Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
- Male or female, age 12 years and above
- Body weight at least 40kg
- Taking a tenofovir plus lamivudine/emtricitabine plus NNRTI-based regimen continuously for a total period of at least 6 months
- Good adherence to ART, defined as missing medication on no more than 3 days in the one month prior to screening. [Patients who do not have good adherence should be given adherence counselling and re-assessed after an interval of not less than 4 weeks].
- HIV treatment failure defined by virological criteria (modified from WHO 2016 criteria); Viral load ≥ 1000 copies/ml at screening AND EITHER Viral load ≥ 1000 copies/ml on the previous test, taken after at least 6 months on ART, and at no more than 6 months prior to screening and at no less than 4 weeks prior to screening, with adherence counselling given after the previous test OR Viral load ≥ 1000 copies/ml on a confirmatory test taken no less than 4 weeks after screening with adherence counselling given after the screening test
- If a woman of childbearing potential, must be willing to use effective contraception. [Childbearing potential is defined as being not premenarchal; not post-menopausal (> 12 months of spontaneous amenorrhea and ≥45 years of age); and not permanently sterilised].
- Willing and able to provide written informed consent
- Able to attend regular study follow-up visits
Exclusion Criteria:
- Prior use of protease inhibitor or integrase inhibitor therapy
- Requirement for concomitant medication with known major interactions with study drugs for which drug substitutions or dose alterations are not available or acceptable (if the patient requires rifamycin-based TB treatment, rifabutin must be available at the site).
- Women who are currently pregnant or breastfeeding.
- Severe hepatic impairment (with ascites and/or encephalopathy)
- ALT > 5 times upper limit of normal
- Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) < 50 ml/min/1.73m2 at screening calculated using the CKD-EPI equation
- Current participation in another clinical trial or research protocol (may be permitted in some circumstances; but must first be discussed with the NADIA Chief Investigator)
- Life expectancy of less than one month in the opinion of the treating physician
