Following the End of Blinded Treatment Visit, participants will be given the option to receive open-label (OL) B/F/TAF for 96 weeks. After the Week 96 OL Visit, participants in a country where B/F/TAF is not commercially available will be given the option to continue OL B/F/TAF until the product becomes accessible through an access program or until Gilead elects to discontinue the study in that country, whichever occurs first. Receives: Drug: B/F/TAF |

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Percentage of Participants Who Achieved HIV-1 RNA < 50 Copies/mL at Week 48 as Defined by the US FDA-Defined Snapshot Algorithm
The percentage of participants achieving HIV-1 RNA < 50 copies/mL at Week 48 was analyzed using the snapshot algorithm, which defines a participant's virologic response status using only the viral load at the predefined time point within an allowed window of time, along with study drug discontinuation status.
Measured: Week 48

Percentage of Participants Who Achieved HIV-1 RNA < 50 Copies/mL at Week 48 Open-Label as Defined by Missing = Excluded Algorithm
The percentage of participants with HIV-1 RNA < 50 copies/mL was analyzed using Missing = Excluded for imputing missing HIV-1 RNA values using the All B/F/TAF Analysis Set. All missing data was excluded in the computation of the percentages (ie, missing data points were excluded from both the numerator and denominator in the computation). The denominator for percentages at a visit was the number of participants in the all B/F/TAF analysis set with non-missing HIV-1 RNA value at that visit.
Measured: Baseline, open-label Week 48
Percentage of Participants Who Achieved HIV-1 RNA < 50 Copies/mL at Week 48 Open-Label as Defined by Missing = Failure Algorithm
The percentage of participants with HIV-1 RNA < 50 copies/mL was analyzed using Missing = Failure for imputing missing HIV-1 RNA values using the All B/F/TAF Analysis Set. All missing data was treated as HIV-1 RNA ≥ 50 copies/mL. The denominator for percentages was the number of participants in all B/F/TAF analysis set.
Measured: Baseline, open-label Week 48
Percentage of Participants Who Achieved HIV-1 RNA < 50 Copies/mL at Week 96 Open-Label as Defined by Missing = Excluded Algorithm

All missing data was excluded in the computation of the percentages (ie, missing data points were excluded from both the numerator and denominator in the computation).

Clinical summary
The research question as the sponsor registered it. This describes what the study plans to test, not what it found.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of a fixed dose combination (FDC) containing bictegravir/emtricitabine/tenofovir alafenamide (B/F/TAF) versus a FDC containing abacavir/dolutegravir/lamivudine (ABC/DTG/3TC) in HIV-1 infected, antiretroviral treatment naive-adults.

After the Week 96 OL Visit, participants in a country where B/F/TAF is not commercially available will be given the option to continue OL B/F/TAF until the product becomes accessible through an access program or until Gilead elects to discontinue the study in that country, whichever occurs first. |

Primary outcome
Percentage of Participants Who Achieved HIV-1 RNA < 50 Copies/mL at Week 48 as Defined by the US FDA-Defined Snapshot Algorithm
Time frame: Week 48
The percentage of participants achieving HIV-1 RNA < 50 copies/mL at Week 48 was analyzed using the snapshot algorithm, which defines a participant's virologic response status using only the viral load at the predefined time point within an allowed window of time, along with study drug discontinuation status.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 3 study testing ABC/DTG/3TC and B/F/TAF in people with HIV-1 Infection, run by Gilead Sciences at 121 sites in 10 countries.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 7 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 2 Mar 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 121 sites in United States, Spain, Canada, United Kingdom, France and 5 more countries. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
What does this phase mean?
Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 23 Jul 2018). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Percentage of Participants Who Achieved HIV-1 RNA < 50 Copies/mL at Week 48 as Defined by the US FDA-Defined Snapshot Algorithm (time frame: Week 48). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02607930, which also lists 24 linked publications.
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 2 Mar 2022.
