The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of DTG + 3TC versus DTG + TDF/FTC over 48 weeks in HIV-1 naive patients in a real life setting with no baseline HIV genotypic resistance testing available.
This is a 48-week, Phase IV, randomized, open-label, to assess the non-inferior antiviral activity (VL \< 50 c/ml) of 2DR DTG+3TC versus 3DR TDF/FTC + DTG over 48 weeks in HIV1 naïve adult patients without baseline GT available at Day 1 visit. Subjects will be stratified by screening HIV-1 RNA (≤100,000 c/mL or \>100,000 c/mL) and Screening CD4+ cell count (≤ or \>200 cells/mm3). The study will comprise: * a 28-day Screening Phase (which may be extended to 35 days to allow receipt of all Screening assessment results). * an Open-label Randomized Phase (Day 1 to Week 48). Approximately 200 HIV-1 naïve adult patients will be randomized 1:1 to receive 2DR DTG+3TC versus 3DR TDF/FTC + DTG for 48 weeks.
