Brief Summary:

This study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of cobicistat-boosted darunavir plus two fully active nucleoside analogue reverse transcriptase inhibitors in HIV 1 infected, antiretroviral treatment-naive and treatment-experienced adults with no darunavir (DRV) resistance-associated mutations.

After the Week 48 Visit, participants will be given the option to participate in an open-label rollover phase to receive cobicistat and attend visits every 12 weeks until it becomes commercially available, or until Gilead Sciences elects to terminate development of cobicistat.

Intervention/treatment

Experimental: COBI-boosted DRV; Participants will receive DRV+COBI+2 investigator-selected NRTIs for 48 weeks, and may continue their regimen in the open-label rollover phase.

Drug: COBI; 150 mg tablet administered orally with food once daily; Other Names: Tybost®; GS-9350; Drug: DRV; 800 mg (2 x 400 mg tablets) administered orally with food once daily; Other Names: Prezista®; TMC114; Drug: NRTIs; Participants will receive 2 nucleoside analogue reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs) selected by the investigator after resistance testing at screening and administered according to prescribing information. NRTIs may include emtricitabine (FTC)/tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF), zidovudine+FTC/TDF, abacavir (ABC)+TDF, ABC+FTC/TDF, ABC+lamivudine (3TC), or didanosine (DDI)+FTC.
