest feed during the study.
- Unstable liver disease (as defined by the presence of ascites, encephalopathy, coagulopathy, hypoalbuminemia, esophageal or gastric varices, or persistent jaundice), cirrhosis, known biliary abnormalities (with the exception of hyperbilirubinemia or jaundice due to Gilbert's syndrome or asymptomatic gallstones).
- History of liver cirrhosis with or without hepatitis viral co-infection.
- Participants with severe hepatic impairment (Class C) as determined by Child-Pugh classification.
- Participants with HCV co-infection will be excluded entry into this study if they are currently receiving anti-HCV therapy at baseline (Day 1).
- Participants determined by the investigator to have a high risk of seizures, including participants with an unstable or poorly controlled seizure disorder.
- History of sensitivity to any of the study medications or their components or drugs of their class, or a history of drug or other allergy that, in the opinion of the investigator or Medical Monitor, contraindicates their participation.
- Participants who in the investigator's judgment, pose a significant suicidality risk. Participant's history of suicidal behaviour and/or suicidal ideation should be considered when evaluating for suicide risk.
- Any pre-existing physical or mental condition which, in the opinion of the Investigator, may interfere with the participant's ability to comply with the dosing schedule and/or protocol evaluations or which may compromise the safety of the participant.
- Prior/Concomitant Therapy
- Any previous use of CAB.
- Current or anticipated need for chronic anti-coagulants.
- Use of concomitant medications which are associated with Torsades de Pointes (TdP).
