Participant Flow

Patients were randomly assigned to receive one of two regimens Raltegravir (Isentress, Merck \& Company) 400 mg twice daily with either Lopinavir/ritonavir (Kaletra, Abbott Laboratories) 200 mg/100 mg twice daily or with emtricitabine/tenofovir (Truvada, Gilead Sciences) 200 mg/100 mg twice daily.

Participants with acute or recent HIV-1 infection, major resistance-associated mutation on any genotype performed at any time prior to study entry, serious illness requiring systemic treatment and/or hospitalization within 7 days of study entry, HBsAg positivity, acute hepatitis of any etiology, clinically significant liver disease were excluded
