Summary

Single-arm, multi-center, Phase I/II clinical trial, in two groups. Individuals with HIV infection taking Efavirenz (EFV), nevirapine (NVP) or lopinavir/ritonavir (LPV/r) and two nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTI) who have undetectable HIV viral load (VL) (\< 50 copies/mL) and an indication for tuberculosis (TB) preventive treatment (TPT), will be switched to dolutegravir (DTG) with tenofovir/emtricitabine (TDF/FTC), tenofovir/lamivudine (TDF/3TC), abacavir/lamivudine (ABC/3TC) or zidovudine/lamivudine (AZT/3TC) in accordance with South African National HIV Guidelines. Groups 1 and 2 will receive weekly HP for 12 total doses starting 4 weeks after initiating DTG. Individuals who are on an existing DTG-based plus two NRTI antiretroviral therapy (ART) regimen for at least four weeks (and have not received efavirenz, or nevirapine or lopinavir/ritonavir for at least four weeks) who have an undetectable HIV viral load may also participate.

Conditions

Interventions

DRUG

Dolutegravir

Groups 1a/1b: Participants will take the FDA-approved weight-based DTG once daily + either TDF/FTC, TDF/3TC, ABC/3TC or AZT/3TC x 4 weeks. During HP treatment and for two weeks afterward, DTG dose will be increased to twice daily. Participants will continue with the NRTI regimen they have previously tolerated, except where their age and weight allow them to transition from either AZT or ABC to TDF, as per South African National ART Guidelines. HLA-B\*5701 screening will therefore not be performed, as children will be currently taking and tolerating an ABC-containing regimen at enrolment. If any clinically suspected hypersensitivity reaction to ABC is suspected by history, ABC will not be continued. Groups 2a/2b: Participants will take weight-based DTG dosing twice or once daily, depending on the results of the modelled data for the Group 1a (for Group 2a) and/or Group 1b (for Group 2b) participants in the interim analysis.
