- Virological failure [ Time Frame: Week 24 ]Occurrence of virological failure, as verified by 2 consecutive plasma viral load measurements > 50 copies/mL, taken 2 to 4 weeks apart at most, during the first 24 weeks.
- Viro-immunological efficacy [ Time Frame: Between baseline and W48 ]
- Proportion of patients with a HIV RNA viral load < 50 copies/mL.
- Proportion of patients discontinuing the therapy:
- Plasma genotypic resistance profile where the viral load is > 50 copies/mL.
- Evaluation of DNA/RNA tropism in the event of failure.
- Evaluation of plasma HIV RNA where the viral load is < 50 copies/mL, through ultrasensitive PCR testing.
- Evolution of the CD4 and CD8 T-cell counts.
- Blood concentration of raltegravir and maraviroc.
- Tolerability criteria and metabolic impact [ Time Frame: Between baseline and W48 ]
- Changes in glucose and lipid balance.
- Changes in anthropometric measurements.
- Number and severity of clinical and biological adverse effects.
- Changes in bone mineral density and body composition, as measured by DEXA scan.
- Changes in inflammation and endothelial activation markers between baseline and W48
- Measurement of fat cells differentiation markers in adipose tissue biopsy samples
- Compliance [ Time Frame: Between baseline and W48 ]• Assessment of compliance conducted at screening and at W24 and 48.
- Quality of life [ Time Frame: Between baseline and W48 ]• Assessment of health-related quality of life conducted at baseline and at W24 and 48.

Ages Eligible for Study: | 18 Years and older (Adult, Senior) |
Sexes Eligible for Study: | All |
Accepts Healthy Volunteers: | No |
Inclusion Criteria:
- Patients infected with HIV-1 type B or CRF02.
- ≥ 18 years old
- Patients who have been receiving antiretroviral therapy for at least 5 years, and whose treatment has been stable for at least 6 months.
- Patients whose plasma viral load has been undetectable (below 200 copies/mL) over the last 24 months, and < 50 copies/mL for at least 12 months.
- Patients with an R5* tropic virus, as determined through DNA and with CD4 nadir ≥ 100/mm3
- Patients presenting with clinical lipohypertrophy recognized by themselves and by their doctors, and defined by increased volume of the abdominal and/or thoracic and/or cervical area (buffalo hump).
- Patients who have never been treated with raltegravir.
- Patients who have never been treated with maraviroc.
- Efficient contraception for women
- Free and informed written consent, signed by the patient and the investigator.
- Patients with health insurance. * To increase the certainty of selecting patients with an R5 virus, the HIV-1 tropism will be determined by the genotype method and interpreted with the Geno2pheno[coreceptor] algorithm and a false positive rate threshold for X4 virus at 20%, rather than the usual 10%.
Exclusion Criteria:
- X4, X4/5 or undetermined tropism of the HIV virus.
- HIV-2 or coinfection HIV-1/HIV-2.
- Chronic viral hepatitis B.
- Chronic viral hepatitis C requiring specific treatment over the first 24 weeks.
- Treatment with growth hormones.
- Hypolipemic or diabetes treatment, begun within the last 3 months.
- Pregnant or breastfeeding women.
- Haemoglobin < 7g/dl, neutrophils < 500/mm3, platelets < 50 000/mm3, creatinine clearance < 50 mL/min, alkaline phosphatases, ASAT, ALAT or bilirubin ≥ 3 times the upper limit of the normal range (N).
- Antiretroviral treatment associated to enzymatic inducer.
- Chronic alcohol consumption.
- Subjects under "sauvegarde de justice" (judicial protection due to temporarily and slightly diminished mental or physical faculties), or under legal guardianship.
- Subjects participating in another clinical trial evaluating different therapies and including an exclusion period that is still in force during the screening phase.
