Single-tablet regimen (STR) of darunavir 800 mg/cobicistat 150 mg/emtricitabine 200mg/GS-7340 10 mg administered orally once daily with food.
Active Comparator: darunavir + cobicistat + emtricitabine/tenofovir df
darunavir 800 mg (400mg tablet x2) + cobicistat 150mg + fixed-dose combination tablet emtricitabine 200mg/tenofovir disoproxil fumarate 300mg + Placebo to match single-tablet regimen of darunavir 800mg/cobicistat 150mg/emtricitabine 200mg/GS-7340 10mg once daily (n = 50)
Drug: darunavir + cobicistat + emtricitabine/tenofovir df

Detailed Description:

Randomized, double-blinded, multicenter, active-controlled study to assess the safety and efficacy of a regimen containing darunavir/cobicistat/emtricitabine/GS-7340 (DRV/COBI/FTC/GS-7340 administered as a single tablet regimen) versus cobicistat-boosted darunavir (DRV+COBI) plus emtricitabine/tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (Truvada® or FTC/TDF) in HIV-1 infected, antiretroviral treatment-naive adult subjects.
