| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: At the end of the trial when all samples have been analysed; Main Objective: The aim of the study is to compare cerebral function parameters in HIV-infected subjects receiving two different integrase-inhibitor containing antiretroviral regimens by assessing the following questions: -Principal research question: • Changes in neurocognitive function between study treatment arms. ; Secondary Objective: • Changes in cerebral biomarkers measured on CSF between study treatment arms. • Differences and changes in CSF infectivity assays between study treatment arms. • Differences and changes in cerebral imaging markers between study treatment arms. • The proportion of subjects with a CSF HIV RNA < 5 copies/mL. • Differences in changes of CNS metabolites after 120 days of treatment. • The CSF exposure and CSF:plasma ratio of dolutegravir and raltegravir. ; Primary end point(s): The aim of the study is to compare cerebral function parameters in HIV-infected subjects receiving two different integrase-inhibitor containing antiretroviral regimens by assessing the following questions: -Principal research question: • Changes in neurocognitive function between study treatment arms. | — |
