Title:
A Phase 3, Randomized, Active-Controlled, Double-Blind Clinical Study to Evaluate a Switch to Doravirine/Islatravir (DOR/ISL 100 mg/0.25 mg) Once-Daily in Participants With HIV-1 Who Are Virologically Suppressed on Bictegravir/Emtricitabine/Tenofovir Alafenamide (Biktarvy)
Objective:
The objective of this study is to evaluate the antiviral effectiveness and safety of Doravirine/Islatravir compared to Biktarvy.
Eligibility:
You may be eligible to take part in this study if you are at least 18 years of age with HIV-1 infection, are taking Biktarvy, and have had an undetectable HIV viral load for at least three months.
The study team will discuss other criteria with you.
Description:
People in this study will be placed into 1 of 2 groups:
- Group 1 will get a combination pill of islatravir and doravirine plus a placebo pill which looks like Biktarvy.
- Group 2 will get Biktarvy plus a placebo pill which looks like islatravir/doravirine.
The placebo pills do not have active ingredients.
You have a 2 in 3 chance of being put in Group 1 and a 1 in 3 chance of being put in Group 2. You and the study team will not know which group you are in.
Participants will remain on their assigned treatment for 96 weeks.
