Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Non-inferiority of doravirine in combination with tenofovir and lamivudine as compared to dolutegravir in combination with tenofovir and lamivudine or emtricitabine in terms of virological efficacy at week 48

The non-inferiority will be assessed in terms of virologic efficacy at week 48 under allocated treatment using the FDA snapshot algorithm (window period of 42-54 weeks), and measured by the proportion of subjects achieving a rate of HIV 1 RNA \<50 copies/mL, in HIV-1 infected, treatment-naive subjects with pre-treatment viral load (HIV-1 RNA) ≥ 1,000 copies/mL. The rate of HIV 1 RNA will be measured by RT-PCR.

Time frame
Week 48

Secondary outcomes

1

Occurrence of obesity

Obesity will be defined as having BMI≥30 kg/m² for Caucasian and African population and BMI≥27.5 kg/m² for Asian populations.

Time frame
Week 48; Week 96
2

Occurrence of insulin resistance

Proportion of subjects with newly measured HOMA≥2 as compared to baseline HOMA will be calculated with the following formula (glucose levels in mmol/L, insulin levels in mIU/L): HOMA =(glucose ×insulin)÷22.5

Time frame
Week 48; Week 96
3

Occurrence of hypertension

Proportion of subjects with hypertension newly detected compared to baseline. Hypertension will be defined as either being prescribed new anti-hypertension medication and/or by having diastolic blood pressure \>90 mmHg AND/OR systolic blood pressure \>140 mmHg during visit and confirmed during subsequent visit \> 15 days after.

Time frame
Week 48; Week 96
4

Non-inferiority of DOR in association with TDF and 3TC, compared to DTG in association with TDF and 3TC or FTC, in terms of virologic efficacy

Proportion of subjects in virologic success defined as achieving HIV-1 RNA \<50 copies/mL at week 96 under allocated treatment using the FDA snapshot algorithm with a window period of 90 to 102 weeks; subjects not achieving viral success will be described according to the FDA snapshot recommendation

Time frame
Week 96
