An Efficacy, Safety, and Tolerability Study Comparing Dolutegravir (DTG) Plus Lamivudine (3TC) With Dolutegravir Plus Tenofovir/Emtricitabine in Treatment naïve HIV Infected Participants (Gemini 2)

Percentage of participants with HIV-1 RNA<50 c/mL was obtained using FDA Snapshot algorithm. The Snapshot algorithm treated all participants without HIV-1 RNA data at the visit of interest (due to missing data or discontinuation of investigational product prior to the visit window) as non-responders, as well as participants who switch their concomitant ART prior to the visit of interest. This endpoint was analyzed using a stratified analysis with CMH weights. Percentage values are rounded off.

Time of viral suppression is defined as the first viral load value <50 c/mL. Nonparametric Kaplan-Meier method was performed. Participants who withdrew for any reason without being suppressed were censored at date of withdrawal. Participants who have not been withdrawn and have not had viral suppression at time of the analysis were censored at last viral load date. Confidence Interval (CI) was estimated using the Brookmeyer-Crowley method.

HIV-associated conditions were recorded during the study and was assessed according to the 2014 Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Classification System for HIV Infection in Adults. Disease progressions summarize participants who had HIV infection stage 3 associated conditions or death.

EQ-5D-5L questionnaire provides a profile of participant function and a global health state rating. The five-item measure has 1 question assessing each of 5 dimensions: mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression and 5 levels for each dimension including 1=no problems, 2=slight problems, 3=moderate problems, 4=severe problems and 5=extreme problems. The health state is defined by combining the levels of answers from each of the 5 questions. Each health state is referred to in terms of a 5 digit code. Health state 5 digit code is translated into utility score, which is valued up to 1 (perfect health) with lower values meaning worse state. EQ-5D-5L utility score ranges from -0.281 to 1. Higher scores indicate better health. MMRM was run on LOCF dataset. Baseline was the latest pre-dose assessment and change from Baseline=post-dose value minus Baseline value.

EQ-5D-5L questionnaire provides a profile of participant function and a global health state rating. The five-item measure has 1 question assessing each of 5 dimensions: mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression and 5 levels for each dimension including 1=no problems, 2=slight problems, 3=moderate problems, 4=severe problems and 5=extreme problems. The health state is defined by combining the levels of answers from each of the 5 questions. Each health state is referred to in terms of a 5 digit code. Health state 5 digit code is translated into utility score, which is valued up to 1 (perfect health) with lower values meaning worse state. EQ-5D-5L utility score ranges from -0.281 to 1. Higher scores indicate better health. MMRM was run on LOCF dataset. Baseline was the latest pre-dose assessment and change from Baseline=post-dose value minus Baseline value. Adjusted mean and standard error is presented.

EQ-5D-5L included EQ visual Analogue scale (EQ VAS) 'Thermometer' which provided Self-rated current health status. Score ranges from 0 (worst imaginable health state) to 100 (best imaginable health state). MMRM was run on the LOCF dataset, using the observed margins (OM) option. Baseline was the latest pre-dose assessment value and change from Baseline=post-dose value minus Baseline value.
