Brief Summary

To assess the non-inferiority of doravirine (DOR) in association with tenofovir (TDF) and lamivudine (3TC), compared to dolutegravir (DTG) in association with tenofovir (TDF) and lamivudine (3TC) or emtricitabine (FTC), in terms of virologic efficacy at week 48, measured by the proportion of subjects achieving HIV 1 RNA <50 copies/mL, in HIV-1 infected, treatment-naive subjects with pre-treatment viral load (HIV-1 RNA) ≥ 1,000 copies/mL.

Detailed Description

Phase III, multicenter, open-label, randomized, non-inferiority clinical trial which aims to assess the non-inferiority of doravirine in association with tenofovir and lamivudine, as compared to dolutegravir in association with tenofovir and lamivudine or emtricitabine.

This trial will be implemented in Brazil, Cameroon, Côte d'Ivoire, France, Mozambique and Thailand.

Six hundred and ten patients will be enrolled and followed for 96 weeks after entry in the trial (=ART initiation).

Primary endpoint will assess virological efficacy at Week 48, measured by the proportion of subjects achieving HIV-1 RNA \<50 copies/mL, in HIV-1 infected, treatment-naive subjects with pre-treatment viral load (HIV-1 RNA) ≥ 1,000 copies/mL.

Secondary endpoints are planned at W48 and W96.
