Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: Subjects must meet all of the following inclusion criteria to be eligible for participation in this study: •The ability to understand and sign a written informed consent form, which must be obtained prior to initiation of study procedures. •Currently receiving antiretroviral therapy with a ritonavir-boosted PI and two NRTIs continuously for =6 months preceding the screening visit •Have plasma HIV-1 RNA concentrations (at least two measurements) at undetectable levels (according to the local assay being used) for =6 months prior to the screening visit and have HIV RNA 50 copies/mL at the time of the change in antiretroviral drugs, nor ever experienced two consecutive HIV RNA >50 copies/mL after first achieving HIV RNA 5 x ULN will remain eligible if serum lipase is =5 x ULN) •Adequate renal function: Estimated glomerular filtration rate =70 mL/min according to the Cockcroft Gault formula: Male: ((140 – age in years) x (wt in kg))/ (72 x (serum creatinine in mg/dL)) = CLcr (mL/min) Female: ((140 – age in years) x (wt in kg) x 0.85) / (72 x (serum creatinine in mg/dL) = CLcr (mL/min) •Females of childbearing potential (as defined in Section 7.8) must agree to utilize highly effective contraception methods (two separate forms of contraception, one of which must be an effective barrier method, or be non-heterosexually active, practice sexual abstinence or have a vasectomized partner) from screening throughout the duration of the study period and for 30 days following the last dose of study drug. — Female subjects who utilize hormonal contraceptive as one of their birth control methods must have used the same method for at least three months prior to study dosing — Female subjects who have stopped menstruating for < 12 months, or serum follicle stimulating hormone level is not within the post-menopausal range must agree to utilize highly effective contraceptive methods •Male subjects must agree to utilize a highly effective method of contraception during heterosexual intercourse from the screening visit, throughout the duration of the study and for 30 days following discontinuation of investigational medicinal product. A highly effective method of contraception is defined as two separate forms of contraception, one of which must be an effective barrier method, or male subjects must be non heterosexually active, practice sexual abstinence, or be vasectomized • Age =18 years • Life expectancy =1 year Are the trial subjects under 18? no Number of subjects for this age range: F.1.2 Ad

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: Subjects who meet any of the following exclusion criteria are not to be enrolled in (or may be discontinued from) this study. • A new AIDS defining condition diagnosed within the 30 days prior to screening (except CD4 cell count and/or percentage criteria) (refer to Appendix 5) • Females who are breastfeeding • Positive serum pregnancy test (female of childbearing potential) • Proven or suspected acute hepatitis in the 30 days prior to study entry. • Current alcohol or substance abuse judged by the Investigator to potentially interfere with subject compliance. • A history of malignancy within the past 5 years (prior to screening) or ongoing malignancy other than cutaneous Kaposi's sarcoma (KS), basal cell carcinoma, or resected, non-invasive cutaneous squamous carcinoma. Subjects with cutaneous KS are eligible, but must not have received any systemic therapy for KS within 30 days of Baseline and must not be anticipated to require systemic therapy during the study. • Active, serious infections (other than HIV-1 infection) requiring parenteral antibiotic or antifungal therapy within 30 days prior to Baseline. • Anticipated need to initiate drugs during the study that are contraindicated as indicated below, including drugs not to be used with FTC, TDF, RPV (refer to the Prescribing Information for FTC and TDF, and Investigator’s Brochure for RPV); or subjects with known allergies to the excipients of FTC/RPV/TDF FDR tablets or Truvada tablets. Also refer to the PI Prescribing Information for subjects enrolled in Treatment Arm 2. • All investigational drugs • Medications listed in the the following table and use of herbal/natural supplements are excluded or should be used with caution while subjects are participating in the study including those not to be taken with Viread®, Emtriva ®, Truvada®, and Rilpivirine. Refer to the current Prescribing Information for these medications for additional information. Drug Class Agents Disallowed Antiarrhythmics: Bepridil Anticonvulsants: Phenobarbital, carbamazepine, oxarbazepine, and phenytoin Antibiotics: Rifabutin, rifampin, rifapentine, telithromycin, troleandomycin Glucocorticoids (systemic): Dexamethasone and other glucocorticoids Ergot Derivatives: Ergotamine, Ergonovine, Dihydroergotamine, Methylergonovine Ergometrine Proton Pump Inhibitors: Omeprazole, lansoprazole, rabeprazole, pantoprazole, esomeprazole Herbal/Natural Supplements: St. John’s Wort, Echinaccea • Participation in any other clinical trial without prior approval from the sponsor is prohibited while participating in this trial. • Have been treated with immunosuppressant therapies or chemotherapeutic agents within 3 months of study screening, or expected to receive these agents or systemic steroids during the study (e.g., corticosteroids, immunoglobulins, and other immune- or cytokine based therapies). • Have a history of liver disease, including Gilbert’s Disease. • Any other clinical condition or prior therapy that, in the opinion of the Investigator, would make the subject unsuitable for the study or unable to comply with the dosing requirements.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: To evaluate the non-inferiority of FTC/RPV/TDF relative to regimens consisting of a ritonavir-boosted protease inhibitor (PI/r) and two nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs) in maintaining HIV-1 RNA <50 copies/mL at Week 24.;Secondary Objective: To evaluate the change from baseline in fasting lipid parameters (total cholesterol, LDL and HDL cholesterol, and triglycerides) over 24 and 48 weeks. To evaluate the safety and tolerability of each treatment arm over 24 and 48 weeks. To evaluate the change from baseline in CD4 cell count in each treatment arm at 24 and 48 weeks. ;Primary end point(s): The primary efficacy endpoint is the proportion of subjects with HIV-1 RNA < 50 copies/mL at Week 24 as defined by the FDA snapshot analysis.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Week 24

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): The secondary endpoints are: • The change from baseline in fasting lipid parameters (total cholesterol, LDL and HDL cholesterol, and triglycerides) over 24 and 48 weeks. • The safety and tolerability of each treatment arm over 24 and 48 weeks. • The change from baseline in CD4 cell count in each treatment arm at 24 and 48 weeks.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Any point of virologic failure, week 24 and week 48
