Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| 1. CD4 + count (Result of the CD4 + T cell count, expressed in cells / µL and %). Measurement time: At baseline, week 20 and 40 (final evaluation). 2. Clinical response (It will be recorded by the yes / no dichotomous response, taking into account the appearance or not of new opportunistic diseases during the 40 weeks after the start of treatment). Measurement time: Week 40 (final evaluation). | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| 1. Virological response (It will be evaluated according to the non-increase of the viral load (given in cp/ml) in at least one decimal logarithm or decrease thereof, in the course of the treatment.) Measurement time: At baseline, week 20 and 40 (final evaluation). 2. Quality of Life (It will be evaluated through the Spanish version of the MOS-HIV questionnaire (for its acronym in English Medical Outcomes Study-Human Immunodeficiency Virus), validated in the Cuban population in the IPK. Measurement time: At baseline, week 20 and 40 (final evaluation). 3. Adverse Events-AE (Occurrence of an AE (Yes, No), Description of the AE(Name of the adverse event), According to the available previous information (Unexpected, Expected), Duration of the AE (Difference of time between the start and the termination of the AE), intensity of the AE (mild, moderate, severe), severity of the AE (serious and not serious), attitude towards the treatment under study (no changes, dose modification, temporary interruption, definitive interruption of treatment), result of AE (Recovered, Improved, Persists, Sequelae), Causality relation (1. Very likely, 2. Probable, 3. Possible, 4. Not likely, 5. Not related, 6. Not evaluable)). Measurement time: weekly until week 40. | — |
