1.be at least 18 years of age on the day of signing the informed consent
2.understand the study procedures and voluntarily agree to participate by giving written informed consent (or have a legal representative provide written informed consent, if considered acceptable by local regulatory agencies and/or ERCs/IRBs) for the trial. The subject or his/her legal representative (if considered acceptable by local regulatory agencies and/or ERCs/IRBs) may also provide consent for Future Biomedical Research. However, the subject may participate in the main trial without participating in Future Biomedical Research.
3.be HIV-1 positive as determined by a positive result on an enzyme-immunoassay, have screening plasma HIV-1 RNA (determined by the central laboratory) =1000 copies/mL within 45 days prior to the treatment phase of this study, and have HIV treatment indicated 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.
5.have the following laboratory values at screening within 45 days prior to the treatment phase of this study: a) Alkaline phosphatase =3.0 x upper limit of normal b)AST (SGOT) and ALT (SGPT) =5.0 x upper limit of normal c)Hemoglobin=9.0g/dL (if female) or =10.0g/dL (if male)
6.calculated creatinine clearance at the time of screening = 50 mL/min., based on the Cockcroft-Gault equation
7.clinically stable with no signs or symptoms of active infection at the time of entry into the study.
8.be highly unlikely to become pregnant or to impregnate a partner.
In order to be eligible for participation in study extension 1 at the
Week 96 visit, the subject must:
9. have completed the Week 96 visit.
10. be considered, in the opinion of the investigator, to have derived benefit from study participation through Week 96.
11. be considered, in the opinion of the investigator, a clinically
appropriate candidate for an additional 96 weeks of treatment with MK-1439A following the end of the base study.
12. understand the procedures in study extension 1 and provide
written informed consent to enter the study extension, thus continuing for approximately 2 years beyond the base study.
In order to be eligible to continue receiving study treatment in study extension 2 at the Week 192 visit, the subject must:
13. have completed the Week 192 visit.
14. be considered, in the opinion of the investigator, to have derived benefit from MK-1439A by Week 192 of the study.
15. be considered, in the opinion of the investigator, a clinically appropriate candidate for an additional 2 years (additional 96 weeks) of treatment with MK-1439A.
16. understand the procedures in study extension 2 and have provided written informed consent to enter study extension 2, thus continuing until MK-1439A is commercially available once approved in the local country, or for up to approximately 2 years (whichever comes first) beyond study extension 1.
