About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Hiv focused on measuring HIV, antiretroviral therapy, antiretroviral therapy adverse events, weight gain, body composition, fat distribution

Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - undefined (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Individuals ≥ 18 years old with diagnosed HIV and at least 6 months of ongoing treatment with dolutegravir/ doravirin/lamivudine will be included. Patients must have a plasma viral load (HIV-RNA) < 50 copies/ml at inclusion. For women of childbearing potential: Negative pregnancy test and willingness to use contraceptive (consistent with local regulations) during study period

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Patients will be excluded in case of pre-existing viral resistance mutations to lamivudine, dolutegravir, tenofovir or doravirine the presence of hepatitis B antigen (HBsAg) or HBV DNA, cancer within past 5 years, pregnancy or breastfeeding. Any case of diabetes, cardiovascular disease or other chronic illness must be considered stable as assessed by the treating physician.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
Randomized controlled parallel open-label study in persons living with HIV. The aim is to study weight changes in patients switching from a dolutegravir and tenofovir disoproxil containing regimen to either a dolutegravir or tenofovir disoproxil free regimen.
Detailed Description
Randomized controlled parallel open-label study in persons living with HIV and at least 6 month of treatment with dolutegravir/abacavir/lamivudine prior to inclusion. Participants (n=126) are randomized to continue 3 drug-regimen dolutegravir/tenofovir disoproxil/lamivudine (control) or switch to two-drug regimen with dolutegravir/lamivudine (intervention 1) or to three-drug regimen with doravirine/tenofovir disoproxil/lamivudine. Follow-up is 48 weeks. Data is collected at baseline and week 48. Primary outcome is changes in weight from baseline of more than 2 kg. Secondary outcomes are virus persistent viral suppression, changes in body composition and metabolism, changes in bone metabolisme and renal function, changes in liver elasticity and fat infiltration.
