Detailed Description

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

The target population of this study is HIV-1-infected adults without previous virological failure, currently receiving any first-line, triple-drug ART having an INSTI (EVG/cobi, RAL QD, DTG, BIC) as anchor drug associated to any of the following dual NRTI backbone (ABC/3TC, TDF/FTC or TAF/FTC) with virological suppression (HIV-1 RNA \< 50 copies/mL).

Participants will be randomly allocated 1:1 to switch to DTG/3TC 50/300 mg as a single pill qd until week 96 (Arm A, early switch) or to continue their INSTI-based ART triple regimen received at screening (Arm B, delayed switch) until week 52, when participants in Arm B with HIV-1 RNA\< 50 cp/mL at week 48 will switch to DTG/3TC 50/300 mg qd as a single pill until week 100.

The drugs of both arms will be administered in an open-label manner throughout the entire duration of the study.

The primary analysis will take place after the last participant completes 52 weeks on therapy, to allow for the collection of a confirmatory viral load measurement in participants possibly presenting with HIV-1 RNA ≥50 cp/mL at the Week 48 visit.

If the second determination of HIV-1 RNA is \<50 cp/mL, then the participant has not a virological rebound and will be considered eligible to switch to DTG/3TC at Week 52.

If the second determination of HIV-1 RNA is ≥50 cp/mL, then the participant will be considered protocol-defined virological failure, thus being ineligible to switch to DTG/ 3TC. These participants will be withdrawn from the study.

A preliminary interim analysis will be performed after 50% of the enrolled participants have reached the 24th week of study, always considering 4 weeks more (thus 28 weeks) to allow for the collection of a confirmatory viral load measurement in participants possibly presenting with HIV-1 RNA ≥50 copies/mL at Week 24.

At week 48, participants in Arm A (early switch) will continue DTG/3TC. At week 52, participants in Arm B (delayed switch) and with HIV-1 RNA \< 50 copies/mL at week 48 will switch to DTG/3TC and will be followed until week 100.

The exploratory analyses at Week 96 will take place after the last participant completes 100 weeks on therapy, as needed, to allow for the collection of a confirmatory viral load measurement in participants presenting with HIV-1 RNA ≥50 copies/mL at Week 96.

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* HIV-1 documented infection;
* Aged 18 years or older at the time of signing the informed consent;
* Stable INSTI-based first-line three-drug ART (switch between different NRTIs are allowed; e.g. from TDF/FTC to TAF/FTC or ABC/3TC, from TAF/FTC to TDF/FTC or ABC/3TC, from ABC/3TC to TAF/FTC or TDF/FTC). Any change of INSTI will not be allowed. Only the following regimens will be allowed:

* RAL 1200 mg QD plus TDF/FTC or TAF/FTC;
* RAL 1200 mg QD plus ABC/3TC;
* EVG/COBI/FTC/TDF or EVG/COBI/FTC/TAF;
* DTG plus TDF/FTC or TAF/FTC;
* DTG/ABC/3TC or DTG plus ABC/3TC;
* BIC/TAF/FTC
* Previous INSTI-based first-line ART lasting less than 18 months before screening;
* To have reached a HIV-1 RNA \<50 copies/mL during INSTI first-line therapy for less than 12 months. At least a single HIV-1 RNA determination below the threshold within the 6 months before enrollment is required (if a following determination in present, this should not be ≥50 copies (cp)/mL)
* HIV-1 RNA below 50 copies/mL at the screening visit;
* No known allergy or intolerance to the study drugs or their components or drugs of their class;
