  • Patients on protease inhibitor monotherapy will be included if they meet other criteria.
  • Patients on nevirapine- or dolutegravir regimens, without concomitant boosted PIs, should not be included. Additionally, patients on Elvitegravir which is administered in combination with cobicistat (as Stribild) should not be recruited.
