2. Has a screening CD4+ T-cell count =200 cells/mm3 (completed by the central laboratory) within 60 days prior to the treatment phase of this study
3. Is naïve to ART
Note: Naïve is defined as having received no (0 days) ART therapy for the treatment of active HIV-1 infection including prevention of mother-to-child transmission
4. Has the following laboratory values (completed by the central laboratory) within 60 days prior to the treatment phase of this study:
a) International normalized ratio =1.2
b) Urine protein is within normal limits (no more than trace protein by urine dipstick)
c) Hemoglobin =9.0 g/dL if female or =10.0 g/dL if male
d) Absolute neutrophil count =1000/mm3
e) Platelet count =100,000/mm3
f) Total serum bilirubin =the upper limit of normal (ULN)
g) Alkaline phosphatase <1.5 × ULN
h) Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) <1.5 × ULN
5. Has a calculated creatinine clearance (Clcr) =50 mL/min within 60 days prior to the treatment phase of this study , based Cockcroft-Gault equations
6. In the opinion of the investigator, the participant should be considered clinically stable, with no signs or symptoms of acute infection, at the time of entry into the study (i.e., clinical status and all chronic medications should be unchanged for at least 2 weeks prior to the start of treatment in this study)
7. Is a male or female at least 18 years of age on the day informed consent is signed
8. A female participant is eligible to participate if she is not pregnant (see Appendix 5 of the protocol), not breastfeeding, and at least one of the following conditions applies:
a.) Not a woman of childbearing potential (WOCBP) as defined in Appendix 5
OR
b.) A WOCBP who agrees to follow the contraceptive guidance in Appendix 5 during the treatment period and for at least 6 weeks (corresponding to time needed to eliminate any study treatments (MK-8591, DOR, or 3TC) or MK-1439A after the last dose of study treatment
9. All participants, male and female, agree to use barrier methods of
contraception when engaged in any sexual activity during treatment and
for 6 weeks following treatment
10. The participant (or legally acceptable representative, if applicable) provides written informed consent for the trial. The participant (or legally acceptable representative, if applicable) may also provide consent for Future Biomedical Research. However, the participant may enroll in the main trial without consenting to Future Biomedical Research

1. Has a history or current evidence of any condition, therapy, laboratory abnormality or other circumstance that might, in the opinion of the investigator, confound the results of the study or interfere with the participant’s participation for the full duration of the study, such that it is not in the best interest of the participant to participate
2. Is, at the time of signing informed consent, a user of recreational or illicit drugs or has had a history of drug or alcohol abuse or dependence that may interfere with trial participation. The nature and potential clinical context of the participant's illicit drug use, in relation to their exclusion from this trial, will be at the discretion of the investigator
