Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

To evaluate the proportion of patients with virological failure after 48 weeks of treatment with the combination of efavirenz 600 mg + lamivudine (3TC) 300 mg + abacavir 600 mg once daily as an antiretroviral simplification regimen.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Treatment simplification is a therapeutic strategy that allows patients with controlled viral replication to switch to an easier-to-take antiretroviral system to promote long-term adherence and thus maintain controlled viral load for longer, delaying the evolution of the HIV infection.

The combination of ABC+3TC+EFV is a potent and easy-to-take regimen (2 tablets once a day) that could be suitable for the simplification of antiretroviral treatment in patients with controlled viral load with a regimen that includes 2 NRTI taken twice daily.
