1. be a male or female at least 18 years of age on the day of signing the informed consent.
2. understand the study procedures, be able to compile with the study procedures, and voluntarily agree to participate by giving written informed consent for the trial. The subject may also provide consent for Future Biomedical Research. However, the subject may participate in the main trial without participating in Future Biomedical Research.
Note: A subjects understanding of the procedures for this study includes having the ability to complete the electronic study medication diary.
3. be HIV-1 positive as determined by a positive result by enzyme-immunoassay and have screening plasma HIV-1 RNA (determined by the central laboratory) > or = to 1000 copies/mL within 45 days prior to the treatment phase of this study, and is indicated for treatment based on physician assessment. Local treatment guidelines should be considered in the decision to initiate therapy.
4. be naïve to antiretroviral therapy (ART) including investigational antiretroviral agents.
Note: Naïve is defined as having received no (0 days) ART therapy for the treatment of HIV infection.
5. have the following screening laboratory values:
-Serum creatinine < or = to 2.0 x upper limit of normal
-Alkaline phosphatase < or = to 3.0 x upper limit of normal
-AST (SGOT) and ALT (SGPT) < or = to 5.0 x upper limit of normal
Note: A single repeat of a laboratory screening test will be allowed for test results that are unexpected based on documented prior laboratory results but the repeat test results must be available within the 45 day screening window.
6. has a calculated creatinine clearance > or = to 30 mL/min at time of screening, based on the following Cockcroft-Gault equations:
Male:
Clcr (mL/min) = (140-age) x weight (in kg)
72 x serum creatinine (mg/dL)
Female:
Clcr (mL/min) = (140-age) x weight (in kg) x 0.85
72 x serum creatinine (mg/dL)
7. in the opinion of the investigator, be considered clinically stable with no signs or symptoms of active 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).
8. agree to one of the following if of reproductive potential :
True abstinence: Abstinence is in line with the preferred and usual lifestyle of the subject. [Periodic abstinence (e.g., abstinence only on certain calendar days, abstinence only during ovulation period, use of symptothermal method, use of post-ovulation methods) and withdrawal are not acceptable methods of contraception].
Use of an acceptable method of birth control throughout the study (either by subject or subjects partner). Acceptable methods of birth control are: oral contraceptives, intrauterine device (IUD), diaphragm with spermicide, contraceptive sponge, condom, vasectomy (All forms of hormonal contraception are acceptable).
Note: Subject who is not of reproductive potential1; is not sexually active, whose current partner(s) is/are not of reproductive potential, or whose sexual activity is exclusively homosexual is eligible without requiring the use of contraception. However, use of barrier methods of contraception is strongly encouraged to reduce the risk of HIV-1 transmission during sexual contact.
