Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: 1. Is male or female aged 18 years or over. 2. Has documented HIV-1 infection. 3. Is capable of giving informed consent. 4. Is willing to comply with the protocol requirements. 5. Virologically suppressed (plasma HIV-RNA 24 weeks. 6. Subjects are required to have a history of the K103N mutation (acquired or selected). Subjects who at any time have had the mutations 100I, 101E/P, 106A/M, 138K/G/Q, 181C/I/V, 188L, 190A/S/E/Q, 230L mutations are to be excluded. Other NNRTI region variants can be included. All PI and NRTI mutations are acceptable. Study sites may ask the coordinating centre for advice as required. 7. Subjects must have never failed INSTI (2 x VL >200 >2 weeks apart) but current regimen can include INSTI. 8. A female, may be eligible to enter and participate in the study if she: is of non-child-bearing potential defined as post-menopausal (12 months of spontaneous amenorrhea without an alternative medical cause and = 45 years of age). A high follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) level consistent with postmenopausal status may be used to confirm a post- menopausal state in women who are not using hormonal contraception) or hormonal replacement therapy at the discretion of the PI. However, in the absence of 12 months of amenorrhea, a single FSH measurement alone is insufficient. OR is physically incapable of becoming pregnant with documented tubal ligation, hysterectomy or bilateral oophorectomy or, OR is of child-bearing potential with a negative pregnancy test at Screening (& baseline visit) and agrees to use one of the following methods of contraception to avoid pregnancy: True abstinence from penile-vaginal intercourse from 2 weeks prior to administration of IP, throughout the study, and for at least 2 weeks after discontinuation of all study medications (When this is in line with the preferred and usual lifestyle of the subject.) (Periodic abstinence (e.g., calendar, ovulation, symptothermal, post-ovulation methods), and withdrawal are not acceptable methods of contraception]; Any intrauterine device (IUD) with published data showing that the expected failure rate is =65 years) yes F.1.3.1 Number of subjects for this age range 150
Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: 1. Infected with HIV-2. 2. Detectable HIV-1 RNA at screening (HIV-1 RNA measurement >=50 c/mL). 3. Subjects requiring regular dosing doing with H2 or PPI antacid medications or a history of achlorhidria or drug known to interact with RPV or DTG. 4. Use of medications that are associated with Torsades de Pointes. 5. Corrected QT interval (QTc [Bazett]) >450 milliseconds or QTc (Bazett) >480 milliseconds for participants with bundle branch block. The QTc is the QT interval corrected for heart rate according to Bazett's formula (QTcB). 6. Unstable health conditions (i.e. opportunistic infections, cancers, unstable liver disease etc). 7. Any evidence of an active Centres for Disease Control and Prevention Category C disease. Exceptions include cutaneous Kaposi's sarcoma not requiring systemic therapy and historic CD4+ lymphocyte counts of <200 cells/millimeter^3. 8. History or presence of allergy to the study drugs or their components or drugs of their class. 9. Ongoing malignancy other than cutaneous Kaposi's sarcoma, basal cell carcinoma, or resected, non- invasive cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma, or cervical intraepithelial neoplasia; other localised malignancies require agreement between the investigator and the Study medical monitor for inclusion of the subject prior to randomisation. 10. Any pre-existing physical or mental condition which, in the opinion of the Investigator, may interfere with the subject's ability to comply with the dosing schedule and/or protocol evaluations or which may compromise the safety of the participants. Subjects considered to pose a significant risk of suicide should be excluded. 11. Any condition which, in the opinion of the Investigator, may interfere with the absorption, distribution, metabolism or excretion of the study drugs or render the subject unable to take oral medication. 12. Using any concomitant therapy disallowed as per the reference safety information and product labelling for the study drugs. Specifically, co-administration with the following medicinal products is not allowed: o dofetilide or pilsicainide; o fampridine (also known as dalfampridine); o carbamazepine, oxcarbazepine, phenobarbital, phenytoin; o rifampicin, rifapentine; o proton pump inhibitors, such as omeprazole, esomeprazole, lansoprazole, pantoprazole, rabeprazole; o systemic dexamethasone, except as a single dose treatment; o St John's wort (Hypericum perforatum). 13. Has acute viral hepatitis including, but not limited to, A, B, or C. 14. Active hepatitis B/ Hep B non-immune subjects who have failed vaccination (antibody concentration < 10 international units). (If local practice does not include vaccination of low risk patients, then the patients without HBsAb are not excluded – this must be clearly documented in the medical records and eCRF). Note: subjects can be re screened if they receive vaccination and subsequently meet eligibility criteria. 15. Evidence of Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection based on the results of testing at Screening for Hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg), Hepatitis B core antibody (anti-HBc), and Hepatitis B surface antibody (HBsAb) as follows: Participants positive for HBsAg are excluded; Participants positive for anti-HBc (negative HBsAg status) and negative for HBsAb are excluded (if local practice does not include vaccination of low risk patients, then the patients without HBsAb are not excluded – this must be clearly documented in the medical records and eCRF).

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: To compare efficacy of DTG/RPV combined tablet versus continued antiretroviral treatment regimen at 48 weeks in individuals with the K103N resistance mutation.;Secondary Objective: To investigate whether switching patients to DTG/RPV FDC is associated with improvement of lipid profile, patient satisfaction, quality of life and potential for drug-drug interactions, investigated over time through 96 weeks with evaluation (and comparison to control arm) at week 24, 48 and 96. To evaluate DTG & RPV concentrations in blood. To evaluate changes in cell associated virus. ;Primary end point(s): 1. Virological suppression (50 copies at least 2 weeks apart, investigated over 48 weeks. ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 48 weeks | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary end point(s): 1. Proportion of participants with plasma HIV-1 RNA <50 c/mL at week 24, 48 and 96. 2. Changes in laboratory parameter from baseline 3. Changes in renal markers, bone markers, and fasting lipids from baseline, week 24, 48 and 96. 4. Resistance in failures (descriptive analysis) and baseline factors associated with failures. 5. Changes in QoL and patient satisfaction from baseline. 6. Number of participants with adverse events (AEs), Severity of AEs, and treatment discontinuations due to AEs. 7.

Virological suppression (<200 copies/ml HIV RNA) at week 24, 48, 96 in individuals with previous NNRTIs virological failure and/or baseline transmitted resistance with the k103N resistance mutation, switching to DTG/RPV FDC. Analysed in line with FDA Snapshot method. 9. Pre-dose plasma concentrations of DTG and RPV at week 4 (experimental arm only), 48 (experimental arm only) &96. Plus pre/post-dose (as appropriate) at early termination visit and /or in the event of virological failure, a post dose sample will be taken within 20-28 hours. 10.
