- Subject is receiving a once-daily regimen of ATV (300mg) + RTV (100mg) + TDF/FTC (300mg/200mg) for at least 6 months prior to or by the first day of screening. ATV + RTV + TDF/FTC must be the subejct's INITIAL regimen or FIRST or SECOND SWITCH regimen. If ATV + RTV + TDF/FTC is subject's first or second switch regimen, then subject may ONLY have received the following prior regimens: a) any currently licensed non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI) + TDF/FTC or ZDV/3TC; b) RTV-boosted PI with TDF/FTC or ZDV/3TC; or c) an alternative regimen not listed above after approval by Sponsor.
- Subject is virologically suppressed on ATV + RTV + TDF/FTC defined as HIV-1 RNA </=75 copies/mL at 2 consecutive timepoints, one of which is at Screening and the other at least 28 days prior to Screening
Exclusion Criteria:
- Subject has evidence of virologic failure
- Subject has any known HIV genotyping results indicating HIV virus contains any of the following resistance mutations in reverse transcriptase including K65R, K70E, L74V, M184I/V or Y115F, a combination of two or more thymidine analog mutations including M41L, D67N, K70R, K219Q or E that include changes at either L210 or T215), or 3 or more of the following HIV-1 protease mutations associated with atazanavir resistance: D30, V32, M36, M46, I47, G48, I50, I54, A71, G73, V77, V82, I84, N88, and L90

- Subject has hypersensitivity to any component of the study drugs
- SUbject is pregnant or breastfeeding
- Subject is enrolled in one or more investigational drug protocols within 30 days of screening
- Subject has an active Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Category C disease, except cutaneous Kaposi's sarcoma not requiring systemic therapy during the trial
- Subject has ongoing clinically relevant hepatitis at screening and/or positive for Hepatitis B (+ HbsAg)
- Subject has a creatinine clearance <50 mL/min via the Cockcroft-Gault method
- Subject has a verified Grade 4 laboratory abnormality at screening unless the Investigator can provide a compelling explanation (e.g. elevated CPK due to exercise) for the laboratory result(s) and has the assent of the Sponsor
- Subject has any other laboratory abnormality or medical condition at screening, which, in the opinion of the investigator, would preclude the subject's participation in the study
- Subject has had an immunization within 30 days prior to first dose of investigational product
- Subject has had any exposure to treatment with immunomodulating agents (such as systemic corticosteroids, interleukins, or interferons) or receipt of an HIV-1 immunotherapeutic vaccine within 90 days prior to screening. Subjects using inhaled corticosteroids or short-course systemic corticosteroids (less than or equal to 14 days) are eligible for enrollment.
- Subject has had treatment with radiation therapy or cytotoxic chemotherapeutic agents within 90 days prior to screening, or has an anticipated need for these agents within the study period
- Subject has had treatment within 30 days prior to first dose of investigational product for or an anticipated need during the study of any medications which can have interactions with the study medications, TDF, FTC, ABC, 3TC, ATV and/or RTV, as described in current product labelling
- Subject has had treatment with any previous abacavir-containing regimen

Arms of the Study
Arm 1
Arm 2
Experimental
Active Comparator
ATV + ABC/3TC
ATV + RTV + TDF/FTC
Subjects will change to ATV 400mg administered as two 200mg capsules orally, once daily and to the fixed-dose combination tablet of ABC 600mg/3TC 300mg (EPZICOM) administered as one tablet orally, once daily for 48 weeks. The subject's pre-study RTV will be discontinued.
Subjects will continue their pre-study therapy, un-modified, of ATV 300mg administered as one capsule orally, once daily plus RTV 100mg administered orally, once daily plus fixed dose combination tablet tenofovir 300mg/emtricitabine 200mg administered as one tablet orally, once daily for 48 weeks.
