Purpose
This is an observational, non-comparative, multicenter, open-label study. Participants will be treated with Raltegravir according to standard clinical practice, and monitored over a total period of 96 weeks. Participants who stop taking Raltegravir before the end of the 96-week period will be followed up for three months after discontinuing the drug. The primary objective is to determine the proportion of participants with an HIV-1 viral load < 50 copies/mL after 48 weeks of treatment with Raltegravir
