Brief summary

This protocol describes a prospective, randomized, open-label, multicenter study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of switching from fixed dose abacavir (ABC)/lamivudine (3TC) to fixed dose emtricitabine (FTC)/tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) in virologically suppressed, human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infected subjects maintained on a ritonavir-boosted protease inhibitor (PI/r)-containing antiretroviral (ARV) regimen. Duration of treatment is 48 weeks.

Detailed description

This protocol describes a prospective, randomized, open-label, multicenter study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of switching from fixed dose ABC/3TC to fixed dose FTC/TDF in virologically suppressed, HIV-1 infected subjects maintained on a PI/r-containing ARV regimen. Subjects were stratified based on the PI/r (ie, lopinavir/ritonavir \[LPV/r\] versus other boosted PIs) in their regimen, and the presence versus absence of comorbidities at screening (diabetes mellitus or cardiovascular disease such as hypertension, coronary artery disease, hyperlipidemia, history of myocardial infarction, cardiomyopathy, valvular heart disease, congenital heart disease, stroke, peripheral vascular disease, or arrhythmias). Subjects were randomized 1:1 to switch to FTC/TDF+PI/r or to continue on their existing regimen. Subjects received study treatment for 48 weeks.

Percentage of Participants With HIV-1 Ribonucleic Acid (RNA) < 200 Copies/mL Through Week 48 Based on Time to Loss of Virologic Response (TLOVR) Algorithm

The percentage of participants with HIV-1 RNA \< 200 copies/mL based on TLOVR algorithm at Week 48 was summarized. Participants were considered nonresponders in the TLOVR analysis if they experienced virologic rebound prior to or at Week 48, discontinued study before Week 48, or added a new antiretroviral (ARV) agent prior to completion of the study. Virologic rebound was defined as 2 consecutive HIV-1 RNA values \>= 200 copies/mL or the last HIV-1 RNA value \>= 200 copies/mL followed by discontinuation from the study.
