Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: 1. Male or female subjects's, aged 18 years or older; 2. S (Subject) with documented HIV-1 infection; 3. S has signed the ICF voluntarily; 4. S can comply with the protocol requirements; 5. S has never been treated with a therapeutic HIV vaccine or an ARV drug prior to screening; 6. S’s HIV-1 plasma viral load at screening is = 5,000 HIV-1 RNA copies/mL 7. In the judgment of the inv., it is appropriate to initiate ARV therapy based on the s’s medical condition and taking into account guidelines for the treatment of HIV-1 infection; 8. Demonstrated sensitivity to ABC and 3TC, AZT and 3TC, and/or TDF and FTC based on results from the screening virco®TYPE HIV-1 using the lower clinical cut-off or the biological cut-off on the screening virco®TYPE HIV-1 result) and available historical data; 9. S is HLA-B*5701 negative;HLA-B*5701 retesting is not required for subjects with prior documented HLA-B*5701 negative results; 10. S agrees not to start ART before the baseline visit; 11. S’s general medical condition, in the investigator’s opinion, does not interfere with the assessments and the completion of the trial.

| Primary end point(s): proportion of subjects with confirmed and sustained plasma viral load <50 HIV-1 RNA copies/mL (TLOVR algorithm) at Week 48;Main Objective: The primary objective of the trial is to demonstrate non-inferiority of treatment with TMC278 when administered as 25 mg q.d. compared to the control group (EFV) in regard to the proportion of virologic responders (plasma viral load < 50 HIV-1 RNA copies/mL, according to TLOVR algorithm) at 48 weeks in ARV-naïve HIV-infected subjects, with a maximum allowable difference of 12%.;Secondary Objective: -demonstrate non-inferiority of TMC278 compared to control (EFV) with a maximum allowable difference of 10% at 48 weeks for the primary efficacy endpoint. -evaluate superiority in efficacy of TMC278 compared to control, in case non-inferiority is established. -evaluate and compare safety and tolerability of TMC278 when administered as 25 mg q.d. vs control over 48 and 96 weeks -evaluate and compare antiviral activity of TMC278 when administered as 25 mg q.d. vs control over 48 and 96 weeks -evaluate and compare immunologic changes in TMC278 group versus those in control group over 48 and 96 weeks -assess evolution of viral genotype and phenotype over 48 and 96 weeks -evaluate population pharmacokinetics and PK/PD relationships for efficacy and safety of TMC278. -assess preference-based health states and medical resource utilization for use in future economic evaluations -assess treatment adherence as measured by Modified Medication Adherence Self-Report Inventory | — |
