Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
The study visits will include: general clinical assessment, routine laboratory tests including: creatinine, phosphorus, calcium, alkaline phosphatase, AST, ALT, fasting glucose, total cholesterol, HDL- and LDL-cholesterol, triglycerides, CD4+ cell count and CD4+/CD8+ ratio.
Additional 30 mL of peripheral blood will be withdrawn at study visits for further virological, and immunological investigations and for bio-banking purposes.
During follow-up, the occurrence of two consecutive HIV-1 RNA values \>50 copies/mL or the occurrence of stage B or C AIDS-defining events or any serious non-AIDS clinical event at least potentially related to treatment interruption will be criteria for ART resumption.
All patients with HIV-RNA\<50 copies/mL at week 48 (end of the study) will resume their baseline ART regimen.
The main demographic, clinical and therapy information will be accurately recorded at the study visits in an electronic Case Report Form.

Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Prospective, open-label, single arm, non-randomized, proof-of-concept study.
Eligible patients will sign a written informed consent and will be followed-up at screening, baseline (ART interruption) and at 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48 weeks thereafter or at ART resumption.
The clinical assessment (study visit) will include: the evaluation of CDC stage, height, weight, systolic and diastolic blood pressure and smoking status, routine laboratory tests \[including creatinine, phosphorus, calcium, alkaline phosphatase, AST, ALT, fasting glucose, total cholesterol, HDL- and LDL-cholesterol, triglycerides, CD4+ cell count and CD4+/CD8+ ratio, urine analysis\].
Additional 30 mL of peripheral blood will be withdrawn at study visits and stored in a biobank for further investigations.
During follow-up, the occurrence of two consecutive HIV-1 RNA values \>50 copies/mL or the occurrence of stage B or C AIDS-defining events will be criteria for ART resumption or any serious non-AIDS clinical event at least potentially related to treatment interruption.
All patients with HIV-RNA\<50 copies/mL at week 48 (end of the study) will resume their baseline ART regimen.
The main demographic, clinical and therapy information will be accurately recorded at the study visits in an electronic Case Report Form (eCRF).

Study Groups

Interruption of antiretroviral therapy
Patients willing to stop antiretroviral therapy will stop ART.The occurrence of two consecutive HIV-1 RNA values \>50 copies/mL or the occurrence of stage B or C AIDS-defining events will be criteria for ART resumption or any serious non-AIDS clinical event at least potentially related to treatment interruption.
Stop of ART
Patients willing to stop antiretroviral therapy will stop ART.The occurrence of two consecutive HIV-1 RNA values \>50 copies/mL or the occurrence of stage B or C AIDS-defining events will be criteria for ART resumption or any serious non-AIDS clinical event at least potentially related to treatment interruption.
