Overview
Brief Summary
The primary objectives of this study are to evaluate the antiretroviral activity and the safety/tolerability of open-label doravirine/lamivudine/tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (DOR/3TC/TDF; MK-1439A; DELSTRIGO™) consisting of a single fixed-dose combination (FDC) tablet of DOR/3TC/TDF 100 mg/300 mg/300 mg in treatment-naïve HIV-1 infected participants with select non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI) transmitted resistance-associated mutations.
Detailed Description
This study had a Base Study (Day 1 to Week 96) and an optional Study Extension (Week 96 to Week 192).

Exclusion Criteria
- •Is a user of recreational or illicit drugs or has had a recent history of drug or alcohol abuse or dependence.

- •Has documented or known resistance to study drugs (doravirine, lamivudine, and/or tenofovir)
- •Has participated or anticipates participating in a study with an investigational compound/device within 30 days prior to signing informed consent
- •Has any medical condition requiring, or likely to require, chronic systemic administration of corticosteroids, tumor necrosis factor (TNF) antagonists, or other immunosuppressant drugs during the course of the trial.
- •Requires or anticipates requiring any of the prohibited medications
- •Has significant hypersensitivity or other contraindication to any of the components of the study drug
- •Has a current (active) diagnosis of acute hepatitis due to any cause
- •Has evidence of decompensated liver disease or has liver cirrhosis and a Child-Pugh Class C score or Pugh-Turcotte (CPT) score \> 9

Arms & Interventions
DOR/3TC/TDF
Treatment-naïve HIV-1 infected participants with NNRTI transmitted resistance-associated mutations were treated with open-label MK-1439A (DOR/3TC/TDF 100mg/300mg/300mg) as a FDC tablet taken once daily by mouth for 96 weeks in the Base Study. In addition, eligible participants continued to receive the same MK-1439A regimen from Week 96 to Week 192 during the Extension Study.
Intervention: Doravirine/lamivudine/tenofovir disoproxil fumarate
Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Percentage of Participants Achieving HIV-1 Ribonucleic Acid (RNA) <50 Copies/mL of Plasma at Week 48
Time Frame: Week 48
The percentage of participants achieving HIV-1 ribonucleic acid (RNA) \<50 copies/mL in plasma at Week 48 was calculated. The Abbott RealTime HIV-1 Assay, which has a lower limit of reliable quantification (LoQ) of 40 copies/mL, was used to measure the HIV-1 RNA level in plasma samples obtained at Week 48 visit.
Percentage of Participants Experiencing ≥1 Adverse Events (AE) up to Week 96
Time Frame: Up to Week 96
The percentage of participants experiencing ≥1 AE up to Week 96 was calculated. An AE was defined as any unfavorable and unintended sign, symptom, or disease (new or worsening) temporally associated with the use of study therapy, regardless of whether or not a causal relationship with the study therapy could be determined.
Percentage of Participants Who Discontinued Treatment Due to an AE up to Week 96
Time Frame: Up to Week 96
The percentage of participants who discontinued from study medication due to an adverse event was calculated. An AE was defined as any unfavorable and unintended sign, symptom, or disease (new or worsening) temporally associated with the use of study therapy, regardless of whether or not a causal relationship with the study therapy could be determined.
Percentage of Participants Experiencing ≥1 Adverse Events (AE) up to Week 48
Time Frame: Up to Week 48
The percentage of participants experiencing ≥1 AE up to Week 48 was calculated. An AE was defined as any unfavorable and unintended sign, symptom, or disease (new or worsening) temporally associated with the use of study therapy, regardless of whether or not a causal relationship with the study therapy could be determined.
Percentage of Participants Who Discontinued Treatment Due to an AE up to Week 48.
Time Frame: Up to Week 48
The percentage of participants who discontinued from study medication due to an adverse event was calculated. An AE was defined as any unfavorable and unintended sign, symptom, or disease (new or worsening) temporally associated with the use of study therapy, regardless of whether or not a causal relationship with the study therapy could be determined.
