Brief summary

The main objective of this study is to evaluate at 96 weeks the safety with respect to hepatitis B control of 2 treatment reduction strategies for patients with previously controlled HIV-HBV co-infection on continuous triple therapy

Interventions

DRUGTDF - 245mg or TAF -25mg associated to 3TC - 300mg or FTC - 200mg and a NNRTI or PI/r or INSTI

The study will include patients under current daily antiretroviral tritherapy not modified for ≥ 12 months must including tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) 245mg or tenofovir alafenamide fumarate (TAF -25mg) associated to lamivudine (3TC - 300mg) or emtricitabine (FTC - 200mg) and a NNRTI or PI/r or INSTI to choose from * NNRTI = efavirenz, rilpivirine, etravirine, doravirine * PI/r = atazanavir/r ou darunavir/r * INSTI = bictegravir, dolutegravir, elvitegravir/cobicistat, raltegravir

DRUGDual therapy with 3TC in combination with DTG or ritonavir-boosted Darunavir (rDVR)

dual therapy without TDF or TAF but including 3TC in combination with Dolutegravir (DTG) or ritonavir-boosted Darunavir (rDVR

Intervention model description

Interventional, sequential, Phase IIA equivalent, multicenter, open-label, randomized, non-comparative study evaluating, for 96 weeks, the safety in terms of HBV virological control of 2 antiviral therapy relief strategies, in HIV-1 and HBV co-infected patients with prolonged virological success (undetectable HIV-1 and HBV viral loads for ≥ 2 years) and on unmodified antiviral therapy for ≥ 1 year. Participants will be randomized 1:2:2 into 3 parallel arms: * Arm 1 (reference arm): Continuation of continuous (7 days/week) triple antiviral therapy including TDF or TAF * Arm 2 (T4): Relief from previous triple antiviral therapy (containing TDF or TAF) on 4 out of 7 consecutive days * Arm 3 (B7): Switch from prior triple antiviral therapy (containing TDF or TAF) to continuous dual therapy without TDF or TAF but including 3TC in combination with Dolutegravir (DTG) or ritonavir-boosted Darunavir (rDVR). The choice of dual therapy is left to the discretion of the investigator.
