Purpose
The purpose of this study is to determine if pregnancy-limited, short-term combination HIV treatment regimens -- which were used solely for the prevention of mother to child transmission of HIV and discontinued postpartum -- decreases the effectiveness of a standard initial regimen of anti-HIV drugs when subsequent treatment is needed.

- Percentage of Participants With Early Virologic Response [ Time Frame: At Week 24 ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Plasma HIV-1 Viral Load Fewer Than 400 Copies/ml
- Time to First Safety Event [ Time Frame: Throughout study ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]Time from starting study treatment to first grade 3 or 4 sign/symptom or laboratory abnormality and at least one grade higher than baseline. Grading used the Division of AIDS (DAIDS) 2004 Severity of Adverse Events Tables.
- Percentage of Participants With Early Virologic Suppression [ Time Frame: At Weeks 24 ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Plasma HIV-1 Viral Load Fewer Than 50 Copies/ml
- Percentage of Participants With Late Virologic Response [ Time Frame: At Week 48 ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Plasma HIV-1 Viral Load Fewer Than 400 Copies/ml
- Time to Initial Virologic Response [ Time Frame: Throughout study ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Time from enrollment to scheduled week of first plasma HIV-1 RNA viral load fewer than 400 copies/mL.
- Time to Initial Virological Failure [ Time Frame: Throughout study ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Virologic failure defined as two consecutive measurements of plasma HIV-1 RNA at least 400 copies/mL at or after the week 16 study visit. Time measured from enrollment.
- Time to Loss of Virologic Response by Week 48 (Defined by FDA TLOVR Algorithm) [ Time Frame: Throughout study ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
- Early Changes in CD4 Count From Baseline [ Time Frame: At weeks 0(baseline), 4, 8, 16, 24 ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Changes in CD4+ lymphocyte counts between study visit weeks 4, 8 16 and 24 and baseline.
- Percentage of Participants With Late Virologic Suppression [ Time Frame: At Week 48 ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Plasma HIV-1 Viral Load Fewer Than 50 Copies/ml
- Time to First Dose Modification [ Time Frame: Throughout study ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Time from starting study treatment to first dose/drug modification.
- Late Change in CD4 Count From Baseline [ Time Frame: At week 48 ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Change in CD4+ lymphocyte counts between week 48 study visit and baseline.

Detailed Description:
Stopping and restarting highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) is not generally recommended because it has the potential to allow drug-resistant HIV to emerge. However, to prevent mother-to-child transmission (MTCT), HIV infected women who are pregnant are temporarily put on HAART, even if HIV treatment is not indicated at the time. It is unknown if such short-term therapy affects the viral response to HAART later, when permanent therapy is clinically indicated. The purpose of this study is to determine if HAART taken to prevent MTCT during pregnancy has an effect on the ability of a standard initial regimen of HAART to suppress HIV viral load.

> Study follow-up will last for 48 weeks per participant. Participants will take a daily regimen of efavirenz and emtricitabine/tenofovir disoproxil fumarate. There will be 8 clinical visits in this study; visits will occur at baseline and at Weeks 2, 4, 8, 16, 24, 36, and 48. At each visit, a physical exam, blood and urine collection, and pregnancy tests will occur. At some visits, adherence, quality-of-life, and birth control interviews will be completed.
