PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 48 weeks

Population: Per the protocol, participants who have to discontinue study drug early but have been on study drug for at least 12 weeks will undergo a final evaluation at the time they discontinue. One participant in the Switch ART arm discontinued the study early at 36 weeks, and data was collected for this participant at 36 weeks--this 36-week data is included in the analysis of the 48 week timepoint.

Timeframe: Baseline

The controlled attenuation parameter (CAP) indicates quantity of fat in the liver (that is, hepatic fat content). CAP is assessed by performing transient elastography (TE) using a FibroScan device, which uses ultrasound. The CAP score is measured in decibels per meter (dB/m). CAP score ranges from 100 dB/m to 400 dB/m, and a higher score indicates greater hepatic fat content.

The Homeostatic Assessment Model of Insulin Resistance (HOMA-IR) is an index used to determine if insulin resistance is present. HOMA-IR is calculated as (\[(fasting insulin in mU/L) x (glucose in mmol/L)\]/22.5). Higher HOMA-IR values indicate greater insulin resistance. The threshold HOMA-IR value that indicates insulin resistance differs among different populations, but a common clinical cutoff is 2.6 (in other words, a HOMA-IR value of 2.6 or above is commonly interpreted to indicate insulin resistance).
