Overview
The goal of this clinical study is to learn about the safety and efficacy of switching to once weekly tablet of islatravir/lenacapavir (ISL/LEN) regimen versus continuing standard treatment of bictegravir/emtricitabine/tenofovir alafenamide (B/F/TAF) in people with human immunodeficiency virus (PWH) who are virologically suppressed (HIV-1 RNA levels \< 50 copies/mL) on B/F/TAF for ≥ 6 months prior to screening.
The primary objective is to evaluate the efficacy of switching to oral weekly ISL/LEN tablet regimen versus continuing B/F/TAF in virologically suppressed PWH at Week 48.
Who can participate
Key Inclusion Criteria:
* HIV-1 RNA \< 50 copies/mL for ≥ 6 months before screening, as documented by:
1. One HIV-1 RNA \< 50 copies/mL immediately preceding the 24 week period prior to screening.
2. Within 24 weeks prior to screening, if HIV-1 RNA results are available, all levels must be \< 50 copies/mL.
3. During the 6 to 12 months period prior to screening, transient detectable viremia ≥ 50 copies/mL is acceptable ("blip"), as long as it is not confirmed on 2 consecutive visits.
* Plasma HIV-1 RNA levels \< 50 copies/mL at screening.
* Individuals are receiving B/F/TAF for ≥ 6 months prior to screening and willing to continue until Day 1.
* Individuals assigned female at birth and of childbearing potential who engage in heterosexual intercourse must agree to use protocol-specified methods of contraception.
Key Exclusion Criteria:
* Prior virologic failure.
* Prior use of, or exposure to ISL or LEN.
* Active, serious infections requiring parenteral therapy within 30 days before randomization.
* Active tuberculosis infection.
* Acute hepatitis within 30 days before randomization.
* Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection as determined below at the screening visit:
1. Positive HBV surface antigen OR
2. Positive HBV core antibody and negative HBV surface antibody. Note: individuals found to be susceptible to HBV infection (eg negative hepatitis B surface antibody at the screening visit, regardless of prior HBV vaccination history) should be recommended to receive HBV vaccination.
* Active hepatitis C virus (HCV) coinfection, defined as detectable HCV RNA. Note: individuals with prior/inactive HCV infection (defined as undetectable HCV RNA) may be enrolled.
* Any of the following laboratory values at screening:
1. Creatinine clearance (CLcr) ≤ 30 mL/min according to the Cockcroft-Gault formula
2. Alanine aminotransferase \> 5 x upper limit of normal (ULN)
3. Direct bilirubin \> 1.5 x ULN
4. Platelets \< 50,000/μL
5. Hemoglobin \< 8.0 g/dL
Note: Other protocol defined Inclusion/Exclusion criteria may apply.
