Overview
Brief Summary
This is an open-label, randomized and multi-center study to compare the efficacy and safety of continued enfuvirtide (Fuzeon) plus (+) OB therapy versus OB alone in participants with HIV-1 infection. Participants will receive an initial 28 week induction treatment with enfuvirtide + OB. After 28 weeks participants with a plasma viral load less than or equal to (</=) 400 copies/milliliter (mL) at Week 16 and less than (<) 50 copies/mL at Week 24 will be randomized in the ratio 1:1 to receive either enfuvirtide + OB or OB alone for another 24 weeks (up to Week 52).

Arms & Interventions
Enfuvirtide + OB (Not Randomized)
Participants will receive enfuvirtide 90 milligram (mg) twice daily (b.i.d.) and OB as per investigator's discretion for 28 weeks during induction period. After induction period participants not meeting the randomization criteria will receive enfuvirtide 90 mg b.i.d and OB for next 24 weeks (up to Week 52).
Intervention: Enfuvirtide
Enfuvirtide + OB (Not Randomized)
Participants will receive enfuvirtide 90 milligram (mg) twice daily (b.i.d.) and OB as per investigator's discretion for 28 weeks during induction period. After induction period participants not meeting the randomization criteria will receive enfuvirtide 90 mg b.i.d and OB for next 24 weeks (up to Week 52).
Intervention: Optimized background antiretroviral regimen (OB)
Enfuvirtide + OB (Randomized)
Participants will receive enfuvirtide 90 mg b.i.d. and OB as per investigator's discretion for 28 weeks during induction period. After induction period participants meeting the randomization criteria will be randomized to receive enfuvirtide 90 mg b.i.d. and OB for next 24 weeks (up to Week 52).
Intervention: Enfuvirtide
Enfuvirtide + OB (Randomized)
Participants will receive enfuvirtide 90 mg b.i.d. and OB as per investigator's discretion for 28 weeks during induction period. After induction period participants meeting the randomization criteria will be randomized to receive enfuvirtide 90 mg b.i.d. and OB for next 24 weeks (up to Week 52).

Intervention: Enfuvirtide
OB alone (Randomized)
Participants will receive enfuvirtide 90 mg b.i.d. and OB as per investigator's discretion for 28 weeks during induction period. After induction period participants meeting the randomization criteria will be randomized to receive OB alone for next 24 weeks (up to Week 52).
