Summary

This study will compare safety, efficacy, and tolerability of a two drug regimen of dolutegravir (DTG) plus (+) lamivudine (3TC) administered once daily with DTG plus two nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (tenofovir disoproxil fumarate \[TDF\]/emtricitabine \[FTC\] fixed dose combination \[FDC\]) administered once daily in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) 1 infected adult participants that have not previously received antiretroviral therapy. The study is designed to demonstrate the non inferior antiviral activity of DTG + 3TC regimen to that of DTG + TDF/FTC FDC and will characterise the long term antiviral activity, tolerability and safety of DTG plus 3TC through Week 148. Approximately, 700 participants will be randomised 1:1 to receive DTG + 3TC or DTG + TDF/FTC FDC. Participants will be stratified by screening HIV 1 ribonucleotide nucleic acid (RNA) levels and by screening CD4+ (cluster of differentiation 4) cell count.

Interventions

DRUG

Dolutegravir (DTG)

DTG is available as 50 mg white, round, biconvex, film coated tablet debossed on one side with 'SV 572' and on the other side with '50'. The tablets are packaged into high density polyethylene (HDPE) bottles with induction seals and child resistant closures. Each 45 ml bottle contains 30 tablets and a desiccant. DTG 50 mg tablet will be orally administered once daily with or without food upto 148 weeks.

DRUG

Lamivudine (3TC)

Lamivudine is available as swedish orange, 'AA' sized elongated double blind HPMC capsules containing 300 mg lamivudine to visually match overencapsulated TDF/FTC FDC tablet. The capsules are packaged into HDPE bottles with induction seals and child resistant closures. Each 150 mL bottle contains 30 capsules and a desiccant. Overencapsulated 3TC 300 mg tablet will be orally administered once daily with or without food upto 96 weeks. From Week 96 to Week 148, lamivudine will be dispensed as 300 mg white, diamond shaped, scored, film coated tablets debossed with 'GX CJ7' on both sides, packed in over labelled HDPE bottles with child-resistant closures each containing 30 tablets.

DRUG

Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate/Emtricitabine (TDF/FTC FDC)

Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate and Emtricitabine are available as swedish orange, 'AA' sized elongated double blind HPMC capsules containing 300 mg TDF and 200 mg FTC to visually match overencapsulated 3TC tablet. The capsules are packaged into HDPE bottles with induction seals and child resistant closures. Each 150 mL bottle contains 30 capsules and a desiccant. Overencapsulated tenofovir disoproxil fumarate/emtricitabine tablet will be orally administered once daily with or without food upto 96 weeks. From Week 96 to Week 148, tenofovir disoproxil fumarate/emtricitabine will be dispensed as 300/200 mg white, blue, capsule shaped, film coated tablets debossed with 'GILEAD' on one side and '701' on another side, packed in overlabelled HDPE bottles with polypropylene childresistant closures each containing 30 tablets and a desiccant.
