Brief summary
The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of a novel combination antiretroviral therapy regimen consisting of maraviroc plus darunavir/ritonavir in treatment-naive patients infected with R5-tropic HIV-1. The hypothesis is that in treatment-naive subjects infected with R5-tropic HIV-1, combination antiretroviral therapy with maraviroc plus darunavir/ritonavir is well tolerated and efficacious.

Eligibility
Inclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria
* Serious illness requiring systemic treatment and/or hospitalization until candidate either completes therapy or is clinically stable on therapy, in the opinion of the site investigator, for at least 7 days prior to study entry * Screening HIV genotype obtained any time prior to study entry with any DRV RAM (V11I, V32I, L33F, I47V, I50V, I54L, I54M, T74P, L76V, I84V, and L89V) * Treatment within 30 days prior to study entry with immune modulators such as systemic steroids, interleukins, interferons, granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF), erythropoietin, or any investigational therapy. NOTE: Subjects receiving stable physiologic glucocorticoid doses (defined as prednisone ≤10 mg/day \[or equivalent\] as a stable or tapering dose) are permitted. Subjects receiving corticosteroids for acute therapy for PCP or asthma exacerbation, or receiving a short course (defined as ≤2 weeks of pharmacologic glucocorticoid therapy) are permitted * Breast-feeding * Requirement for any medication that is prohibited with a study medication * Known allergy/sensitivity to study drugs or their formulations. A history of sulfa allergy is not an exclusion * Active drug or alcohol use or dependence that could interfere with adherence to study requirements
