Eligibility

  • At the time of obtaining informed consent, adolescent and adult participants weighing at least 35 kg.
  • Participants must have a nonreactive HIV test at Screening (rapid test, nonrapid HIV immunoassay, and HIV RNA) and enrollment (a rapid test, nonrapid HIV immunoassay, and HIV RNA).

  • Male or female at birth, (transgender individuals are not excluded). Contraceptive use should align with local regulations. Participants assigned female at birth must not be pregnant or breastfeeding and must either not be of childbearing potential (POCBP) or use highly effective contraception. A POCBP must have a negative pregnancy test within 30 days before dosing.
  • Participants must be >=16 years old, of legal age to consent to sexual intercourse, and capable of giving written informed consent. Adolescents must provide written informed assent/consent and/or obtain parental/guardian consent if not of legal age, as per site SOPs and IRB/EC policies.

    • Evidence of active Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection.
      • Participants positive for HBsAg or HBV DNA are excluded.
      • Participants negative for anti-HBs but positive for anti-HBc (negative HBsAg status) and positive for HBV DNA are excluded.
    • Unstable liver disease, known biliary abnormalities (with the exception of Gilbert's syndrome or asymptomatic gallstones).
    • History of clinically relevant hepatitis within last 6 months.
    • Known history of liver cirrhosis with or without viral hepatitis co-infection.
    • Participants with Hepatitis C virus (HCV) co-infection will be allowed entry into this study if:
      • Liver enzymes meet entry criteria.
      • HCV Disease has undergone appropriate work-up, and is not advanced, and will not require treatment prior to the primary endpoint (e.g., Month 13).
      • In the event that recent biopsy or imaging data is not available or inconclusive, the Fibrosis 4 (Fib-4) score will be used to verify eligibility:
        • Fib-4 score greater than (>) 3.25 is exclusionary.
        • Fib-4 scores 1.45 – 3.25 requires Medical Monitor consultation.
    • Creatinine clearance of <30 mL/min/1.73 m2 via CKD-EPIcr_R (2021) method.
    • Any acute laboratory abnormality at Screening, which, in the opinion of the investigator, would preclude the participant's participation in the study of an investigational compound.
    • Any verified Grade 4 laboratory abnormality, with the exception of Grade 4 [triglycerides or lipid abnormalities].
    • Participants determined by the Investigator to have a high risk of seizures, A participant with a prior history of seizure may be considered for enrolment if the Investigator believes the risk of seizure recurrence is low. All cases of prior seizure history should be discussed with the Medical Monitor prior to enrolment.
    • Participant is currently participating in or has participated in a study with a compound or device that is not commercially available within 30 days of signing informed consent, unless permission from the Medical Monitor is granted.
    • Presence of any history of allergy/sensitivity to any of the study drug.

Eligibility

  • Aged ≥12 years and ≥ 35 kg
  • Type of Participant and Disease Characteristics 
    • HIV-1 infection, documented by any licensed rapid HIV test or HIV enzyme or chemiluminescence immunoassay (E/CIA) test kit at any time prior to study entry and confirmed by a licensed Western blot or a second antibody test by a method other than the initial rapid HIV and/or E/CIA, or by HIV-1 antigen, plasma HIV-1 RNA VL
    • Plasma HIV-1 RNA >1 000 c/mL and <100 000 c/mL at Screening
    • Evidence of insufficient virologic response to participant's current oral ART regimen within 18 months prior to study entry according to at least 1 of the following criteria
      • <1 log10 decrease in HIV-1 RNA or HIV-1 RNA >200 c/mL at 2 time points at least 4 weeks apart in individuals who have been prescribed oral ART for at least 3 consecutive months
      • Documented lapse in current oral ART regimen usage expected to result in HIV-1 viremia (defined as at least a 30-day consecutive period of non-use of oral ART)
      • Documented need for change from oral ART regimen that investigator attributes as primary reason for insufficient virologic response (e.g., safety findings and/or limited tolerability, clinically relevant DDIs)
    • Currently being treated with an oral ART regimen containing a second generation INSTI and/or boosted protease inhibitor or, has agreed with their HCP to switch to such a regimen as part of their SOC treatment, and will be able to do so no later than Day 1 if randomized to the control arm – specific regimen to be recorded at Screening
  • Pregnancy, Sex and Contraceptive/Barrier Requirements
    • POCBP must have a negative serum or urine pregnancy test at screening and on Day 1 (Refer to Section 10.4 for definition for POCBP)
  • Exclusion Criteria

    • Individuals with both HIV and HBV will be excluded from participating in studies where they would not be able to receive appropriate therapy (e.g., tenofovir, lamivudine, or entecavir) for their HBV co-infection and therefore may be at risk of hepatitis B flare. Exclusion will be determined by evidence of HBV infection based on the results of testing at Screening for HBsAg, HBcAb, HBsAb and HBV DNA as follows:
      • Participants positive for HBsAg are excluded
      • Participants negative for HBsAb and negative for HBsAg but positive for HBcAb may be excluded based on the following consideration:
        • Exclude if HBV DNA is detected [either < LLoQ, > ULoQ OR numerical value (i.e., between LLoQ and ULoQ)]
        • Not excluded if HBV DNA is negative, not detected
      • History of liver cirrhosis with or without hepatitis viral co-infection
      • Participants with severe hepatic impairment (Class C) as determined by Child-Pugh classification
      • Participants with HCV co-infection will be excluded entry into this study if they are currently receiving anti-HCV therapy at baseline (Day 1)
      • Participants determined by the investigator to have a high risk of seizures, including participants with an unstable or poorly controlled seizure disorder
      • History of sensitivity to any of the study medications or their components or drugs of their class, or a history of drug or other allergy that, in the opinion of the investigator or Medical Monitor, contraindicates their participation
      • Participants who in the investigator’s judgment, pose a significant suicidality risk. Participant’s history of suicidal behavior and/or suicidal ideation should be considered when evaluating for suicide risk
      • Any pre-existing physical or mental condition which, in the opinion of the Investigator, may interfere with the participant’s ability to comply with the dosing schedule and/or protocol evaluations or which may compromise the safety of the participant
